Grissette Palacios

¡Hola! I'm Grissette, a bilingual Spanish tutor with a Bachelor's degree in Communications from Universidad José Simeón Cañas (UCA) and a passion for language, culture, and helping others grow. With a strong professional background in training, team leadership, and interpersonal development, I offer dynamic, student-centered Spanish lessons designed for both teens and adults at any level—from complete beginners to advanced speakers.

I’ve worked in various professional roles that have refined my ability to communicate effectively, coach others, and lead with empathy. As a Workforce Management Team Leader at Telus International, I’ve guided teams, delivered trainings, and adapted communication strategies to suit different learning styles and personalities. These experiences directly inform how I tutor—making sure each lesson is engaging, structured, and tailored to your individual needs.

My Spanish lessons go beyond textbook learning. I focus on practical communication skills, helping you build confidence in real-world conversations. You’ll learn vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation through interactive activities, role-plays, storytelling, and guided discussions. I also incorporate authentic materials like songs, short videos, news articles, and cultural content so you can connect with the language in a meaningful and enjoyable way.

Each class is customized based on your goals—whether it’s passing an exam, preparing for travel, improving job-related language skills, or simply becoming fluent for personal enrichment. With my background in emotional intelligence and interpersonal relations, I make sure you feel supported, encouraged, and motivated at every step of the learning process.

For teens, I create a fun and supportive environment that encourages participation and builds a solid foundation in reading, writing, and speaking. I understand that young learners need structure mixed with creativity, so I incorporate games, visual aids, and relatable content to keep them engaged and progressing.

For adult learners, I offer practical and flexible lessons that respect your time and learning preferences. Whether you’re a working professional, a student, or a lifelong learner, I adjust the pace and focus to meet your objectives—be it business Spanish, conversational fluency, or grammar mastery.

What sets me apart is my ability to adapt lessons to your interests and real-life needs. I bring patience, clarity, and a warm, encouraging teaching style. As someone who has worked in multicultural teams, I deeply value the experience of learning a new language as a bridge to understanding others and expanding one’s horizons.

Technology-wise, I’m proficient with MS Office, Google Apps, and digital tools that enhance virtual learning experiences. Whether you prefer Zoom, Google Meet, or another platform, I ensure classes are well-organized, visually engaging, and interactive.

Learning Spanish with me isn’t just about memorizing verbs—it’s about building a real-world skill that opens doors. I invite you to join me in a learning journey where language comes alive through conversation, culture, and connection.

Let’s work together to reach your Spanish goals at your pace—with structure, support, and a lot of motivation. ¡Hablemos español juntos!
