At the end of August, I'll send you the payment link for your first monthly installment: from there, it's 4 monthly payments of €260, and your €50 comes straight back to you with that first payment.

A couple of things to keep in mind:

  • The deposit is non-refundable if the first payment isn't made by September 1st, 2026.

  • If you change your mind before August 31st, there's no problem: just talk to me directly and I'll refund your deposit.

This is what you'll be able to do in Spanish in 4 months:

  • Say what you want, when you want it - without a second thought.

  • Talk about your weekend or holiday plans when somebody asks you about them.

  • Tell your Spanish bestie what you did last weekend -yes, in the past and without the drama.

  • Make small talk with neighbours, your portero and other moms.

  • Tell the doctor if something hurts and follow simple instructions.

  • Find the ingredients of your favourite dish at the supermarket.

  • Order the Menú del Día like a local.

  • Be able to ask normal, every day questions and know if you need to use qué, quién, dónde, cómo, etc.

And above all, feel normal speaking Spanish.

And this is how a class looks like:

  • We start with a bit of weather talk: very British, but with more sunshine and warmth (hello Spain!). And very much like real-life chit chat.

  • Then we talk about what you did last weekend or what your next weekend plans are: this way you start practicing dates, days, months, prepositions, pasts and future without a single fill-in-the-gap exercise sheet. -Yes, we do that from class 3 or 4. And yes, you'll be able to do it with my help!

  • We start with the story. One sentence and verb at a time, with lots of questions and repetition for you to absorb Spanish naturally.

    • This is where we co-create the story to make it more fun and exciting.

  • Last, you and the rest of compis (classmates) re-tell the story. First with help, then without. And as you're re-telling it, I write it down for you to read over whenever you like.

  • And then I let you go about your day, because, believe me, your brain will've worked a lot.

And just like that, you'd have spoken more Spanish than what you actually thought was possible.

"As a beginner with only high school level classes 40 years ago, I am so grateful not only for her patient style, but for her ability to meet me wherever my Spanish-speaking skills might be on a weekly basis."

"... her style of teaching -through stories and conversations - is enormously effective and engaging. Top it off with repetition, patience and and obvious care for the student, and you can't find a better person to help you with Spanish acquisition."
