Private online lessons with Patrícia Diez Garisto, certified in Values Coaching by Zinquo, a language teacher who has lived and taught in Spain, the United States and Portugal, and knows what it is like to be the foreigner. 100% online, from wherever you are.
You come with a goal: settling in, a new job, an exam, a move abroad. Each lesson is built around it, from complete beginner to advanced (C2 on the Common European Framework).
Mostly for Brazilians, also for anyone who wants conversation, DELE preparation or Spanish for work.
For people who have just arrived in Brazil, or are about to, and want to feel at home: speak with confidence at the market, at work and with friends.
Learning a language changes much more than your vocabulary. The lessons work on the language and on the person speaking it.
Every student is different and learns differently. Lessons mix texts, videos, audio and conversation about current topics, always starting from what matters to you. No sitting back and listening: you ask, answer, make mistakes without fear and become independent.
Her lessons are so good you don't notice the time go by. I feel completely at ease to speak, make mistakes and ask questions.

One hour to get to know each other, assess your level and understand your goal.
Pace, topics and materials set around your goal: settling in, work, travel or an exam.
Reading, writing, listening and speaking with real-world materials and the culture behind the language.
Regular feedback so you can see how far you've come and gain the confidence to speak.
My grandparents came from Spain to Brazil in the 1950s. I grew up speaking both languages and connecting with Spain's history, geography and customs. That story is where my wish to make language my profession began.
After more than a decade in multinational companies, Patrícia changed careers: she earned her master's in Granada and taught in the United States and Portugal. Back in Brazil since 2018, she works as a cultural bridge in both directions, teaching Spanish to Brazilians and Portuguese to newcomers.
A language is learned by living it: at the table, in the street, on the road. A few moments with students and exchange students in Brazil and Spain.
Her dedication, patience and passion for teaching make every lesson engaging and productive. Patrícia is an incredible teacher, always explaining things clearly and accessibly and adapting to each student's needs.

Spanish was hard for me and she made everything seem simpler. If I could learn at my age, anyone can. Highly recommended!

Punctual and organised. Relaxed, enjoyable lessons, which was essential for me, since we started after a long day at work.

An excellent professional who adapts her method to each student's needs, at any level. Her teaching makes you want to dive even deeper into new cultures, histories and traditions.
