    Language Coach

    Hola, I’m Kelly and I’m Cuban. 🇨🇺 I’ve been working with non-native Spanish speakers for about a year now.

    My passions are languages, cooking, and writing. Besides Spanish, I also speak English and beginner French. Currently, I am in college studying a BBA degree taught in English, so I understand how difficult it is to learn a new language and the challenges of communicating with native speakers.

    That’s why I have a lot of patience to teach and a few tricks I’d like to share that will make learning easier. My teaching style involves lots of conversation and learning through examples.

    The most important thing in class is having a positive attitude, the rest will come along the way.

    If you want to learn how we speak Spanish in Cuba or simply improve your Spanish skills I am here to help you achieve your goal!

    Hola, I’m Maribel from Medellín, Colombia 🇨🇴 and I live in Montréal, Canada. I have been teaching Spanish since 2020.

    I have done several certifications, and I’m studying a master’s in neuroscience applied to pedagogy.

    I’m passionate about languages and how they can be the key to open new doors. Yes, that sounds very cliché, but that’s how I see it.

    I want to show you how beautiful our Latin American culture is. Let’s learn together!
