Books console, calm, prepare, enrich and redeem, because they feed the intellect and spirit of the reader and teach them to have talent; nothing other than having kindness and a good heart.
- José Martí
Los libros consuelan, calman, preparan, enriquecen y redimen, porque alimentan el intelecto y el espíritu del lector y lo enseñan a tener talento, que no es otra cosa que tener bondad y buen corazón.
― José Martí

LANGUAGE Coaching
Improving your relationship with language acquisition
Through my personalized coaching, I’ll work alongside you to develop an integrated plan that meets your personal needs. I pick texts and topics that I hope will inspire so that you feel you are accessing something profound within the Spanish language. Classes are designed to be fun and leave you smiling at the end of every lesson. I often run errands with my students (particularly those just beginning to learn Spanish) like going to the grocery store. Often we turn art galleries into our classroom.
Creating a plan that works for you
Some of my clients have come to Madrid for only a few months, others for more than a year so what they need to learn in order to feel comfortable engaging within the Spanish-speaking world differs.
Some of my clients only have a couple hours/week to work with me, whilst others are eager to spend a bit of time every day over a set period of time.
My classes usually take place in cultural settings around the city, in lovely cafes or walks in local green spaces. Of course I am also available to meet with you online.
