My name is Ana and I can't wait to meet you! If you are ready to learn Spanish, I would be happy to make that experience fun and enriching. I have been teaching Spanish since 2007 and I have truly enjoyed helping my students reach their goals. I worked for 5 years in the USA (San Diego State University and Georgetown University) as a Spanish Lecturer. After that, I worked again as a Spanish instructor for different schools in the Netherlands and I did the transition to online teaching more than 6 years ago. I have completed two Master's programs (Spanish linguistics / Teaching Spanish as a Second Language) and together with my experience, they have truly helped me to explore and develop my potential. I am a motivated and dynamic teacher, and I believe that all students can learn a second language if they are challenged and encouraged. I like to create interesting and useful activities and to make grammar as simple as possible. Languages are essentially a tool to communicate and that is why I design my lessons to give students plenty of opportunities to use Spanish during our sessions. I also provide my students with structure and guidance because they are truly helpful to get in the right path. In addition, I select and prepare a good amount of homework to do between lessons. I work with many resources to make homework engaging and dynamic. I might be forgetting something so, I will be happy to answer to any question you still may have about the lessons.

I absolutely appreciate Ana as my Spanish teacher. She is patient and friendly and always very well prepared. Thus far it has been a very rewarding experience for me. I highly recommend Ana.
Ana is an excellent teacher and an even more wonderful person. I feel incredibly fortunate to have her as my guide in learning Spanish. Ana is organized, professional, and well prepared. Learning from her has been a bright spot that I look forward to every week. She truly is, the best instructor.
Teaching is a talent and Ana has it. She is incredibly patient, understanding, and focused with passion for her job. She knows her stuff and is adept at helping a new person understand what is being taught. She is also great at listening and understanding one's level to adapt to your personal needs. One of the things that makes a teacher great. I highly recommend Ana.
