Spanish Teachers

I live in the community of Mezcales. I used to live in the town of Sayulita (20 minutes away from where I currently live) but due to the pandemic I had to move. Both towns are located in the Riviera Nayarita where we are surrounded by wonderful beaches, mountains and jungle.

I am 41 years old. I have a 19 year old son named Inti who is my unconditional love and I am divorced. I have had the opportunity to work as a teacher for several years and it is what I enjoy the most among all the activities I do. I love teaching Spanish because you learn a lot about the language and other languages but above all you learn to respect and empathize with other people who are interested in learning more about this language.

Due to the pandemic, my job had to close their services and I did not make enough income to pay rent. Thanks to the opportunity that I received from Kathy, little by little I have been recovering, paying debts, helping my son and moving forward with other women with whom we form a wonderful team.

Hello, my name is Andrea Morales and I live in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, a touristic city that both foreigners and nationals enjoy. I was born in Mexico City almost 60 years ago. I have also lived in Zitácuaro and Zamora in the state of Michoacán. Before moving to Vallarta, I lived in Guadalajara, Jalisco.

My husband's name is Javier, he works in a hotel. We have a 25 year old son named Ruben who works in cartoon animation.

Most of my life I have worked as a science teacher, teaching physics, chemistry, biology and ecology for junior high and high school. I recently decided to study for a master's degree in Development, Sustainability and Tourism. I also belong to the Scout Movement, which helps children and young people to develop strong character and develop important skills socially and physically.

In my time as a Spanish teacher with this association, I feel very comfortable with the job. It allows me to continue taking care of my elderly parents and also is a new and rewarding challenge to use digital technology to teach.

My name is Mercedes, I am Argentinean, I am 43 years old and I have been living in Mexico for 19 years. I currently live in Sayulita, Nayarit with my three children and my husband. I love living in Mexico, it is a wonderful country.

A little over a year ago I started English classes at the center and thanks to that, I met "Mujeres Movimiento". Through these wonderful women is how I started teaching Spanish, first, in person and now via Zoom because of COVID.

This opportunity, besides helping me economically, allowed me to meet many incredible people. It would have been impossible to work because many places closed and even now that they are open they work part time. I am very grateful to Mujeres Movimiento for trusting me and giving me this opportunity to teach, meet people and travel the world through them.​

My name is Leo, I am 21 years old and I am currently studying Public Accounting. I live with my parents in a small town in Nayarit.

What I enjoy most about teaching Spanish is the opportunity to interact and explore Spanish with students, as well as helping them meet their goals and objectives. Plus it is always fun and interesting to exchange cultural and other points of view that come with learning a new language.

In the midst of the pandemic crisis, when many businesses have closed, having the opportunity to work as a Spanish teacher has been a great relief, as well as very uplifting and enjoyable.​

My name is Laura, I am 56 years old and I live in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. I have two daughters and three dogs that are part of the family.

What I like about Spanish classes is meeting people and helping people from other countries to learn Spanish and to be able to communicate without limits in this world.

This job is a great opportunity to earn income for my family and meet extraordinary people. I am very grateful.​

I was born on March 20, 1970, in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, I am the oldest of 4 siblings. I am 51 years old, married and have two wonderful children (a 23 year old boy and a 13 year old girl).

I live in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. It often feels like paradise as I love to be in contact with nature and to practice yoga. I don't like too much noise in my environment.

My favorite hobby is spending time with my family and friends. I really like teaching Spanish because I can help other people and also make new friends. I am very happy with this job because financially it helps me a lot. I love and enjoy teaching.​

I am Roxana Delfin and I live in Merida, Yucatan with my baby girl and my dog. We are a small and very happy family.

I love teaching Spanish classes. It's a good opportunity to get to know different cultures and learn, apart from admiring the language and considering it one of the most beautiful languages in the world. I love music and working with it. This and Psychology are my greatest passions.

Thanks to this job I can afford to work with my daughter at home, who is still small, without having to take her somewhere. I am very grateful to have met Miss Kathy and this group of women who are empowered and determined to make a difference. They are creating opportunities, awareness and educating people both in the community and in general in the country.

My name is Valeria Ruvalcaba and I am 22 years old. I am from Puerto Vallarta but when I entered college I moved to Guadalajara. Due to the pandemic, I have been traveling between the two cities of Jalisco and trying to pursue my career in audiovisual media and animation.

I am very excited to teach Spanish classes because it gives me the opportunity to share a piece of my life and to be able to give my students such a useful tool as learning a new language and being able to learn from them.

Being able to work in this program gives me the economic support and the freedom I need to be able to continue my studies. I am very happy to be in the program.

My name is Brigi Lopez and I have a degree in special education.

I am from Tepic Nayarit Mexico where I live. I worked for 18 years as a teacher in elementary and kindergarten and now I teach ballet and art classes for children in a cultural center. I like art and that is why I am active and volunteer in workshops and cultural and artistic activities where I am invited to participate.

I have worked with insertion and teaching programs for the learning of English and Spanish, which has been rewarding and a great experience in my life.

Hello, my name is Iveth Castro. I live in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. I love decorating, sewing, music and spending time with family and friends.

Teaching Spanish classes to foreigners as part of the Mujeres Movimiento program has been very rewarding for me for several reasons. It has allowed me to meet people with very different origins, customs and ages. It gives me the satisfaction of seeing how the students are managing to communicate better and better in a language that is not their native language; and it provides me with an additional income that allows me to continue with personal projects.

Hello, my name is Arhely Coronel. I am 28 years old and I live with my parents in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. I have a degree in Preschool Education and I also finished a course to become an English teacher for all ages, but I like teaching English to children the most.

I had the opportunity to start teaching Spanish and I have been teaching Zoom classes for a short time, which I have enjoyed very much. I love that there is no language barrier and to be part of the process to diminish the limits that many times we human beings put on ourselves in communication.

Something about me is that in each of my classes I give my best and I like to receive the same from my students. I like to ensure that my students get all of their questions answered and also to provide enough confidence for them to approach me in case they have them.

My name is Valentina, I am 19 years old. I was born in Mexico but I lived all my life in Buenos Aires, Argentina. 
I currently live in Sayulita, a small but very nice town with a beautiful beach in Mexico. I decided to return to my country to enjoy my family and learn more about the culture.


I work as an English teacher for children. I enjoy my job very much because apart from being good people and showing love and interest, they have a lot of imagination and that amuses me a lot. 
Thanks to the center I have the possibility to work from home, to teach my language and customs, and to meet incredible people from whom I learn a lot.

My name is Lorena Jimenez I am 26 years old (I prefer Lore) I am originally from Puerto Vallarta Jalisco. I have been part of Mujeres Movimiento for three years, a program that has helped me broaden my outlook, educated me and expanded my focus on my personal development.
