Everything is connected
My goal is not just to teach you Spanish
It's to make the new words, grammar constructions and ideas you learn last forever — and to learn them easily. That's why everything is connected:
-
Wednesday
The newsletter lands
On Substack you get an etymological explanation of some words or constructions (linking them to English or other languages like Russian, French or Italian), a song related to that topic for cultural immersion, and a text with the key vocabulary from that week's podcast episode.
-
Friday
A new podcast episode
An episode about everyday topics not many Spanish podcasts cover — from olives to brushing your teeth, and places all over Spain. Premium subscribers get the full transcription, vocabulary lists and flashcards. You'll hear the words from the newsletter in real Spanish context.
-
Next week
Talk about it in the group lesson
Join a group lesson to answer the questions from the end of the episode and discuss them with other students (and me, of course!). You'll use the new words in a real conversation — newsletter, podcast and lesson working together.

What students say
“I have been taking lessons with Hector for a while now, and I can confidently say he is an outstanding Spanish tutor. He is always punctual, well-prepared, and highly attentive during our sessions. What sets him apart is his ability to teach colloquial expressions and natural phrasing, helping me sound more like a native speaker. Above all, I feel comfortable speaking with him, which makes every lesson enjoyable and productive. If you're looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable Spanish tutor, I highly recommend Hector!”
“I love learning with Hector. He is very encouraging and seems just as excited as I am when I learn something new. We are reading a really good book together and I always look forward to our classes so that I can find out what happens next.”
“Héctor is a great teacher! I really enjoy learning Spanish with him. Our lessons are incredible because I'm interested in medical vocabulary — I'm a veterinarian, so it's very important for me. And I love talking with Héctor because I learn colloquial expressions and a lot about Spanish culture. Thanks to him I know so many things about Spain and Spanish!”
