Introduction: I am a 29-year-old native of Paraguay and bilingual in Spanish and English.
I offer personalized Spanish classes to adults of all ability levels.
A bit about me:
I was originally trained in language education in Paraguay and, later, in the United Kingdom where I was employed as a full-time Spanish teacher at a top-rated London grammar school.
Some of my former students are now studying Spanish at Oxford and Cambridge Universities. I also taught English on behalf of the U.S. Embassy in Paraguay.
Over the past few years, I have gained extensive experience working as a private Spanish tutor here in Washington. My students are employees of both the public and private sectors, and/or graduate level university students.
My Teaching Philosophy:
All my classes are prepared on an individual basis according to the specific needs of each student. I also have a great deal of flexibility, so I can work around your schedule.
Please contact me if interested.
I look forward to helping you achieve your Spanish language goals.
Muchas gracias.
Francisco Torres.
Spanish Tutor.
References from students in Washington:
Francisco is a wonderful teacher. His patience and persistence is never ending and he makes each lesson fun and interactive. Because he is a native speaker, he has great back stories for words and phrases that help you remember them. His tailor-made lesson plans and friendly demeanor make learning Spanish fun and easy! I highly recommend Francisco to anyone interested in learning or perfecting their Spanish!

I've really enjoyed my Spanish classes with Francisco. As an advanced student, I was looking for a tutor who really understood the ins and outs of Spanish grammar and structure - and would diligently correct my mistakes.
He is a great teacher who always takes the time to prepare customized lessons. I highly recommend him - whether you're just fine tuning your Spanish or starting from scratch!

Francisco is the best Spanish teacher. He met my requests immediately. He never stopped correcting my mistakes, even if I had made the same mistake for the 20th time. I recommend Francisco very much whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced student.

Francisco is a very dedicated, creative and experienced teacher. I took classes in order to learn Spanish for my work in an international organization and have to know Spanish. I can highly recommend Francisco's classes.
