Freeda El Born team

Hello! My name is Txell and I love languages. I speak Spanish, Catalan, English, French and a bit of Japanese. Therefore, I know very well what it means to learn a language and, for me, it is a tool that opens many doors and allows you to get to know other cultures.

As a teacher, I am creative and organised and I like each class to be like a new adventure, where the student feels comfortable and safe, in an atmosphere of trust and cooperative learning.
And speaking of adventures, I am also in charge of the school's excursions and events - I love showing my city and my culture to the students!

I am from Tenerife (Canary Islands). If there's one thing I'm passionate about, it's music, and my students know it from day one. I also like cinema and literature.

I always try to have a good atmosphere in class, because my main challenge is that besides learning, we have a great time.

In addition to teaching in different academies in Barcelona, I have worked as a volunteer for several NGOs and associations.

I like classes in which we all participate.

I believe in the teacher as a guide and at the same time as part of the team, learning is a journey that we all go on, reading, talking, listening to music, experiencing the ride, getting to know each other!

After years of teaching Spanish I am still fascinated by helping people who come to learn to communicate better every day.

I like languages and having fun.

Hi there! I'm Lara, from Madrid. I've been teaching languages since 2006.

I've lived in England and Amsterdam.

For me, a great Spanish class requires humor, connection, and dedication. I'm very passionate about creativity, music, art, and theater.

I am from León and I have been teaching since 2001. I have lived in other countries and, in addition to Spanish, I speak English, German and a little Russian.

I think that the most important thing when learning a language is what you do with it when you are not in the classroom.

My classes are creative, intense and useful.

I'm Daniel. I've been a teacher since 2016.
The foundation of a class is communication. You'll be speaking Spanish from minute one.

As a teacher, I'm patient, passionate, creative, adaptable, and full of energy. I love talking about and listening to culture.

Hi, I'm Alicia. My passion for language and my love for reading led me to study Hispanic Philology. My professional career has been primarily focused on teaching Spanish, a profession in which I have been learning and evolving for 12 years.

What I love most about teaching Spanish is the challenge of teaching something so dynamic and rich, helping students to use it and learn to value it. I consider myself an attentive and empathetic teacher. I highly value dialogue, initiative, and motivation. That's why in my classes, I seek to enhance active participation and interaction through varied, dynamic, and motivating activities that allow students to apply what they learn in real life, making the learning process natural and progressive.

My name is Mª Ángeles, but everyone calls me Marigel. I have been a Spanish teacher for 28 years. In my free time I enjoy yoga, hiking, reading and writing.

The main objective of my classes is that students are able to speak and interact, so I prepare activities that lead them to do so in an easy and gradual way.

If you want to speak Spanish, we are waiting for you!

Hi, my name is Mari, and I have been working as a Spanish teacher for 11 years. I am also a DELE examiner.
For me being a teacher is not just a job, but a very important part of my life. I am an open-minded, sociable person with character and a lot of fun.

My classes are usually quite communicative without forgetting grammar rules and other important skills to learn a language. I try to adapt myself to the student in order to apply the different teaching methods I have learnt over the years. However, I think that what most characterises my classes is positive energy and good humour.

My name is Mariana, and I’m originally from Mexico City, though I’ve always felt a strong connection to Spain. From 2007 to 2013, I lived in Madrid, where I had the opportunity to immerse myself in a variety of cultures. During that time, I also traveled to Malta in 2010 to study English and to Italy in 2012 to learn Italian.
After returning to Mexico for 10 years, I dedicated myself to developing my teaching skills and nurturing my passion for education. Now, I’ve returned to Spain, this time settling in Catalonia, with a new purpose: to meet you and share the beauty of the Spanish language.
In my classes, you’ll enjoy the learning process while improving your reading, speaking, listening, and writing skills every day. My goal is to guide you on your language journey, and I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to help. See you soon!
