¡Hola!
This is Elena, CEO of the school.

and why our school is different from the rest.
Our school
At Español en Tapitas we teach the Spanish that's actually used: the one from real conversations, TV series, bars, and WhatsApp groups. Not the textbook kind. We work with authentic materials because we believe the best way to learn a language is to live it, not study it. Lessons are personalized, flexible, and above all, entertaining. Each student has their own goals and pace, and we adapt to that. All online, from wherever you are, with teachers who know how to teach and actually enjoy doing it.
Our teaching style
Our lessons are geared towards teenagers and adults, from beginner to advanced levels.
who want to improve their language skills while enjoying it.
Our pillars
1
Real Spanish
Here we teach the Spanish that's actually spoken. The one you hear at the bar with friends, in TV series, and in WhatsApp groups. Not the textbook kind or the Duolingo version. The one that makes you sound like someone from here.
2
Natural Learning
No verb lists. No textbook Spanish from the 90s. Just the language people actually use—at the bar with your friends, in series, in WhatsApp chats. The kind that makes you sound like a local.
3
Warmth and Good Humor
Here you learn with jokes, affection, and zero solemnity. Because learning a language doesn't have to be dramatic. That said: I'm the teacher, and that doesn't change. Trust and rigor aren't at odds. You learn more when you feel comfortable.
4
Action from Day 1
Use it first, polish it later. From day one you speak, write, and dare. First you use it, then you refine it. That's how it really works, and that's how we do it here. Mistakes are part of the process, not the end of it.
The teachers
At Español en Tapitas, we have a team of native teachers who not only know how to teach, but also make it fun! Each class is tailored to your needs and goals, with pace, practice, and a touch of humor to ensure that learning Spanish is always enjoyable, dynamic, and effective.

Elena
This is Elena, the mind (and the laugh) behind Español en Tapitas . I've been teaching Spanish to students all over the world for over fifteen years, both online and in person. During this time, I've had students of all ages and levels, each with their own goals: from passing an exam to feeling more confident traveling, working, or simply chatting at a bar without fear of not being understood.
For me, learning a language doesn't have to be boring: my classes are full of rhythm, variety, and a great sense of humor. I like my students to speak, make mistakes, laugh, and learn without even realizing it. Because when you're enjoying yourself, Spanish just flows... like a perfectly served tapa.

Hello! This is Rosa, a Spanish and French teacher, and also passionate about languages and teaching.
I studied French Philology and have a master's degree in teaching Spanish and French. I am currently continuing my professional development in this field because I love sharing my language and culture with people from all over the world.
In my classes you will find a practical and enjoyable approach, with fun activities, interactive exercises and a relaxed atmosphere, so that you can speak Spanish with confidence from the very first moment, adapting each class to the needs and objectives of my students.
See you in class!
