Spanish Classes in Denver, CO

“My students are asking and answering simple questions in Spanish by the second or third class, and they are simply thrilled with the results!”


Nina trained to be a language teacher at Berlitz School of Languages in Mexico City and used this methodology to teach two Mexican presidents to speak English. She is very proud of the fact that they specifically requested her for every English class while studying at the school.


Nina was a senior Spanish instructor at the Spanish center of Colorado for University where she designed Spanish courses and taught hundreds of students for more than 12 years.

Nina teaches private one-on-one Spanish lessons and small group classes that are personalized to the skill level and learning style of each student.

Private Spanish Lesson Book
“It is all about the individual student. I don’t teach to a book. Everyone learns differently and if I understand how you process and retain information I can teach you to speak Spanish.”

“Whether it is group classes or one-on-one, it’s all about keeping people engaged and giving them much more skill and confidence than they thought they could possibly achieve, and much, much faster!”

      “I am elated today, having just spoken in spanish with my first colleague from Mexico! Nina’s classes give me not only the proper words, grammar and pronunciation to display conversation, but also a demeanor which would impress my new colleague. It is incredibly empowering to speak to a new partner in their native language. Without classes with Nina, I would not have the confidence or the skill to do so!
      Thank you Nina!”
      ~ Krista Muddle National Park Service Denver Colorado


      “Nina has provided reliable advice that shows her years of experience in communicating between two very different business cultures and languages. My advice now is don’t try it alone. Doing the job right means getting this kind of help from the get-go, when business relationships with Spanish-speakers are just being created.”
      ~ Brian Price
