Creative and structured Spanish classes for children and adults.

Hola everyone!
I have always been passionate about arts, culture, people, and traveling, and through my communicative experiences interacting with different people in different languages around the world, I have understood the essential needs when it comes to language acquisition. That is why my method is a compilation of the traditional usage of books, texts, audios, and short films, combined with PowerPoint presentations full of images, interactive games, and recreation of real-life situations in which the students will naturally learn complex grammar topics while having fun. I also create a particular relationship with each student to detect the type of learner the student is and tailor the class according to his/her personality, needs, and expectations. The class can be taught in English or Dutch but I am always aiming to expose the student to Spanish as much as possible so he/she can experience faster progress.

I am a native Spanish speaker with a bachelor's degree in Social Communication from Pontificia Javeriana University in Bogota-Colombia, ELE Spanish Teacher certified by Lola Martínez Cabrera Senior Professor from “Molinos de Viento” in Amsterdam and hold a postgraduate degree as ELE Spanish teacher from Barcelona University and International House. I have been giving private Spanish classes to adults for the last five years. For the last 10 years, I have been dealing with Spanish, English, Dutch, and German on a daily basis.

Hey there! Get ready to jump into the world of Italian with me – Roberta- your go-to person for Italian language (yes, including hand gestures!)

I have a background in diplomacy and international relations but a deep love for communications and languages.
My classes are tailored to your needs.
We do an assessment during the first chat and then we choose together the right method: classes with a mix of audio, and video lessons and or just a lot of conversation covering phrases, vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar. And guess what? It's not just learning; if you come to my house it's a blast through Italian food too! :)

By the end, you'll be rocking phrases like "Supercalifragilistichespiralidoso" and tossing around Italian words like a pro.
🎉 Ci vediamo presto!

Sitting in a classroom can be boring, why not learn Spanish walking through the beautiful city of Amsterdam, you can learn from basic to advance Spanish, focus on conversational skills cultural language. We can have a conversation about the weather, main city attractions, museums, art history, food, or anything else you want to learn in Spanish.

Hoi! My name is Diego and I am a Spanish tutor from Perú. Currently, I am a student at the Universiteit van Amsterdam. Additionally, I have a special interest in Latin American culture – which I would be happy to share with students

I design a specific learning plan for my students based on their goals and preferences.
1. Review of movies, music, and TV series.
2. Assistance with student's homework
3. Development of oral skills through conversation, presentation, and debate
4. Expansion of vocabulary and grammar skills
5. Discussion of Hispanic and Latin American politics, culture, and society

I have experience tutoring teenagers in Middle School and High School at different levels in Perú. The lessons focused on writing, pronunciation, and presentation skills in English and Spanish. I have also tutored adults who wanted to improve their fluency in Spanish.

I am an audiovisual translator, but I love to teach languages in my spare time, I can teach Spanish since it is my native language, and English. I have experience with kids. I like to prepare my classes as if they were a game, setting small goals and objectives so we don't lose hope and actually learn something every day. I can help with conversation skills, culture, vocabulary and grammar.

Hello,
My name is Paul-Antoine and I live in Amsterdam where I am a student. I am currently studying at the University of Amsterdam in the PPLE bachelor (Politics, Psychology, Law and Economics).
From French parents, I followed all my education in the French system abroad and I speak French fluently.
In these support courses which can be academic or simply an aid to the deepening of the language, I will bring my personal culture and my recent readings which will also allow the student to discover another facet of French literature. In addition, these courses are also open to those who simply want to learn French.

If you would like more information on the learning methods that I will be offering, I invite you to contact me.

Regards,
Paul Anthony

I specialize in helping students maintain a fluent conversation in Spanish using class time to improve pronunciation and fluency. At the same time, the student is provided with a practical guide where grammar will be explained and they will be able to do infinite practical exercises that help them improve their understanding and analysis of text. We also work with images, sounds and videos so that the student can recognize, interpret for themselves and improve their hearing ability. At the basic and intermediate levels I use a system where the student can listen, copy and repeat information similar to the beginning of learning their native language.
I assign homework after each lesson and report student progress month by month.

It was not until I started traveling outside of Mexico that I realized the importance of the Spanish language. It is everywhere and its enormous diversity in accents and the cultures with which the accents are attached to are what make Spanish such an interesting and entertaining language to dive into.

As I am a native speaker, and I have also focused on learning French and English, I want to help people feel more comfortable speaking Spanish and using it for all kinds of conversations, as well as understanding its grammar and vocabulary. I have been struggling learning Dutch as I am simply too shy to speak it publicly sometimes, so I understand how hard it can be to start feeling comfortable speaking a foreign language.

Hola!! I am so happy you are here, because that means you want to learn Spanish and there is nothing that would make me more happy than to help you with that!
Being a native speaker from Barcelona, Spain I will teach you important vocabulary and grammar, as well as how to talk Spanish until you sound like a native!
For me it's very important to have engaging and fun classes, so you get to feel how amazing studying Spanish really is! We will talk a lot, play games, write recipes (and maybe we can even make them)! Anything fun you can think of, we will do, but in Spanish!
Can't wait to meet you!
Hasta pronto!

Hello dear AMIGOS! My name is “Profesor Juan P”, I am from the half of the world, Yes!!, from Ecuador. I am passionate about teaching languages, and I have been teaching Spanish, both online and on site for around 6 years.

My classes are fun and dynamic, which makes them easy and enjoyable for students to learn and improve their Spanish skills. I adapt my classes to student’s needs, personalities and current moods. I truly believe that understanding a language goes beyond the usage of words; therefore, I use a lot of visual elements full of color, drawings, photographs, gesturing, facial expression and body language. Likewise, I love to use rhymes and songs, as they help students to improve their accent and intonation in an unconscious way.

I aim to teach in a manner which is artful and uncomplicated. I look forward to working with students of all ages and levels, interested in knowing another way to understand, express, and think in Spanish. Just relax and be ready to learn!

Native Spanish speaker from Mexico with a bachelor's degree in English as a second language and specialized in teaching Spanish for foreigners and 3 and a half years of experience teaching English, French and Spanish to students of all ages, I believe I have the skills and experience necessary to be an effective and engaging teacher.

I have experience using a variety of teaching methods, mainly student-centered, task-based and content-based language, including games, conversation and multimedia resources using Mayer's theory based on Multimedia Learning, to help students develop their Spanish skills in a fun and engaging way.

As a former primary school teacher and experienced Dutch teacher for adults and children, I enjoy helping others achieve their language goals.

Together we will make a plan that fits your personal needs, whether they include exam preparation (Inburgering/Staatsexamen), being able to confidently hold (informal or formal) conversations with friends and coworkers, understanding grammar rules, being able to watch Dutch TV or anything else: I will help you get there!

The lessons can be held online or on location in Amsterdam (and the surrounding area).
