SpanishSkype – Online Spanish teachers via Skype

Course coordinator and online Spanish teacher

My name is Juana Ruiz Mena, founder of SpanishSkype and your online Spanish teacher via Skype. Pleased to meet you.

I have a degree in Teaching from the University of Murcia. Due to my passion for teaching I then specialised in Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language (ELE) and obtained a Master in ELE at the University of Antonio Nebrija in Madrid. I have also done a number of ELE teacher training courses and seminars at national and international centres like the Instituto Cervantes, University of Castilla la Mancha, University of Murcia, Leeds University and the Ortega and Gasset Organisation.

Now, I am taking another Master degree in teaching Languages online.

I found my experience of training other teachers to teach Spanish, both in Spain and abroad, a particularly enriching experience as a professional, and through Teaching Training seminars I have learned much from my imaginative and dedicated fellow teachers.

I have been working as a Spanish teacher for 14 years in various Institutions:

• Instituto de Cervantes in Leeds – Manchester (UK)
• University of Leeds (UK)
• University of Carlos III in Madrid
• Tandem, International School, Madrid
• Official School of Languages, Madrid
• Spanish Skype, Online Spanish School

This passion for teaching has also led me to work with a number of Spanish Publishers and I have written and published a variety of teaching material (Click to enlarge):
