We start by talking
Real conversation to warm up. That way I see your level without a cold test.
¡Hola! I'm Jenny
Spanish teacher,
storyteller
I've been teaching Spanish for more than 4 years: speaking first, theory after, and always with real-life Spanish at the heart of it.
“You learn Spanish by speaking, with patience, coffee and lots of stories.”

Who I am
From going blank to teaching people to speak
I learned languages by making mistake after mistake, so I know what it feels like to freeze up, translate in your head or sound way too formal. That's why I teach differently: speaking first, theory after. I want you to enjoy the journey, not suffer through it.
How it started
I stopped teaching only what's correct
I started with grammar and vocabulary. My students got better… but many of them still didn't sound natural. So I started listening to cafés, friends and WhatsApp. That's when I understood I had to teach what people really say, not just what's correct.
What I saw
There was a gap between the textbook and the café
I heard it again and again. The problem was almost never a lack of grammar. It was the bridge between textbook Spanish and everyday Spanish. That's where my method comes from.
- Understanding TV shows but freezing up when speaking
- Sounding too formal with friends
- Building every sentence word by word
- Always saying the same things: muy bueno, interesante, estoy cansado
I understand your videos perfectly. But when I talk to native speakers, it feels like they're speaking another language.
My method
From correct Spanish to natural Spanish
I work in layers. Grammar matters, but it's not the end of the road. The goal is to get down to what's natural: cafés, WhatsApp, TV shows, real conversation.
-
Grammar
Rules and tenses. Necessary, but not enough.
-
Vocabulary
Lists and single words. Useful, if you actually use them.
-
Conversation
You can already speak… but sometimes you sound like a textbook.
-
Natural Spanish
How people really talk. Rhythm, expressions, real life.
My students didn't need more rules. They needed to hear and practice what's below that line.
In class
How I teach
1:1 video classes. The pace and content come from you, not from a fixed syllabus.
02
We follow a goal
On any given day it might be work, travel, confidence or fluency. I prepare material just for you.
03
A few phrases that stick
Less quantity, more use. Something concrete to keep practicing between classes.
Examples
From textbook to café
Same idea. The version you actually hear on the street.
Textbook
Estoy muy cansado
Café
Estoy agotado
Textbook
Muy bueno
Café
Está genial
Textbook
No entiendo
Café
No te sigo
Textbook
No hay problema
Café
No pasa nada
If a sentence could show up on an exam, we look for the café version.
What I believe in
Real Spanish, not textbook Spanish
There's a bridge between correct and natural. That's where I teach: what people say in a café, not just on an exam.
Speak to learn
Your ears and your mouth learn together. We use the language from day one, with a few phrases that really stick.
No fear of mistakes
Mistakes aren't failures: they're part of the journey. Calm, friendly classes, like talking with a friend.
A little of my everyday life
Coffee, classes, stories and the Spanish you live outside the textbook.
Jenny doesn't teach Spanish like a school subject. She teaches it as something you really want to live.
If you want to keep going
On YouTube you'll find stories and real Spanish. In classes, the same approach, 1:1.
