About Nicolás
I was born and grew up in Argentina. I lived in Spain four years and studied Spanish at the University of Alicante. That is the reason why I know both varieties of the language well. I have been living in Vienna for 16 years. I completed a degree in Linguistics at the University of Vienna in German (focus: language teaching and learning research). Moreover, I obtained a master’s degree in Spanish as a Foreign Language at a Spanish distance learning university. Since 2017, I have been teaching at the Latin American Institute of Vienna. I’m now working on four books, one about differences in vocabulary among Spanish-speaking countries, one about language didactics, one about communication and one about my travel adventures.

I am a very committed and friendly German and Spanish teacher with 17 years of experience with all age groups. I offer private lessons, tuition and courses - one-to-one or group lessons. During our lessons you will speak a lot, but you will train intensively your reading and writing skills and your listening comprehension as well. I work mainly with a course book, but also with songs, movie scenes, voice messages, short stories, newspaper articles, games, conversation exercises, etc. I try to encourage the learner autonomy by offering tips, recommendations for apps and all sorts of learning materials and by giving homework as well. I enjoy working in a systematic and entertaining way, but am very open to adapt to my student's wishes, interests and needs and to customise the method with them. If the learner is convinced about the method, they are pleased and motivated to continue studying.

I have had regular lessons with Nicolas for 4 years. He is a great teacher and I can highly recommend him.
Great teacher, always has varied material to hand. Highly recommended for all levels.
Nicolas is a great teacher and a great person. I learnt a lot in our classes and always had had very interesting conversations with him. We did classes both online and sometimes in person in Vienna, and he really helped me improve my level of Spanish. I highly recommend!
I took about 6 months of Spanish lessons with Nicolás. We met for an hour every few days and my experience with him was excellent He is a very warm and engaging teacher. He is able to combine the structure needed to learn the fundamentals of a language with a creative teaching style using different formats. Additionally, we had conversations like good friends for months which helped me get very comfortable communicating in Spanish, which I appreciate tremendously. I highly recommend as a tutor :)
I can only recommend Nicolás. He is very nice and kind. Spanish classes with him are fun. He is very patient and it is not a problem for him to explain something several times. I enjoyed learning Spanish with him.
Nicolas has a feeling for languages! He not only has a profound knowledge of his native Spanish, but also of the German language. He explains very clearly, is pleasant to deal with, very patient, open and unconventional.
I've been takinglessons from Nico for three years and can only recommend him. The hours withhim are varied, individual, instructive, funny and there is more. Nico is alinguist who is enthusiastic about languages and who - apart from his nativeSpanish - also has a perfect command of German without an accent. He alsospeaks four other languages fluently, which is often helpful in class. He isalso patient and very flexible when it comes toteaching times. While I wasliving in New York, we took classes online on Skype and it worked great. Notonly is he a good teacher with a lot of experience, but also a verywarm-hearted person.
I can only recommend Nicolás as a teacher. He makes the lessons interesting and can convey the content well. With his sympathetic, cheerful and patient manner, lessons are fun with him.
Nicolás is an extremely competent Spanishteacher and a language genius in general. During the course, he encouraged me to express myself in Spanish as much as possible and always explained everything to me in Spanish. He is also very nice and cool Clear recommendation! Annie
I am currently in my second Spanish course with Nicolás as my teacher. Nicolás is a very nice and patient teacher, a friendly and open person and an enthusiastic linguist, who speaks fluent German (among other languages) and is very contagious with his enthusiasm for language. He has a lot of good tips, tricks and ‘donkey-bridges’ in store, is great at explaining complex grammar rules and learning with him is really fun. I can highly recommend him !!!
After a few years of learning with Nicolás I would like to make a clear recommendation. His profound professional competence shapes his lessons and it just never gets boring because he always has suitable exercises ready. His flexible, open nature makes the lessons informal and you are not afraid to embarrass yourself... thumbs up!
I know Nicolás as a private teacher and can highly recommend him. As a South American who studied in Spain and Austria, he offers Spanish learners a language repertoire that can hardly be surpassed, which he uses very competently as a linguist. His communicative, open and flexible nature also contributes to a successful teaching. If only we, his students, were just as talented as him!
