    About Janet Prado

    Hi everyone! My name is Janet, and I have been teaching Spanish for over 20 years, and I love it. My specialties include helping others become fluent in Spanish in 3–6 months. I have helped over 100 students ages 5 to 60 learn Spanish and have fun. I help my students first with the basics of Spanish, which are SER and ESTAR, in the first lesson because these are the foundations of Spanish that are used to describe yourself or other people. ESTAR (location) to identify the location you are in or other people. After that, I teach my students how to start implementing vocabulary in their immediate environment by placing stickies in their kitchen, bathroom, living room, bedroom, office, and any other immediate environment they attend to on a daily basis. From there, we expand on more vocabulary and more verbs, and we use many examples to do this. I also assign my students audio, such as a podcast, that they can listen to. For every lesson, I will also always assign homework. The practice they do outside of the classroom is very important. I took many classes in high school, such as Spanish I, II, III, and AP Spanish, and received a 3.95 GPA. Also in college, I took advanced Spanish classes. The advanced classes that I took in college were advanced grammar, writing, and reading. To this day, I continue to improve my skills to provide value to my students. When I was in high school, I taught beginners Spanish, as this was the first time I started teaching others for free. At the University of the Pacific, I taught Spanish to others for 5 years as a tutor around my full-time schedule as a student. After college, I started teaching 1:1 lessons to students, adults, and professionals around my full-time job. My first advanced student was a lawyer, and she wanted to implement learning Spanish in the workplace. As I continued my Spanish journey, I started taking on more students on a monthly basis. I look forward to helping you take the next steps to learning Spanish starting today. Book a package today and get a discount!

    I had a great first lesson with Janet today and she is so supportive and is really a great teacher. I am excited about continuing and also thankful for the extra time she dedicated today in order to finish the lesson material.

    I've had a few lessons with Janet and she’s amazing! I like that she started me out with the basics. I also appreciate her patience. If my pronunciation is incorrect, Janet patiently corrects my pronunciation. That’s really important. Now, I feel more confident speaking short, simple sentences and phrases. I have really enjoyed learning with Janet and am looking forward to future classes. If you need to learn or even work on your Spanish, I highly recommend that you book a session with Janet.

    Our 11 year old son enjoys his lessons with Janet. He is a real beginning, and I wanted him to get a head start on learning Spanish before school starts. He has learned quite a bit in only a few lessons. Janet is energetic, fun and patient, as well as organized. I would recommend her highly.
