About me

Hello, I am Gabriela.

I am an educator, translator, and lifelong language learner. I believe adults learn best when lessons are practical, respectful of their experience, and connected to the real situations they face every day, whether that is helping a guest at the front desk, speaking up in a meeting, or talking with their child's teacher.

My classes are warm, patient, and structured. You will practice real conversations from the very first lesson, and you will always know what you are working toward.

Questions

Good to know

I am a complete beginner. Is that okay?

Absolutely. Many of my students start with very little English. We begin with the words and phrases you need most, and Spanish support is available.

Are lessons online or in person?

Both. Online lessons work from anywhere, and in person lessons are available in the Incline Village and Lake Tahoe area.

How much do lessons cost?

Rates depend on the format and number of lessons. Send me a message and I will share current prices and package options.

Can my employer arrange classes for our team?

Yes. I currently teach workplace English for hotel employees and can design a program for your business and your staff schedules.

Ready to start?

Write to me with your goals and schedule. I am happy to answer questions in English or Spanish.
