Hi! I'm Lorena, from Uruguay, and I'm here to help you dive into authentic Rioplatense Spanish
Embedded Files
Like many of you, I understand the challenges of learning a language. I grew up in the 90s, when English wasn't as widespread here as it is now. We learned grammar in school with boring methods, but rarely had the chance to practice fluid conversation. It was tough for me to achieve fluency, which at times limited my job opportunities. I even convinced myself that I wasn't "good with languages."
But then, I had an epiphany: instead of focusing on what I lacked, I realized I could teach what I truly knew and loved – the real, everyday Spanish that people from other countries want to learn and experience.
As a Communication graduate with experience in coaching, I bring much more than just linguistic knowledge to our classes. My background has provided me with the tools to communicate clearly, understand your specific needs, and motivate you to speak with confidence.
I grew up immersed in Rioplatense Spanish, with its unique expressions and its unmistakable particular intonation, a product of the blend of various cultures. For me, teaching this Spanish isn't just about sharing a language; it's about opening a door to integrate fully and an authentic way to connect with local people.
I firmly believe that language shapes how we feel and express ourselves. In this part of the world, we feel deeply, we have a rich history, and a fascinating convergence of cultures. That's what I want to share with you: not just how to speak, but how to understand our 'ironía rioplatense,' our way of being, and all those expressions that will make you feel truly part of it.
My greatest joy is seeing my students understand a local joke, order a coffee like a true Rioplatense, or feel comfortable in a "charla de mate." I want you to feel right at home!
You won't just learn from textbooks. My classes are dynamic, personalized, and hands-on, designed to help you gain the confidence to speak from day one. I have an immense passion for what I offer. I know what it's like to live here, to feel, and to speak "en la esquina" – like talking to the greengrocer without getting a weird look.
This journey, for me, is about an honest exchange. I never do anything without passion and purpose, and I'm sure it will be a wonderful mutual learning experience.
Welcome!🤗
