Hi, I’m Jader, one of the Spanish teachers here at The Spanish Learning Club.

I have over 12 years of experience teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language, along with international training and a background in linguistics and literature. I work with students of all ages and levels—from complete beginners (A1) to advanced speakers (C2), including teenagers and adults up to 81 years old!

At The Spanish Learning Club, I focus on making my classes fun, personalized, and professional. I love blending language learning with cultural insights, which makes the journey more engaging and meaningful for my students.

My colleagues and students often describe me as super patient, attentive, and fun—as well as very organized. I aim to be not just a teacher, but also a guide and a trustworthy friend in the learning process.

Outside of class, I’m passionate about cycling and going to the mountains. I enjoy connecting with new people and cultures (which is one reason I love what I do). I’m also deeply spiritual and love singing gospel music. I’m always looking to learn something new, reflect, and improve both personally and professionally.

I’m proud to be part of the team at The Spanish Learning Club—where we believe learning Spanish can be an exciting, enriching, and life-changing experience.

Hi! I’m a Spanish teacher here at The Spanish Learning Club, originally from Bogotá, Colombia.

From a very young age, I was drawn to languages and fascinated by the ways different cultures connect through communication. I studied English and French at school, and later had the chance to participate in an academic exchange in France—an experience that deepened my language skills and broadened my worldview through travel.

Back in Colombia, I began studying Communication and Journalism, and around the same time—back in 2001—I started teaching Spanish informally. That experience, combined with my work in voice-over, opened the doors to exciting opportunities with diplomatic missions and NGOs based in Colombia.

Over time, I developed a specialization in Spanish for Specific Purposes, including Spanish for diplomacy, healthcare, and the humanitarian sector. I eventually pursued a Master’s in Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language and continue to update my skills every year through professional development courses. I truly believe in lifelong learning, both as a teacher and as a person.

Today, I live in a rural area in the beautiful Colombian Andes, close to the capital but surrounded by nature—a lifestyle I deeply enjoy. I’m passionate about animals, the simple things in life, and the meaningful connections I get to make through teaching.

Thanks to technology, I now teach Spanish online—an amazing opportunity that led me to become part of The Spanish Learning Club. Here, I’m proud to share my experience and passion with learners from around the world in a dynamic, supportive, and culturally rich environment.

Hi! I’m the founder of The Spanish Learning Club, and I’m originally from Colombia, where I was born and raised speaking Spanish as my mother tongue. I started learning English at school from the age of five, which sparked my curiosity for languages early on.

When I was 18, I travelled to Israel and fell in love with Hebrew. That experience opened my eyes to the incredible power of languages—not just for communication, but for truly understanding cultures, forming friendships while traveling, and opening doors to study and work around the world.

After returning to Colombia, I married an Englishman, and a few years later, in 2006, we decided to settle in the UK. Since then, I’ve been dedicated to teaching Spanish and sharing the rich and diverse cultures of Latin America and Spain with students from all walks of life.

I’m passionate about learning and personal growth. I’m always working to improve my teaching skills, and by continuing to learn new languages myself, I gain valuable insight into what my students experience in their own learning journeys.

One of the most rewarding parts of my work is seeing students who begin with little or no Spanish gradually gain the confidence to hold meaningful conversations with native speakers. Watching that transformation is a constant reminder of why I do what I do.

At The Spanish Learning Club, my goal is to create a space where language learning is enjoyable, effective, and deeply connected to culture—and I’m so proud of the community we’ve built.
