With about 4 years of experience as a Spanish Teacher, one of my passions in life is the opportunity to share knowledge constantly, as well as, to help individuals eager to improve even when some details appear to be insignificant.
At the age of 19, I formally started working as a professor of Exact Sciences at the Stephen W. Hawking Institute in Ecuador, my home country.
We all should be determined to find an objective/career that would be our passion and reflects our life goal as well. This perspective encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone to move to USA thanks to an Ecuadorian scholarship which financed the commencement of my journey in Environmental Eng. focusing on Nanotechnology at Vincennes Univ. IN. There, I had a training at different Departments as a STEM, English and Spanish tutor; which eventually, gave me the chance to learn about the teaching-learning process of Higher Level English and Spanish Classes from Basic Level Classes (focused on the four skills) to Composition I, Composition II, Speech, etc ; from 2015-2018.
This past year, I had the chance to gain experience as a Spanish professor for students of all ages. Being a bilingual professional gives me a peculiar characteristic about my teaching techniques, because I have the experience of how challenged could be to learn a completely new language, as well as, the satisfaction to feel this new language as your own. Assuredly, obstacles really do not matter when we strive for more knowledge and innovation because the universe always falls in love with a stubborn soul.
So let's get started, all ages are welcome!.
About Elizabeth T.
I am a Science teacher besides my experience as an English and Spanish tutor, about 13 years of experience in this field. I graduated from Vincennes University with an Associate Degree in Environmental and Ecological Engineering. Currently, I am pursuing my Bachelor Degree in Environmental Engineering at The National Polytechnic University, also known as EPN in Quito, Ecuador.
At the age of 19, I started working as a professor of Abstract Reasoning and Exact Sciences at Stephen W. Hawking Institute in Ecuador, my home country. Eventually, I had the opportunity of training at different Departments as a STEM , Spanish and English tutor at Vincennes Univ., IN, USA from 2016 to 2018.
I strongly believe that we all should be determined to find a career that would be our passion and reflects our life goal as well. This perspective encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone to become a scholarship student sponsored by Ecuador’s government on 2015; that very August, I started my studies at USA. That opportunity represented the commencement that I was looking for my journey Environmental Eng. focused on Nanotechnology.
All these once in a lifetime events have maked me realize that one of my passions in life is the opportunity to share knowledge constantly, as well as, to help individuals eager to improve even when some details appear to be insignificant. Indeed, the process of teaching-learning actually represents such an enriching academic and personal experience.
Assuredly, obstacles really do not matter when we strive for more innovation and knowledge, because the universe always falls in love with a stubborn soul; so let's get started!

The instructor was very knowledgeable and great for anyone new to learning to speak Spanish. Highly recommended.

I love how the curriculum is laid out. It's easy to know what we're going to be working on each class, and Elizabeth makes sure to send me emails with homework or information for our next lessons. She is able to cover a lot of material in a short amount of time, and takes the time to plan out lessons.


Miss Elizabeth teaches me AP Calculus. She uses the lesson time effectively to go through problems with me and teaches me tips and tricks to do the math efficiently.

Elizabeth is a great teacher. She helped me to improve my speaking and writing skills. Without her help, I wouldn't have been able to get the TOEFL score that I needed to apply for a Master's degree.

Elizabeth is a wonderful tutor. She was very organized and was able to always help me with my chemistry questions. She was very detailed on how she explained a certain concept, and was very patient with me. She does everything she can to ensure that you succeed in the subject!

Elizabeth has been a fantastic Spanish instructor. Not only does she provide the basics for grammar but also context for when and where expressions are used, which is just as useful as learning the technical language. She’s also been extremely accommodating if I’ve had to change the schedule, so I would definitely recommend Elizabeth for anyone looking for help brushing up or starting Spanish for the first time!

Elizabeth is nice. However, she is unreliable. She no called/no showed on our first lesson. We decided to give her another chance. Her instruction was ok, if unable to veer from her planned lesson. Then, she again no called/no showed on us.

Instructor was very patient while I was having difficulties with the video chat.

Elizabeth is doing a great job teaching our 11th grader chemistry!



Really great first lesson. My son was saying terms all night with a smile on his face. I can't wait to see his progress 1yr from now.

She was very kind, extremely prepared, and very easily accessible by email. Great tutor.

1st class with Ms.Elizabeth was great..looking forward for more classes.



She has done a great job of teaching me spanish in the areas I was struggling w/. She is also very prompt and courteous when it comes to scheduling.

Elizabeth is an absolute delight! She’s so patient with her students, and flexible with timing, which has been so helpful to me. She not only provides grammar help, but also cultural insights. Highly recommended for any Spanish learner at any level!

Elizabeth is a very patient teacher; I enjoyed her lesson!

Very helpful and friendly


Elizabeth is an excellent conversational Spanish tutor for my 11 and 10 year old children. She is patient and fluent in Spanish and English. We are happy about the curriculum she created for the kids as well. We are so pleased with our kids progress, that we signed up for two lessons per week.


Ms. Elizabeth is thorough in her explanations of calculus, going to different depths and taking on different sources for mastering the mathematical techniques. She is always well-prepared and ready to teach.


Elizabeth is very nice and patience. Price is the lowest on site.

Elizabeth is a great teacher with patience and experience.
Elizabeth is very patient and encouraging. I have learned a lot from Elizabeth T. during the few lessons that I have taken so far. She also gives me lots of resources to learn more Spanish between lessons. I am very happy with the lessons.


Elizabeth is an amazing teacher. Yes I mean teacher because she is teaching me a lot that I did not know. She explains things very well and really uses real world techniques for me to become as fluent as I possibly can. I can not recommend her enough.


Wonderful instructor, patient and makes it very simple to follow her.

She´s an excellent teacher who knows her stuff very well and is able to explain thoroughly. I´ve taken a great liking to her way of teaching very much so, it has been very beneficial!

Elizabeth is great! She is very patient and makes sure that you understand the material before moving on. I really appreciate how she customizes her lesson plans based on your level of comfort and understanding.

Elizabeth is very professional and well organized with her lesson plan. She takes her time to make sure you understand what she is teaching. It's not rushed, she moves at your pace. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to learn Spanish.
