« Coleby is a trustworthy teacher because he has proven to be accomplished and qualified in all aspects of the language. He is goal oriented and really wants to see progress in his students. This isn’t your basic Rosetta Stone where you’ll give up in a week because you didn’t learn anything. He is a great guy and teacher. It was a privilege to have him instruct me and help cement my understanding of Spanish. »

Fluent Spanish speaker based in SLC with multiple years of experience abroad

Methodology

My teaching method is based on the tried and true language learning strategies that I used in order to become fluent. This consists of:

-Actually speaking the language to gain confidence and pronunciation mastery
-Reviewing key vocab words in topics that interest you most in order to start communicating faster
-Studying the history and culture of Spain and Latin America to immerse yourself in the language

Background

I am fluent in Spanish and extremely enthusiastic about the language and the culture behind it!

I have degrees in Spanish and Latin American studies. I graduated with a 4.0 GPA and internship experience at a major consulting firm in Mexico City. I also lived in Panama for two years as a service missionary for the church I attend.

Coleby is a remarkable teacher and an impressive Spanish speaker. He knows how to differentiate between accents and understands the cultural contexts of the many Spanish speaking countries.
