About this user
We are a family-run business, committed to making Spanish accessible to all. Both Martin and I have been, and continue to be, language learners and have experimented with different learning methodologies. We also believe that Spanish has much to offer, be it for business, academia or pleasure.
We are also passionate about the Spanish/Latin American culture. As a child, back in Venezuela, I watched the "Marisol" movies from Spain, sang the Cri-Cri nursery rhymes from Mexico and read about Argentinean daily life in the Mafalda comics. For me, Spanish opened the door to a wealth of culture and information and to an international community, with no parallels in today's world.
At Mi Mundo our job is to help you be part of this special community, no matter how old or how busy you are. Through our Spanish services, we give you the opportunity to communicate with people from 21 countries: to do business with them, share knowledge with them, and enjoy their warmth, vitality and passion. And we do it in an effective, efficient and stimulating way.
As a member, you will learn Spanish through an eclectic methodology, which takes the best from communicational, task-based, accelerated learning and other methods. You will also have access to experienced native tutors, friendly native speaking buddies, professional translators and appealing products. We look forward to welcoming you into the Mi Mundo family and helping you sail smoothly during your Spanish language journey.
¡Saludos!
