We stand out for:
Empathy
The model student or the perfect teaching method do not exist, we work with people and language is alive and often spontaneous. Hence, being able to adapt to students’ needs and pace is key to understanding their struggles and helping them learn easier. Putting yourself in someone’s shoes is easier when you’ve had the same experience. Putting yourself in someone’s shoes is easiest when you have had the same experience ; empathize with the student’s situation helps tremendously our job. We believe that the teacher’s figure in the acquisition of a new language, with everything it implies, is central, and empathy, understanding and sympathy are essential to reach student’s objectives.
Passion
We do not know if work gives dignity, but what we know for sure is that doing a job you love is almost like not working, turning your passion into a job is a privilege and we’re fully aware of that. Our work allows us to travel without moving, interact with people on a daily basis, get to know different ways of seeing the world, break barriers, create bonds, and many more things, all interesting, fulfilling and entertaining. Our job is filled with life and human relationships and it requires loads of energy and dedication to make it work ; to give is our motivation, to do it with excitement and passion our pride.
Professionalism
Pedagogue, native and philologist (language graduate), three essential requirements to be a good Spanish teacher, even though not necessary in this order. We benefit from a thorough experience in teaching ELE (Español Lengua Extranjera — Spanish for foreigners), from advanced theoretical grammar to communicative skills (reading, listening, writing and speaking), and for all levels, from A1 to C2. Our courses are created according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Moreover, we think a good teacher has to adapt to their students and answer all their needs, while remaining fully professional and in charge of the class’ organization. We’re used to working with all kinds of students from all over the world, with different academic, linguistic and cultural backgrounds. We’re not just native Spanish speakers, but rather professional teachers who know how to navigate the intricacies of the Spanish language and explain them in the simplest way possible.

“ Before moving to Spain, English was the only language that I could speak. My previous experience with school and teachers wasn’t so good (especially with foreign languages) so naturally, I was a little anxious when starting classes. After my first lesson with Rosa, my whole perspective changed. She spoke in a way that I could understand and follow, despite the fact I barely had level A1 Spanish. Rosa has a wealth of knowledge and experience, which is reflected through her ability to explain complicated grammar structures simply and effectively and answer questions. When speaking with her, it feels like speaking with a friend. She is funny, caring and committed. It was a pleasure to be taught by Rosa and I give her a lot of credit for my abilities today. I now have Spanish friends, a Spanish speaking job, and am able to navigate my life in Barcelona with ease. Gracias por todo, te aprecio mucho y todo lo que has hecho por mi”

“Изучаю испанский в группе уровня B2 у Розы, занятия всегда проходят в уютной и дружеской атмосфере. Мы разбираем грамматику, обсуждаем новые слова и выражения и очень много практикуем изученный материал, как в формате упражнений, чтения, так и диалога. Отличный баланс между формальным изучением новых тем и живым общением на различные темы позволяет всесторонне углублять знание языка. Так как занятия проходят в мини-группе (до 5 человек), есть возможность переодически вспоминать ранее пройденные темы, если у кого-то есть сомнения по употреблению в речи. Роза очень внимательный преподаватель, профессионал своего дела и прекрасный человек. Я очень довольна и всем рекомендую эту школу!”
