Casual, judgment-free Spanish classes with a real teacher — built around conversation, games, and zero boring drills. Clases de español casuales y sin pena, con un profesor real — basadas en conversación, juegos y cero aburrimiento.
I've spent the last three-plus years teaching Spanish to English speakers — including a stint teaching at university level in Trinidad and Tobago — and I built my whole method around one thing: getting you talking, fast, without the fear of sounding silly.
Every student is different, so every class is shaped around how you actually learn — your goals, your pace, your interests. No two lesson plans look the same.
Most of my students found me one by one through word of mouth and Facebook groups — no fancy marketing, just real results. That's the kind of teacher I want to be for you too.
Llevo más de tres años enseñando español a angloparlantes — incluyendo un tiempo dando clases a nivel universitario en Trinidad y Tobago — y construí todo mi método alrededor de una sola cosa: hacer que hables rápido, sin miedo a sonar raro.
Cada estudiante es distinto, así que cada clase se adapta a cómo tú realmente aprendes — tus metas, tu ritmo, tus intereses. Ningún plan de clase es igual a otro.
La mayoría de mis estudiantes me encontraron uno por uno, de boca en boca y en grupos de Facebook — sin marketing sofisticado, solo resultados reales. Ese es el tipo de profesor que quiero ser para ti también.
You learn to think in Spanish from lesson one, not translate word by word.Aprendes a pensar en español desde la clase uno, no a traducir palabra por palabra.
Role-plays and casual chats about your life — not stiff textbook dialogues.Juegos de rol y charlas casuales sobre tu vida — no diálogos rígidos de libro.
Quizzes and games at the end of each session so it actually sticks.Quizzes y juegos al final de cada sesión para que se quede grabado.
Lessons shaped around your goals — exams, travel, fluency, or your career.Clases moldeadas a tus metas — exámenes, viajes, fluidez o tu carrera.

"I've been taking classes with Johann for 6 months. I have taught Spanish for 25 years in the US, and I needed to take the Spanish Praxis to renew my teaching license. He tailored my classes to exactly what I needed — my fluency in writing and speaking has soared!"
"I enjoyed being in his classes, it was very interactive and our lessons were well balanced. As an English speaking person, it is sometimes difficult to comfortably speak Spanish, but in his classes you can feel comfortable to speak and practice the language."
"I started Spanish with Johann a month ago. The classes are enjoyable, interesting and easy to understand. I love that at the end of every class he uses games and quizzes to practice what you have learned."
"When I started classes six weeks ago I was very afraid to speak Spanish because I thought I'd make a lot of mistakes and sound silly. However, the classes with Johann made me relax and enjoy learning and speaking Spanish."
