I am a Spanish native speaker from Chile. I use videos, photos, and even cartoons to make sure every class is not simply a language class, but rather a complete culture class, offering a view into the literature, history and the everyday life of Spanish America and Spain.
- Which subject(s) do you teach?
Spanish Language and Spanish American Literature.
- Tell me about your qualifications.
I have a Graduate Certificate in Spanish Language Teaching to Adults (GCSLTA) from The University of Roehampton of London and Instituto Cervantes of Spain. I also hold a PHD degree in Spanish American Literature and BAs in Journalism and Sociology.
For 20 years I have been a consultant for the United Nations in countries such as Paraguay, Bolivia, Ecuador and Chile and as a journalist I have worked for several media in Latin America and Spain. I am familiar with most of the communication forms or speeches used in the different regions of Spain and Spanish America
Several of my books have been published and can be found at (concealed information)
- How much do you charge?
My fee is £35 an hour. For group lessons, I charge £30 for the first person, £20 for additional persons. Group lessons cannot have more than 5 students.
- Where do you teach?
I teach through the Zoom App.
- When are you available?
Every day, any time.
- Which ages and levels do you teach?
I have taught all ages and standards. I am happy to teach Spanish to any level.
- Describe your arrangements for online tutoring.
Classes via Zoom permit better lessons. I use many interactive tools, show films and videos, things that are not possible to do in face to face lessons because everyone would have to take a laptop or a tablet to the course. Students value this a lot.
- Do you have a personal message for students?
I believe tutoring must be adapted to what each specific person requires. Someone who is going on a trip and wants to learn a few basic things to get by has very different needs to those of a high-level professional who plans to work in a Spanish-speaking country, in which case the learner needs to develop Spanish language skills in a variety of areas, from professional requirements, to day-to-day life, administrative tasks, and others.
Once familiar with the needs of the learner, together we can make a bespoke plan to satisfy your requirements.
The subject matters covered during my lessons depend essentially on your goals. Lessons will be fully focussed on your needs and on your desired objectives. I am happy to teach the Spanish language at any level, age group or level of proficiency.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by the students of Sergio.
Perfect! Sergio brings really diverse subjects and materials to his lessons. His literary background means the content of his lessons is always rich in culture and history. He introduced me to so many wonderful authors, facts and bits of history! He is a very calm and patient teacher. I really enjoy his classes....!
- Sergio's response :Rebeca has been a very capable student, with a special intuition for languages. She already speaks Spanish with great precision. We were able to study and practice a Spanish related to her interest: Mexico and Latin America, including its culture and literature.
Perfect! Sergio is quite simply an excellent teacher. His lessons are always interesting, well planned and focussed on my particular needs. He is a friendly and entertaining teacher but also rigorous in ensuring that I make progress with my Spanish. I have been receiving lessons on a weekly basis for over four months now and can say that Sergio has markedly improved my level in all aspects of Spanish: speaking, reading, writing and listening. Highly recommended!

Sergio has been my Spanish tutor for some years. He has been instrumental in helping me improve my B1/B2 level. He offers interesting and diverse lessons, comprehensively and patiently covering reading, speaking, and writing. Every lesson is different and keeps my attention. I have felt my fluency improve. I would highly recommend Sergio.
Sergio is a very good tutor, who speaks slowly and clearly and also has a very broad knowledge of Hispanic literature.
I feel very lucky indeed to have found Sergio as my Spanish teacher! He completely understood what I was wanting (viz to be able to understand and converse in Spanish ). As a true “educator", he has been "leading me out" into my discovery of the language, mindful of where I am and yet, all the while, extending my ability and challenging me to improve. He is clearly a very skilled teacher with whom it is easy and enjoyable to engage. Above all, Sergio is a very warm and kind person who shows great respect and understanding and who is able to find an enriching shared wavelength so the learning, for me, has been a great pleasure. I could not recommend him more highly to anyone wanting to learn or improve their Spanish at all levels.
He is a dedicated, well-prepared, interesting teacher who enjoys teaching and fosters students' self-confidence. You will take pleasure in his sessions, learning the Spanish language in many imaginative ways, through videos, photos, poems and even cartoons or comics. You will reach the end of each class feeling that you've learnt much more than just a language! He'll give you insights into the culture, literature, history and everyday life in Spanish America and Spain. Sergio makes every class funny and lively.
I have been working with Sergio for the last few months, and have found his Spanish lessons to be most useful. His lessons have always included elements of Spanish and Latin American history and culture, as well as colloquial language and phrases from different dialects.
