Who we are

Our Story: From Spain to the UK

Hola Spanish Academy was born from a passion for languages and a deep love for Spanish culture. Our founders, both natives of Spain, grew up with a natural curiosity for other cultures, which ultimately led them on a global journey.

In 2012, Natalia first moved to the UK to continue her studies as a linguist, a decision that would eventually bring them both back for good. Over the years, they lived in various parts of the world, always with a consistent focus on learning, teaching and tutoring languages. This hands-on experience in diverse environments solidified their commitment to education.

After returning to the UK, and completed their teaching qualifications, earning both a QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) and PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education). This academic rigor, combined with years of practical experience in schools abroad and across Essex, became the foundation for the Academy.

At Hola Spanish Academy, we believe in a high-quality, communication-based methodology that gets proven results. Our lesson structures are meticulously planned and incorporate the latest educational research to ensure every student not only learns but also has fun. We are dedicated to sharing our culture and everything we've learned along the way, helping you connect with the Spanish language in a meaningful and lasting way.
