Mercedes Santana Durand

I am a native Spanish speaker offering private Spanish tutoring with a strong focus on individuality and personalized learning. I believe that no two students learn in the same way, which is why my teaching approach is fully adaptable to each learner’s needs, goals, and context.

My lessons are tailored to suit different learning styles, levels, and paces, whether the student is learning Spanish for academic purposes, professional communication, travel, or personal interest. I place particular importance on creating a supportive and inclusive learning environment, especially for students with special educational needs, anxiety, or confidence barriers. Patience, clarity, and flexibility are at the core of my teaching.

I adapt my methods depending on the student’s strengths, using conversation, visual materials, structured grammar, or practical real life scenarios as needed. My goal is not only to teach the language, but to help students feel comfortable, confident, and motivated when using Spanish in real contexts.

By focusing on adaptability, empathy, and clear communication, I aim to make Spanish accessible, engaging, and meaningful for every learner.
