Arturo isn’t just a native Spanish speaker—he’s a highly qualified educator with years of experience, advanced academic training, and a passion for modern, student-centered learning. Whether you’re just starting or moving into more confident conversations, you’ll be in excellent hands.
Arturo’s Academic Background
One of the things that makes Arturo stand out is the strength of his academic preparation. His entire career has been built around education.
He holds:
- A Bachelor’s degree in Education
- A Master’s degree in Education
- And he is currently pursuing a PhD in Educational Innovation
His doctoral work focuses on how students learn best—how to make lessons more engaging, how to build autonomy, and how to create real, lasting understanding. This background shapes everything he does inside the classroom and gives students a huge advantage: you’re not just being taught Spanish, you’re being taught by someone who understands the science of learning.
International Experience
Arturo is a native Spanish speaker who is also fully bilingual in English. A big part of his fluency and cultural understanding comes from having lived in San Francisco, California, where he continued developing both academically and culturally.
This international experience means he knows exactly where English speakers struggle when learning Spanish. He understands the grammar traps, pronunciation challenges, and cultural differences that can make Spanish feel confusing. Because he’s lived in both worlds, he teaches in a way that feels familiar, relatable, and accessible.
His Coaching Style: Modern, Clear, and Student-Centered
If you ask Arturo what makes a great class, he’ll tell you it’s one where the student is active. His philosophy is built around:
- Active learning: You won’t just memorize—you’ll use Spanish from the very beginning.
- Meaningful challenges: Not too easy, not too hard—just the right level to help you grow.
- Exploration: Students are encouraged to think, ask, and discover.
- Autonomy: You’ll gain confidence by taking an active role in your learning.
His classes blend clarity + structure + innovation. Expect activities that make sense, explanations that feel simple, and lessons that flow naturally. Students often say they feel supported, motivated, and genuinely engaged.
A Warm Welcome to Arturo!
We’re incredibly excited to welcome Arturo to the Speak Better Spanish team. His expertise, passion for teaching, and deep understanding of both education and bilingual learning make him a perfect fit for our community.
Whether you’re in one-to-one coaching, group conversation classes or an upcoming workshop, we can’t wait for you to meet him and experience his teaching firsthand.

Video transcript
Hola, amigos. Hannah from Speak Better Spanish here. I wanted to welcome a new face to the Speak Better Spanish teaching community. We have Arturo here with us today. He is our newest coach and also happens to be my boyfriend. Hello, everyone. Hola a todos. My name is Arturo and I'm from Mexico. I care about the education and about creating spaces where we can all share and learn from each other. I'm really happy to introduce myself. I believe that learning is a two-way process. Students learn from the teacher and the teacher also learns from the students.
I'm excited for us to build a supportive, respectful, and meaningful learning experience as a team. Thank you very much for welcoming me and see you very soon. ¡Adiós!
