Story
I’m a native Spanish speaker from El Salvador who needed to learn English when moving to the USA as an adult, so I know first-hand how frustrating and rewarding learning a foreign language can be. My passion and mission are helping others break the language barrier so they can enjoy the gift of speaking Spanish with ease.

Testimonials
“It has been great working with Tania to learn Spanish. With her lessons, I improve my ability to read, speak, and hear Spanish. I really like how she helps me improve my pronunciation when I read passages. She adjusts lessons to focus on areas where I need a little more help. There is a nice mix of reading, exercises, and online activities. Because of Tania, I appreciate the culture of Spanish-speaking people and this beautiful language even more.”
“I have enjoyed Tania’s enthusiasm, patience, and professionalism which have contributed to a positive and fun learning experience. I have particularly enjoyed my exposure to the various cultural practices and rituals of Spanish-speaking countries around the world.”
“It is a sincere pleasure working with Tania. We have been having weekly conversations for a few years now. She continues to be the perfect guide for learning Spanish. She speaks a lovely neutral dialect of Spanish, thoroughly understands Spanish language theory, and can articulate it lucidly in either Spanish or English. Her academic grounding in Spanish has proven very helpful. Teaching Spanish is something of an art (much more than just being able to speak the language). This is why I appreciate Tania’s tutelage. Tania has really helped me progress in terms of expressing and understanding Spanish.”
“I have been studying with Tania for more than two years and look forward to our hour-long session every week. Each week I learn something new and have the opportunity to speak Spanish with a native speaker while focusing on my grammar. Tania offers a wide variety of activities throughout the classes and has a gentle way of helping me recognize where I can refine my Spanish speaking, listening, and writing skills. The lessons and Tania’s encouragement have made me a more confident Spanish speaker and student!”
“My experience working with Tania has been wonderful – She is not only super helpful and has given me way more confidence with my conversational Spanish, but she is also just a generally lovely person to interact with. She puts up with all my jokes and mistakes, and makes the learning process fun. I feel like I am getting a ton out of our lessons, and I feel so much closer to reaching my goals of speaking fluently in Spanish!”
“Tania is a patient, organized, well-prepared and imaginative Spanish coach who works hard to ensure that our sessions are both varied and highly engaging. I especially appreciate that she is highly skilled at giving feedback. I never feel overwhelmed with the amount of feedback I receive. At the same time, not a lesson goes by when I don’t feel that I have gained a better understanding of a tricky grammar point or a confusing sentence construction. I look forward to our lessons and am amazed how quickly the time flies by.”
“My experience with Tania has been excellent. I have worked with a few tutors and taken many Spanish classes, and Tania is far away at the top of the list. I always feel comfortable and supported with her teaching style. She is so encouraging and positive. The lessons have helped me overcome my timidity in speaking Spanish with others. If you truly desire to speak Spanish, Tania is the tutor for you.”
“I have been working with Tania for some time, and she has taken me from being hesitant to use Spanish with my fellow Latinos to being quite comfortable with it. Recently, I spoke to a Mexican-American friend in Spanish after not having done so in over a year. If anything, I think she was the only one to reach for English words. She was extremely impressed with my improvement, which I credit to my conversations with Tania and her help in improving my grammar, vocabulary, and fluency in spoken and written Spanish. Tania won’t let you down, and she’s a terrific person as well. She clearly loves both the language itself and teaching it to others. Regardless of whether you’re a complete beginner or (like me) someone who heard the language as a child but then stopped using it and lost fluency, Tania will help you improve dramatically. I could not recommend her more highly.”
