Acquire Spanish with Comprehensible Input (CI) through stories
I’m originally from Argentina and I started teaching Spanish after I got a Fulbright scholarship to come to teach in the USA.
I have almost 20 years of experience teaching Spanish and English in classrooms, as a private tutor, and online.
I love to make my lessons fun and memorable using interesting materials, songs and games.
I make most of the material I use and I always focus on helping students acquired the language (not study it).
I can help you improve your exam scores, get ready for that upcoming trip abroad, or simply learn Spanish for fun!

Matias is personable, friendly, and professional. He has experience teaching diverse age groups and is able to quickly assess students' learning needs. Lessons are fun and reinforced with optional learning activities provided by Matias between lessons. I highly recommend this teacher.
