I offer conversational Spanish for adults, grammar support, reading and writing practice, and English-Spanish/ Spanish-English translations, with a focus on real life communication for work, travel, and daily conversation. My background includes working as a Spanish writing professor in Colombia, a Spanish Teaching Assistant at the University of Florida ( Spanish 1 & 2), and K-12 teaching experience in Bogota-Colombia. My teaching style is patient, practical, and confidence building. I enjoy EDM music, yoga, meditation, hiking, and dancing.

Maria was truly so caring and genuine. She had so much patience and really adapted to my learning style. I highly recommend her. She really help by providing constructive feedback. She was so detailed and intentional with her material. I never felt uncomfortable with practicing my Spanish and it allowed me to absorb the teachings, and I really appreciate the time that she dedicated to making sure that I pushed myself until I felt comfortable and confident. Thank you Maria!!