The two years of teaching with Nicolás were exciting! It all started with my desire to just practice conversation and talking, but then Nicolás suggested using other methods to practice listening and speaking with me. That was new to me, entertaining and effective at the same time! With a wide variety of exercises, one playful, one demanding and difficult, he has always made the lessons interesting and productive. But above all, it was fun to explore the language with the various exercise variants. Modern, diverse, never dry and very likable on a personal level, that's how I would like to summarize the time of learning. Spanish is a very beautiful language that I really enjoyed learning with Nicolás!
We have known Nicolás for a long time. He is an experienced and extremely motivated teacher. Our conversation lessons were always very exciting, entertaining and instructive. He lived in Spain and can therefore offer both variants, the European and Latin American. He also speaks perfect German (and I don't know how many other languages). A language teacher who, like Nicolás, is nice, competent and charming - can be recommended without reservation!!
Excelente profesor! Se percibe su enorme vocación por los idiomas y la educación. Además de enseñar muy bien es una persona sumamente especial, amorosa, interesante y tiene un sentido del humor genial. No se me ocurre un mejor profesor de español y alemán.
Excellent teacher! His enormous vocation for languages and education is perceived. In addition to teaching very well, he is a very special person, loving, interesting and has a great sense of humour. I can't think of a better Spanish and German teacher.This is my 3rd time in the course with Nicolas. I find him very empathic. He lets his students "have their say" and treats questions about the material individually. His teaching method is alternative and with his humor he even loosens up grammar exercises! I can 100% recommend him as a language teacher!
I only had private lessons with Nicolas for a short time - but he was very hard working and competent. He addresses the needs of the student instead of giving a lecture. Gracias!
Nico is a very nice and charming teacher. He is very creative and adapts individually to the student and his needs. His teaching is alternating and not necessarily conventional. For example, I had a lot of fun translating songs and newspaper articles and was really looking forward to my homework. He put the focus on the conversation, which helped me a lot personally to be able to quickly use my Spanish skills in everyday life. I can therefore only warmly recommend him.
Nicolás is a fantastic teacher and a fantastic person. He is a linguist and speaks many languages (my admiration!) And gives us a lot of interesting details about the origins of words, relationships between the individual languages, etc. This is not only helpful in understanding, but also an absolute enrichment for my general knowledge. In particular, the exciting newspaper articles that Nicolás had selected for us in the summer conversation course were the absolute broadening of my horizons. I felt like I was growing beyond myself. And I laughed a lot... This is how learning is fun
For 2 years I had private lessons with Nicolàs once a week for 90 minutes. He is a very good teacher who can patiently explain the pitfalls of the Spanish language. Thanks to him, I made great progress quickly. It was never boring, but always very interesting and practical. Since he speaks several languages himself, he can put himself in the other person's shoes very well, which could be difficult when learning a foreign language. In addition, Nicolàs is a very nice, empathetic and funny person. I can only recommend him as a teacher!
I had a very long language course with Nico and can highly recommend him. He is competent, patient, has a great feeling for languages and is always in a good mood.
I CAN ONLY RECOMMEND HIM! I am only repeating the course because I am forgetful with age and he is very patient and charming!
Nicolás is a perfect Spanish teacher. He is empathetic and is very responsive to individual needs. Above all, conversation was important to me, which I only learned to master well through him after several Spanish courses. He can not only convey the language, but also the culture and the South American attitude to life.
Nicolás is a very lovable, nice and above all a patient teacher. The lessons are very creative and varied. He responds to the needs of the students, the exercises are very creative, sometimes demanding, playful and varied! I can recommend him 100% as a language teacher!
4 years ago I was looking for a native speaker for Spanish for my son so that he could enjoy the language and get support for school lessons. I wrote to three teachers over the Internet. Nicolás answered immediately and has been coming to us every week since then. Right from the very first lesson he said I should sit down and since then we have had "three-person lessons". We look forward every week when he comes to us. Nicolás is a wonderful teacher. Since he speaks perfect German and has a better command of German grammar than most "native German speakers", he can explain Spanish grammar perfectly. He can explain Spanish grammar perfectly. His lessons are varied and have never been "bland". He is not only a good teacher, but also interested in politics and society. This always results in very interesting conversations. Above all, however, he is an incredibly open-minded and lovely person. We took him very deeply into our hearts!
