About Pattricia F.
4.8
(95)
Hello, I am originally from Colombia, South America.
Spanish is my mother tongue.
All my life, I have studied and practiced this language.
From an early age, I start to write plays, poems, articles, and essays. Read is one of my passions.
I am a musician.
I hold a BM in Music Education, Voice Performance, and Pedagogy from Universidad del Valle.
Everyone can acquire a new language if approached correctly.
It is the same about a musical instrument or singing.
Be amazed; curiosity and fun are vital to learning anything at any age.
Whether it be to learn Spanish, voice, piano, guitar, or English, I will be happy to team up with you.

My Bio:
I have performed Salsa, Soft Rock, and Traditional Latin Music in large South American concert venues, stadiums, and coliseums. With my father's influence and his international operatic and concert career, I revealed my passion for the operatic stage singing in the Coloratura Soprano repertoire in roles as Gilda in Verdi’s Rigoletto and the title role in Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor, as well as my passion for the guitar playing the classical, jazz and international repertoire.
The study of languages was always a constant in my home. Spanish, English, and Italian were constant study and practice topics during my childhood, becoming a professional field for me nowadays.
I hold a BM and Artists degree in Vocal Performance and Music Education from the Universidad del Valle of Cali, Colombia – South America.
I have been working for over 20 years on Auditive-synchronization and neuro-chronaxia technique that helps sing in tune and confidently.

It was a pleasure meeting Ms. Patricia! I enjoyed our meeting session in which she assessed what was going to be the best teaching/learning method for me and what I could anticipate from her as my second language coach in future sessions. Looking forward to diving in to some Spanish on our next meeting! Thank you so much Ms. Patricia!

Patricia is hands down the absolute best!!! My 15 year old son looks forward to his lessons every week. Patricia is so fun and enthusiastic about teaching. I would recommend her to everyone.
