About Donovan
Hi! Taking Spanish at school but having trouble getting your head around all the verb conjugations? "Por" and "para" got you confused? Got an exam coming up and want to review? Need someone to check your homework? Just want some extra practice? I'm an Australian and I taught myself to speak Spanish fluently within 8 months of arriving in Mexico. Within a year and a half, I had entered into the University of Guadalajara to study a BA in Hispanic Literature alongside native Spanish speakers. I'm currently top of my class in every subject, despite being the only foreigner in the degree. In November 2021, I was certified C2 (the highest level of Spanish) by the Instituto Cervantes. I currently give one-to-one Spanish classes with other expats living here in Guadalajara, as well as online classes for students living abroad. I have helped my students learn to express themselves in Spanish, integrate into Mexican society, and make new friends. So don't wait! Contact me today to see how I can help you!

How I teach you depends on what you need.
My students love my visual classes, where I use images to teach you the vocabulary you need and help you develop your speaking confidence.
I also offer games, reading activities, video content designed by native speakers for native speakers. We can have practice conversations where I don't correct you and we just let the conversation flow.
I have a variety of textbooks that we can use, and these can be especially useful if you're the type of person who likes to do homework. However, a textbook isn't everything, especially when it comes to acquiring a new language. Language is about communication, after all.
I also have an extensive knowledge of Spanish grammar and a near-native vocabulary level, so if you just want to ask me grammar questions or what something means, I can do that too!
Classes will be via Zoom.

I heard of Donovan through a local FB group for expats, and then met him at a Spanish restaurant with his Mexican girlfriend. He never hesitated in his speech and his Spanish was accent-free. I was impressed! His teaching style is free-form: he does a check of your level of fluency and then follows up with content and style of learning (textbooks, videos, games, whatever) that suit you. I recommend Donovan because, as a native English speaker himself, he understands what is baffling and difficult about learning Spanish. And there's never a dull moment in our lessons!
Donovan is amazing! He is clear and precise and extremely patient and understanding. Couldn’t recommend him more!
Donovan is always on time with lessons and the content is easy to follow. My Spanish has improved greatly after my lessons with him. Highly recommended.
Donovan was incredibly patient with me and made learning a new language fun! He catered to my learning needs and ensured that i was satisfied after each lesson. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Donny!
Donovan is an excellent teacher with a great passion for his job and will go out of his way to help you reach your goals.
