Who I am

I'm Olya. I've lived in Barcelona for six years and I'm in love with Spanish and Latin American culture. I hold a master's degree from the Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona in translation and teaching Spanish as a foreign language. Languages are my passion and my calling, and I try to make every student's experience their own.

What people usually ask

Are lessons online or in person?

One-to-one lessons run online or in person in Barcelona, whichever suits you. The conversation club happens weekly, online and in person in Barcelona.

I don't know my level. What now?

Nothing to prepare — we'll check it during the free 30 minutes and pick the format right there.

Do you take complete beginners?

Yes, one-to-one from A1. Mini groups start at A2 and the conversation club at B1.

How do I pay?

In euros, whichever way is convenient. You pay month by month — we'll sort the details at the free session.

Can I reschedule or cancel?

Yes. Let me know at least 5–6 hours ahead and the lesson isn't lost: we move it to another free slot the same month so you don't lose momentum.

Is there homework and materials?

Yes, both.
