I have now had about 5 lessons with Gema and each time my confidence level has increased. Not only are the lessons helping my overall fluency in Spanish, they are fun. I find that preparing for lessons in advance also helps me to focus on areas of development. Thank you Gema and I look forward to having more interactions with you.

I really enjoyed my first lesson with Gema. It has been a long time since I have been able to practice speaking in Spanish and I think our conversation went well. I found that Gema pushed me and encouraged me to use my knowledge of the language during our conversation and I think it went better than I expected it to. I will certainly be signing up for more sessions with Gema. Thank you!

So helpful! We jumped right into speaking on the first lesson and now that we are working together, Gema has given me "homework" assignments, and things to practice specific to my learning goals.
Hello, my name is Gema Graciela Jiménez, I am Mexican and I am a DELE teacher. I am a translator and interpreter and I have been living in Italy since 1990.
I love to meet new people from different places and cultures. I love to teach Spanish and talk about Mexican culture and know more about my students.
The world has become smaller with the Internet and it is a pleasure to connect and make new friends from far away.

Teaching Approach
Interactive activities with video and audio, focusing on the comprehension and conversation as the most important skills due to the students requests.
I usually invite my students to complete a level test before we start, it allows me to learn more about each student and any special needs. We will practice the verbs, vocabulary and grammar needed to complete a level then move forward with more confidence. Patience and consistency are clues to success in this journey.
