I'M DANIEL

Since I was a child I have been interested in the world of words, fascinated by how we are able to verbalize our emotions, ideas, opinions, advice. This fascination manifested itself as a passion for my native tongue of Spanish and linguistics in general. When I finished high school in my small town in the province of Corrientes, Argentina I moved to Buenos Aires to study journalism.

After working in this field for several years, my love for travel became so strong that it would take up the second part of my life. Over the next 10 years I traveled to over forty countries, teaching Spanish to supplement my travels, and through this realized that I loved teaching my native language. I decided to return to Argentina and study for an additional degree in second language acquisition and education (another four year degree!), and since 2007 I have worked exclusively teaching Spanish to foreigners from all over the world.​

​

During my travels I needed to communicate with people who did not speak my native tongue and so I embarked on the much travelled, and not often completed, journey of learning a second language, in my case English. In moments of frustration I found myself thinking "this is not for me, I am not good at learning a different language". However, these negative thoughts ended up being inaccurate for me, and they are for you too. Such moments are frequent when trying to learn a different language, especially at the beginning of the process, but it is important to remember that we can all do it, and we can have fun in the process too!

 

I have invested a significant amount of time thinking of the fastest, most effective, and lasting ways to help people learn Spanish. Over the years I have developed teaching techniques & material to support my students on their language learning journey. I understand the process because I lived it too! I know that you can achieve your language learning goals and it will be a pleasure for me to help, guide and support you on this exciting new adventure.
