When she’s not teaching, María enjoys The Traitors, a good scone and a proper pint — proof of her strong connection to the UK.
I am a Spanish Teacher for foreigners and I also teach English to little kids.
I became a teacher for a very simple reason – I want to make a difference. I also have experience in Tourism world (Tourism Degree) where I feel more connected to people from many different countries. It was my pleasure to do my Masters Internship in the University of Liverpool, January- March 2018 (Master in Linguistics Applied to the Teaching of Spanish as a Foreign Language) During that time I worked with Hola People. Besides, I lived and worked in Liverpool three years during 2012-2014. I love the city and the UK, so I feel quite connected to this culture.
I am also a certified examinator teacher for DELE exam, so if you want to take, just let me know!


María also offers specific courses related to how to apply the Spanish language to El Camino de Santiago (The Way of Saint James)


“I have now been studying with Maria for over a year and I am very pleased with the progress I have made, and very glad I started studying with her. Maria uses a wide range of tools and resources, including many resources she has created herself. My confidence in speaking Spanish has greatly improved since I have been studying with her. Maria is really friendly and her classes are so fun and chatty- I always look forward to my lessons. Based on my experience, I have recommended her to so many people. My mum (who was a complete beginner) is now also studying with Maria and she also really enjoys the classes as well. I would definitely recommend Maria’s classes to anyone who is interested in improving their Spanish, no matter what your level. She is a very experienced, friendly and creative teacher, and her classes are fantastic. ” — Zoë Morrison-Griffiths (María’s student)
“I found my Spanish teacher, Maria, through the Hola people website. Maria is very good and lessons are fun, affordable and very informative. I would recommend Maria to anyone who wishes to learn Spanish.” — Glyn Harris (María’s student)
“How well can language lessons function when they have to be online? I have been having Spanish lessons with María for a few weeks using Skype and it is working very well. We can see and hear each other and she can show me passages to read. María speaks in Spanish the majority of the time but so clearly (and not too fast) that I can understand most of what she says. Her lessons and the accompanying homework cover a wide variety of topics using a range of methods so the experience is always interesting and fun. Highly recommended. ¡Muchas gracias, María!” — Archie McKerrell (María’s student)

Name: James (Liverpool, United Kingdom), August 2024
Mariana is very patient and friendly. Previously I struggled with grammar, and after only a short time with Mariana I grew much more confident.
I would absolutely recommend it!

Name: Zoë Morrison-Griffiths (Liverpool, United Kingdom), March 2019 – December 2021
I studied Spanish at university, graduating in 2015, but since graduation, my Spanish had gotten very rusty. I was looking for a way to keep up my Spanish and to improve my confidence, especially with my speaking skills.
I attended a lecture that Maria was giving in Liverpool about the Camino de Santiago, where she also gave a short Spanish language class. I was very impressed with her lesson and also found her accent to be very clear and understandable, so I signed up for one-to-one lessons over Skype.
I have now been studying with Maria for over a year and I am very pleased with the progress I have made, and very glad I started studying with her.
In our first lesson, Maria spent a great deal of time asking me questions about my interests and what I wanted from the classes, and she then tailored our lessons appropriately. I am continually impressed by the level of organisation that goes into her classes – Maria sends me an email after every lesson covering what we have done, and recaps any new vocabulary that I have learnt the following week.
Maria uses a wide range of tools and resources, including many resources she has created herself. As Maria knows I am interested in walking the Camino de Santiago in the future, Maria has taken me through a course she has created, which teaches me in more depth about the region and useful information about the Camino.
My confidence in speaking Spanish has greatly improved since I have been studying with her. Maria is really friendly and her classes are so fun and chatty- I always look forward to my lessons. Based on my experience, I have recommended her to so many people. My mum (who was a complete beginner) is now also studying with Maria and she also really enjoys the classes as well.
I would definitely recommend Maria’s classes to anyone who is interested in improving their Spanish, no matter what your level. She is a very experienced, friendly and creative teacher, and her classes are fantastic.
