Claudia Del Castillo-Caycedo

Certified Spanish Learning Coach

Spanish Learning Coach Online

I was born and raised in Bogotá, Colombia and I hold a BA in Literature and a Master’s in Journalism. For over 10 years I have worked as an editor, copywriter, teacher, journalist and certified English-Spanish translator. I am currently a freelancer teaching ESL, translating for private and public entities and in the process of drafting my first book.

My Skills

Creative: When it comes to finding new and fun ways to teach the language, I'm always up for something new.

Logical: As a native Spanish speaker, I can understand the logic of the language and find ways to explain it so that the student can process knowledge better.

Emphatical: Learning a new language can be difficult and even a stressful factor for many. As someone who speaks different languages, I can relate to such issues and listen to the students in order to make them feel better with their progress.

My tutoring style

With my tutoring style you would be able to enjoy everyday life activities with friends such as enjoying food and culture through basic expressions.
