About Leo
Teaching method: Communication-first instruction. Grammar and vocabulary are taught in service of real conversation, not as isolated drills. Lessons incorporate spaced repetition to build long-term retention, and cultural context is woven in throughout, since language and culture aren't separable in practice.
Typical lesson: A session opens with a quick review of previously learned material using spaced repetition, followed by new material introduced through dialogue and real-world scenarios (ordering food, making travel arrangements, workplace conversations, etc., depending on the student's goals). Students practice speaking and listening actively in every session, with targeted correction and a short written recap at the end for self-study between lessons.
What sets this apart: 15 years of teaching experience across the US, Mexico, Italy, and Portugal, including international school settings. Native fluency in both Spanish and English, plus fluency in French, Italian, and Portuguese, allows lessons to draw direct comparisons across languages when useful. A background in legal interpretation also brings precision to technical or professional vocabulary when needed.
Who this is for: Students at any level — beginner through advanced — including retirees preparing for travel, professionals needing language skills for work, and students working toward academic or certification goals. Lessons are tailored individually rather than following a fixed curriculum, so pacing and content adjust to the student's specific needs and schedule.
