— Yris B. | Certified Spanish Tutor | Online Only
I started teaching Spanish over 15 years ago, drawing on a strong academic background that includes a Master's degree in Spanish Linguistics and an ELE certification (Español como Lengua Extranjera). My journey began with a passion for the Spanish language and a desire to share it with others. Over the years, I have worked with students of all ages and levels, helping them improve their language skills through personalized instruction. The combination of academic training and practical experience has enabled me to build a flexible teaching style that caters to the unique needs of each learner.
I have a Master's degree in Spanish Linguistics, which has given me a deep understanding of the structure and nuances of the Spanish language. Additionally, I hold the ELE certification (Español como Lengua Extranjera), which qualifies me to teach Spanish as a foreign language. With over 15 years of experience teaching Spanish to students of all levels—from beginners to advanced—I’ve developed a flexible and effective teaching approach that adapts to each student’s needs and goals. I’m passionate about helping students achieve fluency and confidence in Spanish!

Personalized Learning Plan: After the trial, I create a customized learning plan based on your needs—whether you want to improve your speaking, writing, or grammar, or focus on specific topics like travel, business, or conversational Spanish. Interactive Lessons: Each lesson is interactive and designed to keep you engaged. I incorporate real-life scenarios, exercises, and conversational practice to help you use Spanish confidently. Progress Tracking: I track your progress regularly to make sure we’re hitting your goals, adjusting lessons as needed to keep you moving forward. Flexibility: Lessons are tailored to fit your schedule, and we can go at your pace—whether you want to learn intensively or take it slow. I’m here to make learning Spanish enjoyable and effective! 😊
Throughout my career, I have worked with a wide variety of students, each with unique needs and goals. Some of the types of students I have taught include: Young Learners (Kindergarten to 5th Grade): I create engaging and fun lessons to help kids build a strong foundation in Spanish through games, stories, and interactive activities. High School Students: Many of these students are preparing for exams, improving their grades, or working on specific areas like grammar and conversation skills. College and Adult Learners: These students often seek to improve their Spanish for academic purposes, career advancement, or personal growth. I tailor lessons to their specific needs, from conversation practice to advanced grammar. Professionals: I've worked with business professionals who need Spanish for their careers, focusing on industry-specific vocabulary and conversational skills. Heritage Speakers: Students who grew up speaking some Spanish but need formal training to refine their language skills for academic or professional contexts. With such a broad range of students, I adapt my teaching style to suit each group, ensuring they receive the personalized support they need to succeed in their Spanish language journey.
If you're looking to hire a Spanish tutor, here are a few key pieces of advice to ensure you find the right fit for your learning goals: Check Qualifications and Experience: Make sure the tutor has the proper academic background and experience. Look for certifications like the ELE (Español como Lengua Extranjera) and relevant degrees. A tutor with significant teaching experience, like 15+ years, will have developed effective methods for different types of learners. Ask About Teaching Style: Every student learns differently, so ask the tutor about their teaching approach. A good tutor will offer personalized lessons that adapt to your specific needs, whether it's for school, work, or personal interest. Look for a tutor who is flexible and creative in how they teach. Trial Lessons: If possible, request a trial lesson to see if the tutor's style aligns with your learning preferences. This also gives you a sense of how comfortable you feel with them and how effectively they communicate. Cultural Understanding: A great language tutor should also integrate cultural context into lessons, especially when teaching a language like Spanish, which varies greatly by region. Track Record of Success: Seek testimonials or reviews from other students to gauge how successful the tutor has been in helping students achieve their goals. If the tutor has experience with a broad range of learners—children, adults, professionals, and heritage speakers—that's a good sign they can handle various learning styles. In short, look for a well-rounded tutor who not only understands the language but also knows how to teach it in a way that fits your personal learning needs.
One recent event I'm particularly fond of was a session I had with a young student who had struggled with Spanish grammar, especially the preterite tense for both regular and irregular verbs. After weeks of working together and using interactive exercises tailored to her learning style, she suddenly had a breakthrough. It was a proud moment when she was able to confidently conjugate difficult irregular verbs and use them correctly in sentences. Seeing the joy and confidence she gained from that success reminded me why I love teaching. Moments like these, where a student overcomes a challenge and builds a solid foundation, are always memorable for me.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Before talking to teachers about their needs, students should consider: Challenges: What specific topics or skills are difficult? Goals: What do I want to achieve in the course? Strategies: What methods have I tried already? Learning Style: How do I learn best? Support Needed: What help do I need from the teacher? Progress Feelings: How do I feel about my current progress? Communication Preference: How do I prefer to communicate? Commitment: What steps am I willing to take to improve? Questions: What specific questions do I have? Progress Measurement: How will I track my improvement? Reflecting on these points can lead to a more productive conversation with teachers.

Perfect! My high school daughter needed a summer refresher for her Spanish class, and we were fortunate to find Yris. She was very attentive to my daughter’s needs and tailored her lessons to focus on exactly what she needed. I highly recommend her!
- Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that Leah benefited from the Spanish lessons. It was a pleasure working with her, and I’m glad I could tailor the sessions to focus on her specific needs. If she ever needs more help in the future, don’t hesitate to reach out. Thanks again for the recommendation!Yris's response :
