Meet some of our Frankfurt teachers 🧑🏫
I was born in the longest country in the world: Chile. I moved to Germany almost three years ago because my husband had a new job and we were looking for new opportunities for our sons Gian (15) and Oliver (11). Besides my native Spanish, I was lucky enough to learn German at a German school in Chile, so I can say that I am bilingual, Spanish - German. For me, the best way to learn a language is through immersion: living it, reading it, and speaking it. Perfection is not the goal; communication is. This philosophy guides my teaching. For example, when we were learning how to ask for something in a store, I took my students to a German Bäckerei so they could practice in real-life situations. Plus, we enjoyed some delicious German treats.

I always work with my students as a team. All syllabi are planned and executed according to my students` needs.
