Hi, I’m Aurora.
I teach Spanish — because I know what it’s like not to speak it.
I’m a Spanish teacher helping complete beginners go from zero to speaking real, everyday Spanish with confidence.
But before I tell you about how I teach, I want to tell you something more important: I know exactly what you’re going through right now. Because I’ve been there myself. More than once.
My story with languages
A few years ago I moved to London to study — and what was supposed to be a short experience turned into five years of my life.
While I was finishing my studies, I worked all sorts of jobs, and almost without noticing, I learned English by living it every day.
It wasn’t a perfect process, or a fast one. It was real. There were moments of confusion, embarrassing mistakes, situations where I wanted to disappear… but also small breakthroughs that, little by little, changed everything.
“That feeling — of trying to say something and not finding the words — is something I’ve never forgotten. And it’s why I teach the way I do.”
How I started teaching Spanish
When I finished my studies, I started working as a teacher in language schools and primary schools in London.
And it was there that I discovered something I hadn’t expected: teaching languages wasn’t just a job for me.
I genuinely loved it. Especially that moment — the one where a student suddenly realises they’ve just understood something new, or said their first proper sentence in another language. That look on their face. I never got tired of it.
Starting over from zero — again
Then came COVID and Brexit, and I decided to start a new adventure: I moved to Milan.
I arrived in 2020, with all the schools closed, so I had no choice but to start teaching online. At first it felt strange — even a little unsettling, because I’d never taught from behind a screen before.
But little by little I discovered something that changed how I work: online I could create more dynamic, more visual, far more personalised classes.
And while I was living in Milan, something important happened to me again. I learned Italian from scratch.
I felt the frustration all over again. The mental blocks when trying to speak. The feeling of not finding the words. But also — the joy of slowly starting to understand. Of having a real conversation for the first time.
“Being a language teacher who has to learn a language from zero again is one of the best things that can happen to you. It reminds you of everything.”
Why I teach Spanish the way I do
All of those experiences changed how I teach.
Because now I know very well what it feels like to start a language from zero. The fear of speaking, the frustration of not progressing fast enough, the moments when you wonder if you’ll ever get there.
That’s why my classes are designed for beginners who want to learn Spanish calmly, practically, and without pressure.
We start with what’s useful — real, everyday Spanish. And we move forward step by step, so you feel more confident each time you speak.
“Learning a language isn’t about doing it perfectly. It’s about daring to use it.”
A few things about me
Beyond the classes, here are a few small things that are also part of my everyday life.
I’m Spanish, born in Córdoba and now living in Granada — a beautiful city in the south of Spain.
I lived 9 years abroad — in London and Milan — where I kept learning new languages and cultures.
I love dancing and I take dance classes, where — funnily enough — I’m also a beginner. So I never forget what it feels like to learn something new from scratch.
And if there’s one thing that can’t be missing from my day… it’s a good café con leche.
I believe learning a language can change a lot of things.
The way you travel. The people you meet. The confidence you feel when you can actually communicate.
But it all starts the same way: taking the first step.
Shall we take
that first step together?
