¡Bienvenid@s!
Me llamo Julieta. I have 20 years of experience teaching Spanish and Latin American culture in my native Argentina, and in universities and schools on the East Coast and the Pacific Northwest.
My philosophy as an instructor emphasizes mimic, visuals & self-discovery over mechanical translations, and sees grammar as a means, not an end in itself. We don’t spend precious class time doing ditto sheets or following a textbook. Instead, we develop meaningful tools to help us communicate, building upon our mutual input and guided exchanges.
Spanish cannot be separated from the cultures in which it lives, which is why in my classes I use cultural artifacts such as songs, poems, stories, memes and comics of the Spanish-speaking world.
We can meet online or in person in the Seattle area. Class materials are provided.
I hope my classes will help people connect across countries and continents in their love for this beautiful language.
¡Gracias y hasta pronto!

The goal of this packet is to mimic the immersion experience you would have if you lived surrounded by Spanish speakers. By maximizing your daily contact with the language and practicing all the skills (speaking, listening comprehension, reading and writing), you keep your brain engaged and "immersed" in the language.
You need to be willing to dedicate time to practice at least 3-4 times a week, if not daily. More intense customized packages are also available, so please reach out and ask. I also teach group lessons. If you prefer, single classes are also available at $55 per 60-minute lesson. |
