Profesora de español inspiradora, creativa y apasionada con más de 25 años de experiencia internacional y licenciada en lengua, literatura y civilización españolas da clases a todos los niveles.

I joined an online Spanish course with Miriam during the Covid pandemic - it was one of the best things I ever did! She has been supportive and encouraging and inspiring. Her lessons are always interesting and well prepared, and the group has worked very well together. I have no hesitation in recommending Miriam to anyone looking for a tutor.

Miriam is a very pleasant and thoughtful teacher. Her lessons were engaging and she was very patient with everyone in class and most of all very encouraging. I enjoyed my lessons.

Miriam has been my Spanish tutor for more than a year now. She is very supportive, helpful, and flexible. My Spanish level really improved since starting my classes with Miriam. Miriam is making sure that we keep practicing all 4 four areas of the language while tailoring the classes to my needs. Overall, Miriam is an excellent tutor whom I can only highly recommend.

Miriam was such a lovely tutor, always keeping me well informed and had lots of wonderful resources for Higher Spanish. She was incredibly helpful and supported me so much throughout my tricky time learning Spanish basically from scratch. I would recommend Miriam to everyone as she is a kind and funny but also incredibly passionate about the support and success of her students.

Miriam is an incredible teacher who has inspired me to love Spanish. She has been tutoring me for about a year now and I am so grateful.
I used to struggle in my Spanish classes, getting confused and lost very frequently, but now with Miriam, I have improved significantly, I even managed to get the Spanish award in my school, much thanks to her.

Miriam makes my Spanish classes extremely fun, productive and effective. She is qualified and very knowledgable. I am so lucky to have her as a tutor, she has helped me understand and love the language.

She has been so encouraging and I truly recommend her!!!

I have had Ms Villafuerte as an A Level Spanish tutor for a year now and she has really helped me improve in all of my skills especially speaking.
She is very thorough when it comes to revising all the topics such as history, culture, society and literature.
She is very professional and encouraging and gives great tips when it comes to exams.
I would really recommend her!

Miriam is an amazing French tutor. She always goes with your pace and is very good at explaining. We’ve done a lot of reading and oral work as well. I believe that since I’ve been working with her, my confidence in speaking has improved massively.

I will be forever grateful to Mme Villafuerte. She guaranteed my excellent results in my IB exams. She helped me to overcome my shyness in speaking and gave me much confidence in writing French. Her custom exercises made grammar painless and fun. Best and coolest teacher ever!!!

Sra. Villafuerte was an excellent teacher in IB Spanish. Sra. Villafuerte has a wonderful way of breaking down concepts so so that they are easily understood. Her patience, energy and knowledge made her teaching sessions something worth looking forward to.

Ms Villafuerte has been an excellent teacher and has really helped me understand and excel in IB French. She is very motivational and I really enjoyed all of her teaching techniques. I really do strongly recommend her for any level or programme you may need.
Merci beaucoup Ms Villafuerte!

Miriam was my spanish teacher for several months in Milano. I used to go to her place for the lessons and she was always very welcoming. What I needed most was to practice my spoken spanish, and Miriam is an excellent conversationalist, therefore during our classes I had the chance to improve both my listening and speaking skills. In the end talking to her (while practicing my spanish) was like talking to a friend!

Miriam is a very good teacher. Clear and exhaustive when explain, enrich the lessons with extra material like newspapers, films, interviews and so on. She has an extensive knowledge end this give lively and never banal all lessons.

I went through a positive experience when I was taking one-to-one classes with Miriam. She is a tremendous thinker who prepares her class very well. She helped me a lot with my assignments and helped me understand my strengths and weaknesses in my way of learning. She had a clarity of discussion and explanation so that even the more difficult topics were easy to memorize.

Three words to describe my French teacher: professional, highly learned and motivating.

Miriam has been my Spanish tutor for 2 years. She has highly developed teaching skills, and above all is encouraging, friendly, and very easy to get on with.She transmits the desire to know more about Spanish and Cuban culture and literature
I would definitely recommend her

Miriam is a great professional who has a full command of her skills. She can easily understand each student’s needs and abilities, and this allows her to adjust her teaching method in order to provide a successful learning experience. She never puts pressure on her students but encourage them to find a learning strategy that suits them.

