Spanish for Travelers — Survive (and thrive) anywhere in Latin America

From 35 £ /h

You've booked the ticket. Now make sure you can actually talk to people when you get there.

This course is for travelers heading to Latin America who want real, practical Spanish — not textbook exercises. We focus on the conversations you'll actually need: bargaining at markets, asking for directions (and understanding the answer), ordering food, making friends at a hostel, navigating buses and border crossings, and handling the unexpected.

What we cover:
• Survival phrases and pronunciation that locals actually understand
• Regional slang and how it changes from Mexico to Argentina
• Numbers, time, transport, food, accommodation
• How to be polite, funny, and direct in Spanish
• Emergency phrases you hope you never need — but should have

Classes are conversational from day one. No boring grammar drills. You'll practice with real scenarios from the road.

I'm a native Spanish speaker with deep knowledge of Latin American culture. Whether you're spending a week in Colombia or 6 months backpacking South America, I'll get you talking with confidence.

Flexible scheduling. Online via video call.

Business Spanish — Negotiate, present, and build real relationships in Spanish

46 £ /h

Speaking Spanish at work is more than vocabulary — it's about trust, tone, and knowing the cultural codes that make deals happen.

This course is designed for professionals who work with Spanish-speaking clients, partners, or teams in Latin America or Spain. We focus on what actually comes up in a business context: meetings, presentations, negotiations, emails, small talk, and relationship-building.

What we cover:
• Business vocabulary across sectors (finance, tech, law, trade, development)
• How to run or participate in meetings and conference calls
• Presentation language: how to open, structure, and close persuasively
• Professional email writing and written communication
• Negotiation language and diplomatic phrasing
• Cultural norms: formality levels, how decisions are made, what builds trust
• LinkedIn and professional networking in Spanish

Classes are taught using real business materials — emails, reports, decks — from your industry when possible. The goal is fluency in the contexts where it counts.

I'm a native Spanish speaker with extensive experience in international organizations and government contexts across Latin America. I understand professional Spanish not just as a language but as a tool for getting things done.

Lessons are 1-on-1, fully tailored to your role and goals. Online or in-person (Tel Aviv area).

Dear student / Querido alumno:

My name is Denise. I am a Mexican Spanish as a Foreign Language (ELE) teacher certified by the Escuela Internacional Cervantes and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Spanish Literature from the University of Nuevo León (UANL, Mexico).

I began tutoring Spanish at an early age, initially helping classmates improve their academic performance, and later formalizing my teaching practice during my university studies.

For the past seven years, I have been teaching Spanish in both America and Europe, working with children, teenagers, and adult learners in academic tutoring, in-company training, online instruction, and professional language support.

My teaching approach is structured, adaptive, and goal-oriented. Lessons are designed according to the student’s level and specific objectives, with a clear focus on progress and consistency.

Students receive guided practice, exercises, and curated learning materials as part of their learning process. I work with a variety of resources, including textbooks, videos, podcasts, and newspapers, depending on the learning goal.

Depending on your needs, we can focus on grammar, academic Spanish, professional communication, or structured conversational practice with topics such as culture, arts, politics, and society.

I invite you to contact me so we can define your learning goals and build a consistent study plan together.

I help both for private purposes, business and for school. My lessons are mainly result-oriented. It is my intention to achieve a maximum result in a pleasant way. I have already helped many children, young people and adults.

My name is Dani and I am Mexican. I always ask my students about their specific goals and their preferred way of learning a language. In my classes I like to take a conversational approach, but this depends entirely on the needs of my students. I use different books with different didactic material, mostly Aula Plus and Bitacora. I also try to practice all skills: talking, writing and listening. If the student wants it, I leave homework, which I correct during the week before the next lesson, so that we can make the most of the lesson time. I share a word or phrase of the week with my students to build a useful vocabulary. Teaching is my passion. I feel motivated by the progress of my students, which I believe also keeps them motivated. German and Spanish are my native languages and I speak fluent English, I also speak fluent Dutch (with a little accent). Therefore, I can explain concepts in all these languages. However, I prefer to speak Spanish as much as possible, also for the beginners lessons, because I believe that people learn the language better that way.

I have a FPELE certificate: Spanish as a Foreign Language Teacher Training. And I have taught A1 to B2 level at a language institute in Spain.

Hello, I am a qualified Spanish teacher, specialized in the field of teaching Spanish as a foreign language (Master in Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language at the International University of La Rioja, Spain). Today, I have more than 10 years of experience as a teacher.

During the first lesson we will talk about the following topics:
- We will get to know each other and define your objectives;
- Evaluate your level of knowledge;
- Explain my learning methods based on your skills;
- Present books, workbooks (PDF format) and other educational materials.

After each educational period, a report is prepared with all the material learned and worked on in class. Classes take place on Skype or Zoom.

We will discover the Spanish language by following the communicative approach where conversation plays a central role. Together, we will explore grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation, while navigating the cultural dimension of the language.

Do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested in the courses. See you soon!
