Spanish Lessons/Translation/Editing
Spanish:
Help you begin learning, or help you brush up and improve what you already know.
I'm great with grammar, conversation, and pronunciation.
I'm very familiar with Latin American dialects as well as the Iberian dialect (Castellano), so if you're traveling, we can certainly target that region's specific grammar and vocabulary.
