Method

Three steps. Zero improvising.

Every student is different, but the way we work is always the same: first I get to know you, then I build your plan, and from there every lesson moves you one step forward.

01

We get to know each other

A first lesson to find out where you are, what you need and what you’ve been missing so far. No tests, just talking.

  • We talk about your goals and why you’re learning Spanish.
  • I listen to how you speak to find your real level.
  • You tell me what hasn’t worked for you until now.

Your plan and your resources

I design a plan for you, and you follow it consistently with the material I give you, reinforcing it with the resources on this website.

  • A plan made for your level and your goals.
  • Materials from our lessons to work with between classes.
  • Extra practice with the resources on this website.

03

Lesson, practice, review

Every lesson ends with new material to practise. Next time we go over it together and take the step that comes next.

  • Conversation and clear explanations in every lesson.
  • New material to practise after each class.
  • We review it together and decide the next step.

And between lessons, you keep going.
