"The only way of learning any language is through speaking, interaction, and enjoyment."

This is my key principle when I am delivering my lessons as Spanish Tutor. In order to unlock the potential from my students, my first step is to explore their Spanish level, goals, interests, and their most suitable learning ways. According to these findings I define a tailored and open study plan which it will be further develop as the student progresses. The lessons content, material, and teaching techniques are designed and created specifically to match and adapt to the needs of each student.

Over all, I prioritise the interactive, dynamic, and enjoyable teaching approach using for this purpose a wide variety of resources and materials (from the traditional readings and grammar exercises to songs, videos, flashcard games, role-games, PowerPoint presentations, short movies, pictures and photographs, debates and discussions...). In sum, I provide to my students with the tools, guidance, and necessary support to improve, in their own pace, their language and communication skills.

This interactive approach, teaching methodology and techniques are based on my 15 years experience delivering one to one, and group lessons to all levels and backgrounds (from absolute beginners to high advance speakers). My communication and Spanish Languages skills and knowledge were also obtained by studying a Journalism Degree in Spain, a Master in Spanish Languages and Literature, and a Master in Intercultural Communication.

Muchas gracias :-)

I have been studying Spanish with Vanesa since January 2021. I initially only planned to do one ten-week course to keep busy during lock-down, but Vanesa's classes have been great and I'm still studying with her 2 years later! Vanesa's classes are fun, friendly, and really well put together. Each class always has a really good mix of everything - we practice speaking, we often quickly recap a topic that we've studied before to keep it fresh, and then we learn something new! One of my favourite things about Vanesa's teaching style is that, as well as helping us to get our Spanish grammatically correct, she'll always tell us the most natural, idiomatic way that a native speaker would say things and expressions that they would use! I've learnt so much, and would really recommend Vanesa as a teacher.

Highly flexible and effective teacher for all levels. I started from basics and took intensive classes with Vanesa. When time allowed 4-8 hours a day! I needed to get to a high level of conversational and business level of Spanish. Vanesa was very flexible to my schedule and took time out to accommodate my needs and specific interest in Spanish. When time allows I take intensive classes with her to improve my Spanish and knowledge about Spanish culture.

I have worked with several Spanish teachers over the years, and I can confidently say Vanesa is by far the best Spanish teacher I have ever had! Vanesa’s classes are highly structured, and she also has an adaptable approach to teaching which has been incredibly effective and much fun. Vanesa explains grammar with deep detail and examples taken from everyday life, which makes it more digestible. Vanesa is incredibly passionate about the Spanish language and has a very deep knowledge about Spanish culture, history, books, music theatre. Conservation classes are much fun as you can talk to Vanesa about anything! Having a native teacher is a huge advantage! I would highly recommend Vanesa to anyone at any level or objective to learn Spanish! 10/10
