Bio
I am the most dynamic and patient Spanish Teacher anyone could wish to have. I am passionate about teaching.
I was born with the gift to teach and get through to my students. I have the patience and know-how to explain things in a fun easy way. I conduct lessons where students fully participate in active conversation. Lessons are tailor-made for my students' needs. I assist with exam preparation where we iron out many of the misunderstandings of the language that students have previously encountered.

Reviews from others
“Ely has a unique way of explaining and making sure that we are always on the same page. She always allows for revision. We will not move from a topic until we are both comfortable that I know understand what is being taught. I am extremely impressed with her teaching abilities and I could not have asked for a better Tutor.”- Rabiah
“Ely is an absolutely amazing tutor. She is patient and puts a lot of effort & thought into her lessons. She is exceptionally knowledgeable in the Spanish language and if there is something that she is unsure of she is certain to find out. I would definitely recommend Ely as a tutor to anyone wanting to learn Spanish. She really is amazing.”- Carrie
“I wish I had known her last year, I would be fluent by now. Ely is an excellent teacher, very thorough in explanations and applies concepts repeatedly so much that it’s easy for me to remember. She truly is an amazing teacher, I can’t find anything to fault. In just 1 week, I have learnt and mastered way over 100 words and phrases. I am glad Teachme2 recommended her. ”- Jarred
“Ely is always supportive and finds a way to seemingly integrate my questions while still conducting her own lesson plan. It's always a pleasure to see Ely every week! ”- Clayton
“Ely is amazingly patient with me - I ask many questions as sometimes just theoretical books do not explain something clearly- but she then helps. It’s great for me that she is teaching me in Peruvian Spanish (useful for me as I work with Peruvians and Chileans). She is always enthusiastic.”- Marius
