About Me
I’m Lucía. I was born in the sunny south of Spain and have traveled the world, living in several countries. Along the way, I met Spanish learners who sparked my passion for teaching. This led me to earn a Master’s degree in Teaching Spanish and to fully dedicate myself to sharing not only the language, but also the rich cultural heritage of my country.
I’m currently pursuing a PhD in Applied Linguistics for Language Teaching, while teaching at an academy and working as a DELE Examiner at the Instituto Cervantes in Japan. And that’s not all—I also prepare students for the SIELE and DELE exams, from level A1 all the way to C2!
Want to master Spanish in any situation? My classes are fun, personalized, and always focused on your goals!