I've known Nicolás for 13 years now. I learned a bit of Spanish as an elective at school and through a block course at university, but in the Spanish course at the Ebreichsdorf Adult Education Center and with him as a teacher, I finally had the opportunity to really learn this beautiful language. Nicolás explains the grammar very well and in great detail! He really has a lot of patience! He always explains something to you until you really understand it! I also think it's particularly great that he has repeatedly brought us closer to the different Spanish dialects in the group and also drawn our attention to the different meanings of individual words in the individual Spanish-speaking countries. He doesn't teach just after a book, but teaches you Spanish with very demanding texts, beautiful songs and films, and games. For me he is the perfect Spanishteacher!
I took private lessons with Nico for a good six months and can only warmly recommend him! Before that, I still had some leftover Spanish from my school days and he managed to fill the many missing holes wonderfully. He responded wonderfully to me, created creative challenges and conveyed enthusiasm for the language and learning. He honestly challenged me and did not overwhelm me, so at the end of the semester I was able to take my examination at the Technical University and pass the test with a very good mark.
The perfect care of every single student is a top priority for Nicolas. Since he does a great job and has a very high level of expertise, I can recommend him 100%.
Nicolas is a great teacher ... he is extremely competent and teaches the language with a lot of humor and joy! I was very positively motivated by his flexibility in responding to my wishes and the way I approach Argentine Spanish. If you want to learn Spanish with ease, you have come to the right place with Nicolas. Can only warmly recommend his lessons!!!
Nicolás is an extremely talented and competent teacher who teaches methodically and didactically excellently. He draws attention to mistakes, but does not reveal solutions immediately, but tries to get you to fix the mistake yourself. I can only recommend Nicolas, he is a cosmopolitan, very personable, humorous and empathetic teacher.
I took lessons from Nicolàs for a while a few years ago. I remember him as very empathetic, intelligent and humorous with a very professional and flexible way of working. I can only warmly recommend him.
Nicolàs is a super competent Spanish teacher who has an unbelievably extensive knowledge of languages, grammar and their use and also has a story about their origin for each word so that you can remember a lot very easily and understand it better. I started learning Spanish with him from scratch and he helped me through the difficult initial phase with an extraordinary amount of patience. I can absolutely recommend Nico!!
If you are looking for a good Spanish teacher, I can only recommend Nicolás to you. The lessons are very varied and playful learning is definitely not neglected. I really enjoyed every class and learned a lot about the Spanish-speaking world. You can tell that he has years of experience in teaching. He not only knows the language very well, but above all how to convey it patiently and with humor. It sparked so much enthusiasm for the language in me that afterwards I started studying Spanish myself.
I took part in a Spanish course by Nicolás and can only report positive things. Nicolás is a very committed teacher who responds to the wishes and needs of his students and structures his lessons in a meaningful way. With Nicolás, language lessons will never be boring and the motivation to learn independently comes from the inexhaustible source of his enthusiasm for teaching the Spanish language. I particularly vividly remember the conversations in the course, which thanks to Nicolás’ encouragement and good moderation, always went beyond the usual language course blabla - and that despite our terrible level. One could also suspect self-interest, all the better when everyone has benefited. Since I can not imagine anyone who could not be enthusiastic about Nicolás, I recommend him with a light heart for private lessons, although unfortunately I have not (yet) enjoyed it myself. Competent, reliable, funny, interested, interesting, what more could you ask for?
Nicolás is an excellent teacher who is very responsive to his students. He conveys both grammatical knowledge and a lively connection to the Spanish language. This way, learning is easy and fun. I am happy to recommend him to others and will continue to learn with him if necessary.

To sum up : Nicolás is a very recommendable and warm professor. Therefore: "If you want to learn with joy and fun, you are right with Nicolás!"I can only recommend Nicolás. Thanks to him, I have successfully completed five years of Spanish at school. He is very competent and flexible and can help in any situation, be it a school assignment, a test or preparation for the Matura. If I want to learn Spanish again in the future, I will surely ask Nicolás for help.
