About Me

Hello Students, my name is Adan. I am a CERTIFIED Spanish Instructor from Mexico with more than 9 Years of experience. I would love the have the opportunity to help you learn Spanish fast.
I have a bachelor's degree in Spanish literature and linguistics, from the University of Guanajuato in Mexico, I have been teaching since 2007, first as a high-school teacher in my country, then when I moved to the States in 2012 I started working in one of the most recognized language schools in the Chicago area.
I have a Cortez Method certificate for Spanish Instructors and I am constantly seeking to improve my teaching techniques,Me as a Teacher
I started working as a high school teacher in México in 2007 and I have been teaching Spanish as a second language since 2012.
I have a long teaching experience and I love my profession. My lessons & teaching style
For the basics I use a special book series by levels, which in my experience is one of the most effective Spanish courses for beginners. I use these books to explain the general concepts of Spanish Grammar only, in order to equip my students with solid foundations.
Once my students feel fully confident with the structures we can start with the immersion consisting of a three step program. 1. Reading, 2. Short media content and 3. complex media resources.My teaching material
