I am a linguist with a degree in Translation and Interpreting for Spanish, English, and German. I am a specialist in phonetics and learning with a broad understanding of linguistics and experience studying 15 languages at different levels. Yes, I can teach you how to talk like a native! I have six years of professional experience, and I am currently teaching Spanish on iTalki. Are you looking for an efficient approach to learning Spanish? I would love to meet new students like you who want to have 2+ lessons per week. That’s why my lesson packages are big: there needs to be perseverance and commitment for anyone to master a language. At the moment I offer four kinds of lessons. This is the optimal order you should follow: 1. Phonetics: The best way to get acquainted with a new language is to learn how to pronounce its sounds. You need to know what each sound sounds like, to be able to tell the difference between them, to learn how to produce them individually, and to practice them. My take on phonetics is thorough: I have done extensive research only to offer this knowledge to you, and the results are stunning. 2. Language Course for Beginners: A conceptual approach to your new language which includes a comprehensive and deep introduction to each aspect of it (including relevant grammar topics). Here I will guide you from zero knowledge to actually being able to have a conversation. I will suggest best practices, spot your mistakes and focus your learning process on what truly matters in order to achieve a very high level. 3. Conversation and Coaching: This is the last stage. You already know how to pronounce and how the language works, but you need to extend your vocabulary and test your knowledge. 4. Pronunciation Practice: You can take these lessons anytime! Although you will get much more value out of them if you go through my Phonetics lessons before. I want to be your coach. :)
