Definitely recommend Ojala - currently taking classes with Roberto and really enjoying it. The classes are interesting and have loads of content, but also feel really informal and enjoyable.

After attempting to learn Spanish for several years , I realised I needed more help with grammar and Roberto has helped me enormously. His lessons are well structured around a weekly theme with preparatory information and exercises . The topics are relevant , contemporary and interesting. Roberto’s command of both Spanish and English languages is impressive and , best of all, he is kind and extremely patient . More...

They explain complex grammar in an easy-to-follow way and provide fantastic practice materials. My confidence in speaking Spanish has improved massively.

For the past 3 months I’ve been taking a Spanish class at Ojalá Spanish Academy with Roberto, and he is an excellent teacher. He has a calm, friendly approach that immediately puts students at ease, and he actively encourages us to speak Spanish from the start. Roberto is always generous with extra materials and exercises to help us practise grammar and improve outside class. Because of his teaching style and support, I’ve become much more confident talking and having conversations in Spanish. I highly recommend his classes to anyone who wants to boost their confidence and learn in a supportive and motivating environment. More...

I was very reluctant to have Spanish lessons on-line as I had previously only had face to face session with other teachers. However this teacher was recommended to me by a friend. I decided to try one lesson and realised what a great idea it was. Roberto, my teacher, is fantastic. He is knowledgeable, supportive, enthusiastic and offers flexible learning plans. I could not be happier with my choice of this on-line Academy. More...

I have been a customer of this business for several years now. The tutor, Roberto, is excellent. His patience and unobtrusive help is so good at helping you speak good Spanish and gain confidence. The classes are varied, with a really interesting mix of subjects, plenty of speaking practice and time to learn some essential grammar. Roberto is also available between classes if you need any extra information or assistance. I look forward to each class very much. More...

When I began to learn Spanish I knew nothing other than ‘hello’ and the usual phrases However since I began classes with Ojalá Spanish Academy my confidence has grown along with my vocabulary I can’t praise them enough for the patience and the encouragement that they give to everyone in class no matter what their knowledge If you have an interest in learning and speaking this wonderful language, I sincerely recommend Ojalá to begin your journey

Roberto is a fantastic teacher. Knowledgeable, patient, fun, flexible and enthusiastic. He understands if I’m having a bad day and his encouragement and understanding never waivers. He progresses my learning carefully and with my full involvement. I never thought I could learn on zoom but he makes it very natural and easy. I would strongly recommend Ojala Spanish Academy for all - beginners, intermediates or advanced learners. More...

I have been learning with Roberto for 2 years in a small online group at approximately B2 level. We have all progressed well in the group with plenty of opportunity for each participant to participate. The classes generally start with conversation allowing each person to contribute, then a little grammar and in to the main topic of the day. Roberto has a massive range of materials that he draws on in class on just about any subject you can imagine. He seems to know about everything! This format works well for us as we can participate even if away from home (we visit Spain often) and Roberto has been flexible on occasions when we can't attend with alternative dates or occasional cancellation.

Learning Spanish with Ojalá is a fun and informative experience. Roberto, who is a native Spanish speaker, is clear and concise in his explanations and can even make learning grammar fun! The topics we cover in class for conversation are always very varied and interesting and help us learn about Spain and the many Spanish speaking countries in the world. I can recommend Ojalá Spanish Academy whether you want to learn to speak Spanish as a beginner or if you want to improve the Spanish you already know. More...

What do you love most about your job?
It is very rewarding to help my students improve their Spanish.
Many of them start without knowing any Spanish and become fluent in the language.
I love to make my students enjoy this process and transmit my passion for my native language and culture.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was asked by some friends to teach them Spanish. After a few months, I enjoyed it so much that I started studying a degree in modern languages. During the following years, I taught Spanish in colleges and in private lessons.
I decided to start my own business to have the freedom to do what I love.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have an unbeatable and professional lesson structure (no books needed, provide everything you need)
My plan works, it has been tested and improved for seven years. With my help and guidance plus some effort on your part, I guarantee you will speak Spanish.
Because my classes are focused on practice, although without forgetting the key concepts of grammar.
The lessons are fun and friendly.
You will not regret it!
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
My classes usually are online. I use the zoom platform, although I am open to using any other platform for the student's convenience.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I used to do my lessons in person, but due to the covid pandemic, most of the students moved to online lessons.
After the pandemic, nobody wants to go back to in-person lessons, it's so comfortable and convenient that most of them continue remotely.
