Learn or practice Spanish with a native speaker (all levels)

From 25.01 £ /h

Hello!
My name is Uxía, and I am originally from Galicia, located on the northwest coast of Spain. I have been living in Finland for over 5 years. I am a native speaker of both Spanish and Galician, and I am also fluent in English. Additionally, I speak Finnish, although not as fluently. I hold a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in dietetics, and I currently work as a chef in schools while going through the process of getting my qualifications recognized.

Are you interested in learning Spanish or improving your conversational skills? Then I’m the right person for you! I am very chatty and extroverted, but also patient and calm. My lessons are tailored to each student, based on their needs and goals. Whether you want to focus on grammar, vocabulary, or conversation skills, I can adjust the lessons accordingly.

I am also experienced in working with children and adolescents, as I frequently interact with them in my work. Additionally, as a dietitian and chef, I would be happy to offer Spanish cooking lessons while teaching the language, or share tips on healthy food and cooking—all while practicing Spanish. I truly believe the best way to learn is by having fun!

Lessons can be held online, in a café, or at my place (if you choose the latter, I hope you like cats, as we have two little ones!).

Experience / Qualifications

I began my journey in nutrition through an internship with the provincial health government in Pontevedra, Spain, where I gained invaluable hands-on experience. Afterward, I worked with numerous clients as a dietitian in Spain, helping them achieve their health goals through personalized nutrition plans. For the past five years, I have also been working as a chef, specializing in preparing meals for sensitive populations and individuals with food pathologies, ensuring that even those with specific dietary needs can enjoy healthy, delicious meals.

In addition to my work in nutrition, I have a passion for teaching Spanish. I have helped children with homework and exam preparation, and since moving abroad, I’ve been teaching or reinforcing the Spanish language for kids, creating a fun and interactive learning environment.

Clases Español:
Hola muy buenas, soy estudiante universitario en España y estoy en Helsinki durante un tiempo. Soy Español y Canadiense por lo que soy nativo en ambos idiomas (español e inglés). Toda mi vida he hablado ambos idiomas y en España doy clases de Inglés por lo que tengo experiencia. Me sé adaptar a cualquier nivel ya que he estado en esa posición a lo largo de mi vida. Estoy dispuesto a dar clases tanto en persona como online, también puedo dar clases tanto individuales como grupales.

Spanish classes:
Hello, I'm a university student in Spain and I am in Helsinki for a while. I am Spanish and Canadian so I am native in both languages (Spanish and English). All my life I've spoken both languages and in Spain I teach English, so I have experience teaching. I know how to adapt to any level as I have been in that position throughout my life. I am willing to give classes both in person and online,

Espanjan tunnit:
Olen yliopisto-opiskelija Espanjassa ja olen Helsingissä jonkin aikaa. Olen espanjalainen ja kanadalainen, joten puhun äidinkielenäni molempia kieliä (espanjaa ja englantia). Koko elämäni olen puhunut molempia kieliä ja Espanjassa opetan englantia, joten minulla on kokemusta molemmista kielistä. Osaan sopeutua mihin tahansa tasoon, koska olen ollut siinä asemassa koko elämäni ajan. Olen valmis antamaan tunteja sekä henkilökohtaisesti että verkossa, voin myös antaa yksilö- ja ryhmätunteja.

Kiitos ja toivon, että voimme parantaa espanjan kielen yhdessä.

My name is Roberto , and I am a Spanish teacher for foreigners and a university student. I am fluent in English because I have lived abroad and have studied my whole life in both international and bilingual schools, which brings a lot of fluency to my classes. I am also a person with virtually unlimited patience and very calm; I strive to be well understood and have no problem explaining something several times.

Regarding Spanish classes, I can provide both colloquial and slightly more sophisticated and cultured vocabulary, applied to various contexts. My main objective in these classes is to make them as dynamic as possible, and rather than imparting a theoretical class, the methodology we will follow will be to engage in conversations as we get to know each other and share curiosities. With this approach, we will leave behind the fear of making mistakes and find a safe and comfortable space in which to develop the class.

I also have a group of teachers who will accompany us in many activities, and with whom we can join together to learn collectively.
