About Karina
¡Hola!
I'm Karina, a passionate native Spanish teacher with a love for connecting with people from all over the world.
Teaching Spanish has not only allowed me to share this beautiful language but has also opened doors to incredible friendships and meaningful learning experiences.
My journey as a teacher began when I was just a little girl. Believe it or not, my favorite toy was a board I used to teach my imaginary students! Haha, I guess you could say my love for teaching was there from the start!
When I'm not teaching Spanish (or occasionally French), you'll find me hiking through nature, exploring new places, or enjoying time with family and friends with lots of laughter, of course. That's why humor plays such an important role in my lessons!
My teaching adventure began nine years ago, during my university days studying Modern Foreign Languages. Back then, I tutored children and adults in English and French. Fast forward to my third year, and I was granted an Erasmus scholarship that took me to Wroclaw, Poland. There, I taught French and Spanish to Polish students — all while communicating in English!
In the past three years, I've expanded my expertise by completing a Spanish for Foreigners course at the prestigious Miguel de Cervantes University. Since then, I've had the privilege of working as a freelance teacher for academies in my hometown and London, teaching students from all over the world, both online and face-to-face. I've also collaborated with companies, offering business Spanish and French lessons.
Teaching is my passion, and I look forward to helping you on your Spanish learning journey, making it fun, engaging, and full of opportunities for growth!
SUPERPROF TEACHER INTERVIEW:
1) Do you speak this language fluently because of your origins or because a teacher inspired you to learn?
- I am originally from Spain, so Spanish is my mother tongue! When I was a kid up to 14 years-old, I attended a school where they taught German (and I was also very good at it!), however I fell in love with French when I changed school and that's the language they used to teach... and the rest is history :)
2) Can you name a living, historical or fictional character that you think is the emblematic representative of the language's culture?
- For Spanish, it is "Anacleto, Agente Secreto", who is a secret agent with very bad luck! and for French, I used to love watching "Titeuf" and "Tintin".
3) Is there a typical word, phrase, tradition or behavior in the language that you particularly like?
- In Spanish, we love to stay at the table after finishing our food just to keep the conversation going with our friends/family, this is called "sobremesa" and I love that tradition, specially during summer!
4) Why does speaking this language matter to you?
- Spanish is my mother tongue and it's a language that makes me feel as myself, with all its sayings, expressions, jokes... with my level of English and French I can manage to express jokes as well, but sometimes it's not the same because you can't translate literally.
5) What is the main difficulty in learning this language and what can help the process of learning?
- The main difficulty in learning Spanish can be expecting to speak, write and comprehend in a short time. It takes discipline and not having high expectations, just to try to have fun! Learning Spanish with me means you will take steady steps and you will build a great foundation. It will be like a garden that we will prepare and then we will add flowers to it.
6) Provide a valuable anecdote related to your language learning or your days at school.
- I remember when I was a kid at school and I was learning English, my classmates would always ask me for help to complete certain tasks, and I loved helping them!
7) How has travel or a specific trip helped you to increase your skill and knowledge of the language?
- I have lived in France, Poland and the UK, so these experiences definitely made me have a complete immersion in the language and the culture, and therefore I could improve my skills a lot.
8) What makes you a Superprof in language?
- I have more than 8 years of teaching experience and I constantly attend courses, events and workshops to keep up to date with new trends in learning/teaching in order to provide my students with the best learning experience. Currently, I am taking a university course in Digital Learning, to elevate the lessons for my online students.

Perfect! Clearly an experienced teacher and very friendly
Perfect! Very kind and communicated very well with the student. Would definitely recommend.
Perfect! Karina is kind, friendly and patient. She put me at ease straight away which gave me confidence to try to speak Spanish (something I am nervous to do). She's an experienced and knowledgeable teacher and I appreciate the effort she makes to plan lessons and support her students. I feel lucky to have her as my teacher.
- I’m thrilled to have had my first lesson with Rachel. She came with a genuine interest in learning Spanish and took the lesson seriously. I’m excited to see how she grows and look forward to supporting her in reaching her language goals!Karina's response :

Karina is SUPER kind, patient, and makes it fun to learn Spanish! She does an amazing job breaking down difficult topics to bite size pieces so that you understand what is going on. I learned a LOT with Karina, and when I found things to become easy, she quickly adapted and increases the difficulty to ensure I was getting the most out of my time. I HIGHLY recommend learning Spanish with Karina!!
above all Karina is super kind and patient! the energy her classroom has makes it such a comfortable and welcoming safe space! She’s funny and friendly which translates directly into her teaching style..Karina has definitely sparked the encouragement that i needed! for that i’m thankful!
Karina is very easy to speak to and get along with. She made me feel at ease and comfortable speaking in Spanish with her. I feel like I learned more with her than any other tutor I’ve had before.
I have been learning Spanish with Karina since about a year and a half. She's an excellent teacher, very professional, thorough and well prepared. She adapts each lesson to my specific needs and as a result I have made significant progress.
She's also very friendly, and has been accommodating when it came to my busy schedule.
I highly recommend her. ¡Recomiendo altamente a Karina!
I had the pleasure of being tutored by Karina in Spanish, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Karina is an exceptional teacher who is not only knowledgeable but also incredibly patient and encouraging. Her teaching style is engaging and tailored to the individual needs of her students. She helped me grasp complex grammar concepts and improve my conversational skills. Karina's enthusiasm for the language and culture was contagious and made the learning process enjoyable. I highly recommend Karina to anyone looking to learn or improve their Spanish. She's a fantastic tutor!If you are looking for a fun, professional and skilled Spanish language professor, then Karina is who you are looking for. She is always committed on every lesson and she prepares each session with material tailored for each student. I could not wish for a better option!
Karina is excellent, after really struggling to learn the tenses she explained it in a way that made it seem so simple. My Spanish has improved massively with her.
She is extremely patient and explains things very well. I have had a few Spanish tutors in the past and she is by far the best one I’ve had so far!