Nicolás is arguably the best language teacher I have ever had. He is friendly, respectful, motivating, and innovative in his teaching methods. His German is flawless and it's great and motivating to learn with a native speaker. With him it was always fun to learn Spanish!!
With Nicolás as a language trainer, it never gets boring. He makes the lessons incredibly diverse: from conversation to group exercises to poems and songs (and even culinary highlights). So you not only learn the language, but also get an insight into the culture and local characteristics of various Spanish-speaking countries. His linguistic knowledge, his humor and his communicative nature contribute to the exciting, creative and fun learning experience.
After a short basic course at an institute, I took individual lessons with Nicolas. That was the best decision for me because I wanted a teacher who would deal directly with me and my pace, as I am often faster than groups. I really had a stroke of luck with Nicolas: he adjusted wonderfully to my pace, gave me very challenging tasks and explained my grammar questions to me down to the smallest detail. He never gave up when I wanted to say something in German because I couldn't do it in Spanish. Last but not least, before I went abroad to Colombia, he put me in touch with a good friend of his there, which was really great because I was in direct contact wherever I was - and had to speak Spanish.
The classes with Nicolás were very useful for my German. The way he explains with practical examples was very helpful. Since we have the same first language, it helped me a lot to understand what mistakes I was making because I think in Spanish.
Nicolás is a great Spanish teacher and a real talent for languages, and an incredibly nice guy in general. It was important to me to learn "Argentine Spanish" (as I wanted to prepare for a stay in Argentina) and so I chose him because he teaches both "Spanish" and "Argentine" Spanish. The lessons helped me a lot, I learned a lot in a very short time and this made my start on my Argentina adventure a lot easier. He always made the Spanish lessons very fun and varied. I can only recommend him!!!! Muchas gracias, Nicolás! :)
Nicolás is an extremely friendly, motivated and competent Spanish teacher. He is empathetic, always in a good mood and, above all, very patient. He knows how to teach you the Spanish language (almost) in a playful way with wit and humor. I've made good progress in the three years I've been on his course and I've always had a lot of fun. I can highly recommend Nicolás to everyone!
¡Hola! Nicolas is a great teacher, always patient and in a good mood! Anyone who deals with Spanish a little outside of the lessons (and does the homework, for example) will bring amazing things further in a relatively short time. I was able to talk to the locals quite well on our South America vacation ! Top recommendation!!!
Actually, I can hardly imagine a better one-on-one lessonsolution than with Nico!! A native speaker of his wonderful language and hespeaks German almost as perfectly as well. He is very nice, helpful and adapthis lessons to your wishes, and he really tries to be as flexible as possibleif you can't come to the agreed date. ABSOLUTE RECOMMENDATION!!
As a Spanish teacher, I can only highly recommend Nicolás. Because of his pleasant, patient and very motivating nature, learning is a lot of fun!!
Nico is an excellent Spanish teacher. In his creative and fun lessons, learning is easy and the language comes alive immediately. His lovable consistency helps you to stick with it, so you can make rapid progress.
Nicolás is an excellent language teacher and I can warmly recommend him. I took private lessons with Nicolás because I was doing a semester abroad in Chile. He responded individually to my needs and always had the right material with me. His lessons were always very varied and interesting. With his patient and happy manner, he brings you closer to the subject and fun is not neglected either. Nicolás is really a wonderful language teacher with a big heart.
I can fully recommend him as a Spanish teacher. He is always well prepared. A very patient teacher who never makes you feel too "slow". A varied lesson. Individual lessons are very productive with him. It is also very positive that he speaks the German language very well, which makes it easier to understand him. You can also postpone appointments at very short notice, as he is very understanding. It's really a lot of fun! Thank you, Nicolas!
Nicolás is a very committed and good tutor! He helped my son a lot and is uncomplicated and open to all options (home visit, online, etc.). Thank you Nicolás!
For our schools we need more teachers who are as competent as Nicolas. He is an authentic, patient and very nice teacher who also speaks perfect German. He chats with you in his mother tongue about everything and you don't even notice that you are in the middle of learning Spanish. Nicolas adapts the pace and subject matter to his students. During the class, he describes words in Spanish that need to be guessed. The lessons with him make learning fun and no questions remain unanswered. I recommend it to all age groups!
