Learn, practice, and speak Spanish with me.

"A different language is a different vision of life."  Federico Fellini

Why learn Spanish? Not only is it world's second most spoken language (with official status in 20 countries), but learning a second language opens the doors to connection and opportunities that were not there before. Another language is a bridge to rich cultural experiences and an expansion of your personal world. 

Whether you are traveling to a Spanish-speaking country, looking to freshen up and develop what you already know, or simply have an interest in learning Spanish, there is a class here for you.

Who? / ¿Quién?

A bit about me: having grown up in a household where two languages were spoken at all times, both Spanish and English are my mother tongues. My childhood and adolescence was spent in Colombia, and my adult years have taken place in Canada. I am now based out of Salt Spring Island, BC.

I hold a BFA from OCAD University in visual art and I am certified in Teaching Spanish as a Second Language from the Universidad de Externado in Bogotá. My years of teaching have encompassed a broad range of subjects, groups, and individuals of all ages and abilities. 

My art and design background has always informed the way I operate, and the same is true in my approach to teaching Spanish. Visual learning activities, illustrations, and infographics all make their way into my teaching style. My classes are structured according to your needs as a student and your level, incorporating interesting learning material and the diversity of hispanic culture worldwide. 

I can't wait to meet you and share the world of Spanish with you. 

Nos vemos pronto,

Talia
