Spanish New York.com
Since 1996, I have provided professional Spanish language instruction to people who enjoy Hispanic culture and want to learn Spanish in Manhattan.
I am a native Spanish speaker, fluent in both Spanish and English. Raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina, by parents from Spain, I have traveled extensively throughout Spain and Latin America. I have both Spanish and American citizenship. I originally came to the United States after being awarded a Fulbright Scholarship.
My education includes a Master's Degree in Education from the Prilidiano Pueyrredon National University in Buenos Aires, Argentina; a Bachelor's Degree in Spanish Language from SUNY Albany, another Master's Degree in Spanish Education from Queens College; and New York State Permanent Teaching Certification in Spanish. I have also trained in the Rassias Method at Fordham University and am a Certified Translator from NYU.
I have more than 30 years of experience teaching Spanish. My experience includes teaching at NYU and at many Spanish language schools. If you are interested, please look over my testimonials and education and experience as a Spanish language teacher and tutor in New York City and abroad.
I come from a family of teachers. Both my mother and father were teachers. My wife was born in New York, and she is also a Spanish teacher. She has been teaching since 1994. We have been living in New York City since 1996, and we are the parents of a beautiful daughter who is completely bilingual.
