"I became a teacher because one day I realised: explaining complicated things simply and seeing someone's eyes light up with understanding is the real magic."
Before taking lessons with Jose, I didn't know where to start with Spanish. Everything was intimidating - grammar, conjugations, pronunciation. But he presented everything so calmly, as if it were just logic - and I was suddenly interested.
Sometimes I'm slow with my answers and the other teachers start interrupting. But Jose waits. He looks calmly, gives me time to think. Such respect is rare. And it's in these pauses that I learn to speak
Jose and I managed to build a rapport from the very first lesson. He explains without boring, listens, corrects very gently. I started to speak. Talking!
Every lesson is like a mini-voyage. We learn how to drink coffee in Spain, then we discuss Mexican slang. José is not just a language, it's life in Spanish.
He is one of those teachers who really love what he does. You can feel it. Attention to detail, subtle presentation, humour. Even if you're in a bad mood, you'll still leave the lesson with a smile.
Classes without pressure. I make a mistake - and it's no big deal. He just nods, saying, 'OK, let's go on'. This approach personally helps me more than a hundred rules
I am an adult, learning a language from scratch. Not a student, not a child. And Jose found the approach - without infantilism, but also without academic dryness. Very valuable.
At first I just wanted to take a couple of lessons before travelling. But then I got involved. He is really interesting, he has a good sense of humour. I've been studying for four months now - I haven't given up, because it's fun.
The coolest thing is that he doesn't put himself above. He communicates on an equal footing, and the lessons go like a conversation. Only you don't notice how you've learnt 20 new words and understood the structure of the past tense.
I'm an introvert and I was afraid I would be silent. But with Jose, somehow it worked immediately - calmly, without tension. He asks questions, nudges gently. I started to speak. Really talk.
No unnecessary 20-page PDFs with water. He has clear examples, simple phrases, repetition through conversation. All to the point.
My favourite part of the lesson is when he tells cultural tidbits: how Spaniards say hello, what gestures mean, what not to say. It's very lively.
I used to think Spanish was just for travelling. Now, thanks to Jose, I want to read books in the original. He's sparked an interest, and that's the most important thing.
He doesn't correct in a way that makes you feel ashamed. He corrects in such a way that you begin to realise where you went wrong. That's the ultimate.
Who is looking for a teacher who knows how to not only teach but also support - here, seriously, Jose. He's calm, warm, and yet really knows how to explain. Checked.