We can also warmly recommend Nicolás! He has a very patient, flexible, empathetic and cheerful nature and knows how to motivate us again and again with his charming character. Nicolás designs the lessons very diversely and caters to our individual needs. He does not strictly adhere to the guidelines of the books, but instead brings us closer to South American culture with songs and texts from his homeland. Thank you for the additional information on recommended literature, films and apps to bring us closer to the Spanish language. Muchas gracias por todo.
I can highly recommend Nicolás. I've been studying with him for almost 2 months now and I can say that he has helped me improve my Spanish a lot. He also explains well and always thinks about which exercises are best for the day before each lesson.
I know Nikolas from a group Spanish course and can only warmly recommend him! As an Argentinian with a long stay in Spain, he is the best native speaker. In addition, he can tell a lot about cultural backgrounds. Nicolas is very committed, competent, humorous, interested in fellow human beings, empathetic and open-minded. He is very good at explaining even the most difficult content and is very patient. At the same time, with his happy nature, he brings a certain ease into the lessons, so that it is really fun to learn Spanish with him. He is always perfectly prepared and very creative. Has a wide range of teaching methods through which you don't even realize what you've already learned. Nicolas is the best language teacher ever!!!
I can only recommend Nicolás. He is very nice and patient when you don't understand something. The lessons with him are also exciting and he has immense knowledge that he likes to share, which helps one understand the Spanish language better and makes the lessons interesting and exciting. The lessons with him really bring out something. My Spanish has improved a lot and I am now able to successfully complete Spanish at school.
My daughter has been learning Spanish with Nicolas for a few months. He is very reliable and has a good feeling about what is required in terms of demand and support. His passion for language shows in his broad knowledge and the ability to pass this knowledge on, adapted to the needs and level of knowledge of the learner. My daughter has finally gained access to the Spanish language through him, and learning with him is clearly a joy and success. Thank you Nicolas!
We can recommend Nicolás as an excellent, reliable, friendly and very good Spanish teacher. Nicolás responded immediately to our request within a very short time and an appointment was made very quickly. Nicolás was on time, which is very important for us and he was able to explain the material to my daughter very well and to awaken the joy of the language again.
Through his enthusiasm, Nicolás not only brings you closer to the language, but also the energetic feeling and the way of life that defines language. An authentic and personable teacher.
Nicolás is an excellent Spanish teacher! I had no previous knowledge and am always amazed at how much I was able to learn with him in a short time. He makes the lessons varied, funny and entertaining. In doing so, he responds to individual needs and can easily identify where support and help are needed. What I particularly like is the mix, how the lessons are designed - texts, books and (especially important) conversations. You don't even notice that you're already in the middle of studying. I can really recommend Nicolás to everyone with a clear conscience! His diverse knowledge, his patience and the joy with which he teaches the Spanish language are just fun! We need more teachers like him! ¡Gracias, Nicolás!
Nicolás is a very good tutor. He adapts to your level of learning very quickly and makes the lessons interesting. His affable nature makes it easy, especially for younger students, to enjoy tutoring.
Nicolas is an excellent tutor! He is very patient and can explain very well. The hours with him are very varied and my Spanish has clearly improved. I also have better grades in Spanish at school now. In addition, you not only learn Spanish from textbooks, but also everyday Spanish and get a good feel for the language.
Fun, inspiring and very effective. Simply great.
Nicolás is flexible in terms of time and thanks to his help I was able to prepare for the class test in Spanish, which I finally passed with a very good mark.
I had a Spanish oral exam and Nicolás helped me speak Spanish fluently. With his motivating nature, I found the language to be a lot of fun and got a very good mark on the exam. So it was worth it :) I can recommend Nicolás to everyone who likes entertaining and varied lessons and wants to improve their Spanish quickly.
We can really warmly recommend Nicolás, my two sons have improved a lot in Spanish. If you are looking for a competent, reliable and charming tutor, you have come to the right place with Nicolás!
I would very much like to recommend Nicolas !! He is very good at explaining and helps a lot as a tutor
