Our faces

The courses are taught by skilled Nicaraguan teachers with a solid background in Spanish as a foreign language. Based on our experience, we suggest that you try to rely exclusively on Spanish in our classes, but our teachers also have a command of English to help you if necessary.

We work with several teachers, so that each student receives more than classes with an instructor, which allows students to have contact with different personalities and skills.

Here we give you an introduction of our staff (teachers and office workers):

Personal Comments:

Teaching Spanish to foreigners has given me a nice intercultural experience. In addition to enrich my professional experience, having fallen in love more and more of my language, has been an invaluable opportunity to grow as a human being. Thanks to all my students: listen speak Spanish makes me feel part of their triumphs.

What I do in EEM:

I am the person in charge of training, paper work and accounting of the spanish school. We both Luisa and I started the spanish school from zero, it means, with no school material and without experience teaching spanish as a second language. We both created a lot of materials and were the first teachers in the school, now neither Luisa nor I are teaching Spanish, we spend more time in the organizacion and administration itself. I have many responsabilities in my field, but I like to do every one of them, I check what is in the school material, create, administer and arrange the manuals of the school for the students and teachers. I organise the training days for the teachers and reproduction and organization of paper work in files
I take the monthly general accounting of the school and, with Victoria's support, who is the person in charge for cleanliness, we stay awake for creating a clean and agreeable ambience for all. Ah! Also, together with Luisa, we organize recreative activities for the team of work.