I highly recommend Miriam Villafuerte Martinez as a candidate for this site.
As a student of Instituto Cervantes in Milan I had the pleasure to have Miriam as my two-year course teacher.

Miriam resulted as a driven and well-organized person, who could easily connect and develop good relationships with us students.

Miriam could effectively teach us simple concepts as well as more advanced topics.

She has also got excellent written and verbal communication skills with both students and other teachers.

I noted how well Miriam accomplishes all tasks with great initiative and positive attitude.

I am happy to recommend Miriam and wish her good luck for this application. Should you have any further query on her background or qualifications, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours truly,

Mirella Fraquelli, MD PhD

I could never thank you enough for your passion, dedication and commitment to the learning process in your role as an excellent teacher, Ms. V. Merci beaucoup pour votre travail.

Miriam has been my Spanish teacher for years. When I started I knew no Spanish at all, so we began from the basic notion and then little by little my knowledge of the language grew thanks to her. Miriam is an outstanding teacher and taught me not only the grammar but also the Spanish way of thinking. I work in an administrative office, so I learnt all specific terms connected with administration and credit collection. If I now speak and write Spanish fluently I owe it all to her.

I met Miriam some years ago as I was managing a department of Research and Development in Europe and was looking to upgrade my spanish in order to properly deal and create a team out of the one R&D center which was located near Barcelona. I took one to one classes and could see week after week the progresses in was able to make in reading , understanding and listening but the most stricking has been her ability to understand the psychological context I was in and to build the tuition accordingly. Through her questions and her dedicated attention and patience she was able to build some sense through the langage out of the behaviours of my spanish collegues . More than words, I was learning the spirit of a culture behind the langage and was able to better understand it. I want to advocate her human sense of teaching and this search for completeness in transfering knowledge. I recommend her firmly.

Miriam has taught me spanish at Cervantes Institute in Milano. She helped me a lot to improve my level.and I loved her deep knowledge of the language and her way of teaching.
I strongly recommend her.

When I think how a teacher should be, I think about Miriam.
She is patient and she really enjoys teaching.
During her lessons we had fun and we learned at the same time. She is an inspiration for her students.

Miriam Villafuerte Martín has been my teacher for one year at the Instituto Cervantes in Milan.

Miriam is a professional and multilingual teacher. Thanks to her wide culture, she can transfer her knowledge in an unusual and smart way. Her teaching in not based just on grammar or generic exercises but always in stimulating dialogues on many topics such as politics, art, literature, music. As a result of such creative and interesting lessons, pupils feel totally involved and improve quickly.

I needed to have some bases in French to be able to read and understand medical literature and to write short reports. After two years of hard work with Miriam I could reach my objectives and I could acquire solid knowledge and have the desire to continue studying a difficult language such as French. I have very good memories of my course because Miriam is the kind of teacher that listens, asks, creates enthusiasm and demands a high levels of performance of students. You always want to go back to see what interesting things you will explore and discover each time.

I needed to prepare for a language entry test, level B1, for the faculty of law of a Spanish University and I had no previous experience with Spanish. Thanks to Miriam, I could reach it in 6 months: I successfully passed the exam and got accepted to the university program. But the language teachings went beyond the academic needs, as Miriam focuses a lot on the conversation part, and I could immediately and easily integrate with my Spanish classmates, being prepared on the everyday language too.

I have had the pleasure of having Miriam Villafuerte as a french teacher. Miriam is energetic, enthusiastic and friendly. He makes excellent use of praise; the praise he gives is carefully considered, well placed, and motivating. She is very professional. I strongly recommend Miriam for french teaching.

A very professional and experienced teacher.
It was a pleasure to have active classes with her!

Miriam was an amazing Teacher as she inspired me to study. During our course she helped me develop confidence with my language skills and thanks to her approach and method, today I can walk confidently into most situations requiring me to communicate in French.

I never imagined that I would be able to speak a foreign language.

Thanks Miriam
