With over 1,000 students guided worldwide, I help learners speak confidently and naturally.
I love connecting people with Spanish in a practical, engaging way—whether for travel, work, or personal growth.

If you're actually serious about learning this language, Carlos is your guy. If you put in the work outside the classroom, Carlos will take you to the next level. I personally started with a foundation of about a month's work of studying then started working with Carlos in late December in person. I swear two hours with Carlos is worth 10 hours in the classroom. I have put in the time and at this point about 3 months in with Carlos I can speak fluidly with most people. Nearly everyone comments that my Spanish is very good given the amount of time I've spent. He's very strict but I think for a serious learner it's the right approach. His English is fluent so he can explain and give examples as deep as you want. Thank you Carlos!

I have had several Spanish teachers and I feel I progressed the most with Carlos. His experience is obvious and his classes are engaging and entertaining, with high quality content. Carlos gives you the confidence to start using your Spanish in public and his support has greatly helped me improve. A truly excellent experience, I strongly recommend him!

I had a bunch of different Spanish teachers in different countries when I was trying to learn, but Carlos was without a doubt the best! He kept the classes moving so it never got boring, used some great techniques to get us talking and conversing in Spanish (so because I wanted to communicate something, I remembered it better, instead of simply being obliged to complete the exercise) - and he had plenty of games and other ways of taking me around the city to learn instead of staying in the classroom all day. Really, the classes were super dynamic and fun, and I really looked forward to going to them. Highly, highly recommend Carlos !

When I first arrived in Colombia I had little to no Spanish. Within a few weeks of classes with Carlos I was having full conversations with native speakers. I now live in Spain and thanks to Carlos I am able to engage fully in the local community (albeit with a slight paisa accent 😉). Carlos has a natural ability to make learning the language fun and easy, always coming up with creative ways of teaching. His passion for teaching and the language itself is infectious. Carlos was a great teacher and is now a great friend who I regularly keep in contact with. I highly recommend Carlos to anyone looking to learn Spanish at whatever level.

Carlos is the best of the best! I’ve taken his classes in group settings, one on one, and via Skype. He motivates students using applicable examples and humor. Plus he’s a charismatic person, and made me feel like he genuinely cared about my success. I’d say he is truly one of, if not the best, language teacher I have worked with. In addition to lessons that force you to speak, he uses worksheets/resources to solidify the process. This goes above and beyond from other teachers in Medellin. Highly, highly recommend!

For all those looking for the Spanish teacher who will take them to the next level, Carlos is the man. I had very basic Spanish when I met Carlos and couldn’t hold a conversation but within a month was already having full conversations in Spanish. Carlos will teach you the way that is best for you.

Carlos is a fantastic teacher. I have been learning Spanish for 15+ years and Carlos is among the very best of the *many* teachers I’ve had. His classes are engaging and structured. I’ve taken Carlos’ classes both in person and online and would highly recommend both. He really helped me improve my Spanish. He’s a great teacher for all levels, from complete beginner to proficient (which I am). I’d also recommend him as a Spanish conversation partner. Definitely sign up for his classes!

The best Spanish teacher in Medellin. Personalised program from beginner to advanced. Up to date materials and excellent grammar knowledge both in Spanish as English. Talking about every day topics makes it more fun and helps to practise for both work and personal life. Highly recommended.

Carlos came highly recommended when I was in the process of buying a home in Medellín. I reached out to him on the phone and after a brief conversation, I felt certain that he was exactly the kind of Spanish teacher I was looking for and offered to buy his largest package deal up front. He suggested I wait and take a lesson with him first to see if I liked his style of teaching before I spent all that money. So I met with Carlos that initial session and was really impressed. He had this really unique way of teaching that resonated with me in a way that made learning remarkably fluid. After only one lesson, I was all in and paid him for the 80 hour package. I went on to do a couple more sessions in person and planned to continue over zoom once I returned to the US to prepare for the move. Unfortunately, the purchase of the house fell through and I reached out to Carlos to see if there was any way he could refund me the remaining portion because my move wasn't going to happen. He was so understanding and told me that it was absolutely no problem, then refunded me the money within minutes! I can't say enough kind words about Carlos. He's a fantastic Spanish teacher and genuinely wonderful person! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
