I am passionate about helping students because I've been a student my whole life! Even though I'm a professor now, I love to learn. And now that I have experience, I love to help others along the learning journey. I have degrees in English and education from Rice University, UT Austin, Texas State, and Texas A&M. I also studied abroad in England at the University of East Anglia and have traveled to many countries. I tutor English and Spanish (my family is from Mexico City). My favorite thing to tutor is writing, and I have taught writing from the Kindergarten-graduate school (Ph.D.) level (what I currently do). I am here to share tools and tips to help you succeed in your learning journey.

Chemistry trained Shawn to memorize complex nomenclature systems and spot structural patterns — skills that transfer surprisingly well to learning Spanish vocabulary roots and conjugation frameworks. He approaches the language analytically, breaking down verb endings and grammatical rules into repeatable patterns the same way he'd teach students to balance equations. Rated 4.9 by students.

Martina learned Spanish as a second language herself before teaching it professionally in British schools, so she understands exactly where English speakers stumble — subjunctive triggers, ser versus estar, preterite versus imperfect. She builds lessons around active use of the language, pushing students to produce sentences and think in Spanish from the very first session. Rated 4.8 by students.

Gabriela is a native Spanish speaker who has taught math entirely in Spanish across multiple grade levels, giving her a practical command of academic vocabulary, verb conjugation in context, and sentence structure. Her Master's in Math Education means she understands how to break down complex grammar rules the same way she'd scaffold a tough equation — step by step, building on what a student already knows.

Sam treats Spanish grammar the way he approaches any structured system: by identifying the underlying patterns — verb conjugation families, pronoun placement rules, subjunctive triggers — so students can generate correct sentences instead of relying on memorized phrases. His analytical mindset, sharpened through pre-law study, translates surprisingly well to untangling tricky constructions like the difference between por and para.

Elizabeth teaches Spanish across multiple levels, from foundational verb conjugations in the present tense through subjunctive mood and complex sentence structures. Her engineering background gives her a systematic way of breaking down grammar rules into logical patterns that stick, making the jump from translating word-by-word to thinking in Spanish feel manageable.

Teaching Spanish across four proficiency levels — from introductory grammar through advanced conversation — gives Orestes a clear picture of where each student's comprehension actually sits. He digs into verb conjugation patterns, pronoun placement, and sentence construction with enough repetition and context that students internalize the rules instead of just translating word by word from English.

Andrea's Spanish instruction covers everything from conjugation patterns in the preterite and imperfect tenses to building the vocabulary needed for reading comprehension and composition. Having studied Spanish through advanced levels herself, she explains grammar rules by showing how they function in real sentences rather than drilling isolated verb charts. Students rated her 4.9 out of 5.0.

Two awards from the National Spanish Exam and a passing score on the AP Spanish Language and Culture exam back up Samuel's command of the language. He tackles everything from verb conjugation patterns to reading comprehension, connecting grammar rules to how Spanish is actually spoken so the structures make intuitive sense. Rated 5.0 by students.

Learning Spanish means internalizing verb conjugations, gendered nouns, and sentence structures that don't map neatly onto English — and that's just the grammar side. Alma teaches across all four levels of Spanish coursework, so she understands the progression from present-tense basics to subjunctive mood and beyond. She adapts each session to whether a student needs drilling on preterite vs. imperfect or practice constructing longer spoken responses.

I'm 18 years old and I am a sophomore at Fordham University. I promise I won't disappoint!

Isaiah teaches Spanish with an emphasis on building real comprehension, not just conjugation drills. Whether a student is wrestling with the subjunctive mood or struggling to keep preterite and imperfect straight, he connects grammar rules to how Spanish is actually spoken and written. He covers Spanish 1 through 3 and scored high enough on the SAT Subject Test in Spanish with Listening to tutor it.

Aditi teaches Spanish with an emphasis on building grammar systematically — verb conjugations, pronoun usage, sentence structure — so students can construct their own sentences instead of relying on memorized phrases. She covers beginner through intermediate levels and connects vocabulary to real-world contexts that make retention easier.

Having tutored Spanish formally throughout high school and studied it through advanced levels, Christopher tackles everything from subjunctive mood conjugations to nuanced reading comprehension passages. He treats grammar as a logical system — similar to how he approaches engineering problems at Harvard — which makes verb tenses and pronoun placement click for students who struggle with rote memorization.

Six months living in Spain turned Rebecca from a classroom Spanish learner into a fluent speaker, and that transition shapes how she teaches the language now. She breaks down verb conjugations, pronoun placement, and subjunctive triggers by connecting them to how Spanish is actually spoken in daily life — not just how it appears in a textbook. Rated 4.5 by students.

Samantha teaches Spanish across multiple levels, from foundational verb conjugations and noun-adjective agreement through advanced grammar like the subjunctive mood and complex sentence structures. Her analytical approach — honed through a Duke science education — treats language acquisition as a system to decode rather than a list to memorize.

Learning Spanish verb conjugations in isolation rarely sticks — Gabriel instead anchors grammar concepts like the subjunctive and preterite/imperfect distinction in real reading passages and conversation so students see how the language actually works. His background spans Spanish 2 through AP-level coursework, and his humanities PhD at the University of Chicago keeps him immersed in multilingual scholarship.

Conjugation tables only get you so far — Ian builds Spanish skills by connecting grammar rules to actual usage patterns so students can construct sentences on the fly, not just recognize them on a worksheet. He's comfortable covering everything from foundational Spanish 1 vocabulary through the more complex subjunctive and preterite-vs-imperfect distinctions in Spanish 3. His structured, patient approach keeps the material from feeling overwhelming.

Studying at the Horace Mann School in New York City meant Ethan took Spanish alongside a rigorous academic curriculum, and his current economics and public policy coursework at UChicago keeps him reading and analyzing across disciplines — skills that transfer directly to parsing Spanish texts and constructing grammatically sound written responses. He's particularly sharp at breaking down the logic behind ser versus estar or preterite versus imperfect, treating tricky distinctions as puzzles with clear rules rather than exceptions to memorize.

Studying both German and Spanish at Carleton while majoring in psychology gives Amanda a multilingual perspective that sharpens how she teaches language — she understands firsthand where English speakers get tripped up by gendered nouns or unfamiliar verb forms because she's wrestling with those same structures across two foreign languages simultaneously. Her conversational Spanish background means sessions stay practical, connecting grammar concepts like ser versus estar to real dialogue instead of isolated worksheets.

Years of living and working in Mexico and the Dominican Republic gave Julie the kind of Spanish fluency that textbooks alone can't provide — she knows the grammar rules and when native speakers bend them. She tackles everything from verb conjugation patterns to reading comprehension, weaving in regional vocabulary and real-world usage that make the language feel less like a school subject and more like a tool.

Having studied Spanish as part of her undergraduate degree, Elena brings both academic grammar knowledge and real conversational fluency to lessons. She digs into tricky areas like subjunctive mood triggers, ser versus estar distinctions, and preterite-imperfect contrasts — the concepts that separate intermediate learners from truly proficient speakers.

Simon teaches Spanish across four levels, from foundational conjugation patterns in the present tense to navigating subjunctive mood and complex reading passages at the advanced level. His approach treats grammar as a logical system — once a student sees why irregular preterite verbs follow certain patterns, retention improves dramatically.
