About Me

¡Qué onda! I'm Uriel, from Mexico City. I teach Mexican Spanish to people who understand the language but freeze up when it's time to speak, and I get you out of that with a structured method, not improvised chats.

About me
8 years teaching Spanish. Before that, I was a civil engineer — which means my method is logical and step-by-step, not random. Neutral Mexican accent, easy to understand from day one.

What's included

A learning plan built around your actual goal, not a generic course
55-60 min sessions focused on real conversation, not isolated grammar drills
Homework and extra practice sent after every class, so the week keeps working
Direct message access between classes if you get stuck on something
Progress tracking, so you actually see where you're improving

What are you looking for?

You want to actually talk to your partner's family, not just nod along at dinner
You're planning a trip to Mexico and want to order, ask, and joke around without switching to English
People switch to English on you the second you hesitate, and you're tired of it
You understand Spanish but freeze up speaking → we turn what you already know into natural conversation
You need Spanish for work → interviews, presentations, professional communication, built fast

Trial lesson before any package. We'll find out where you're at and build the plan from there.

My trial lessons

We start with a relaxed conversation to talk about your goals, why you're learning Spanish and what you actually want to do with it. Then we move into a few activities that show me exactly where you're strong and where you're stuck. If you're just starting out, no problem, we'll speak in clear, advanced English so you're never lost, with Spanish woven in as you're ready for it. From there, we build a personalized plan around your real goal, not a generic course.
