I love teaching and delivering results to those seeking to learn another language or who need to pass the USCIS citizenship exam. My teaching experience in Spanish, English as a Second Language, and Citizenship spans over 16 years. I employ a practical, fun, hands-on approach so each student can relate to the subject matter.

Regarding the Spanish language, I hold a B.A. in Spanish, have worked with local colleges and schools, and am thoroughly familiar with the Spanish culture. I lived in Spain for many years and have lived and traveled in Latin America as well.

I specialize in working with students, children and adults who want to become proficient. This includes elementary through college students (including IB). or adults pursuing conversational Spanish. Homeschoolers have a great time learning the basics with fun activities and getting full immersion from home.

For those of you whose native language is not English, if you wish to improve your conversational skills, grammar, reading or written English, I will help reach your goals. For over 16 years, here and abroad, I have been teaching all levels of the English language at local universities, companies (corporate training) and in public schools, and formerly directed a university English as a Second or Other Language (ESOL) program before moving abroad. With my extensive training, I will be able to quickly assess your current level and help you gain confidence and reach your goals.

If you are preparing for your USCIS exams, I will be help you learn where you are deficient for your interview or other parts of the exam (reading, writing, speaking, comprehension or civics) and train you in those areas so that you can quickly improve and pass the exam. Additionally, I will provide you with mock interviews so that you will be confident going into your interview and prepared to defend your application.

Certified and holding a B.A. in Spanish, I teach adults, teens and children ALL levels of Spanish.

Do you need help with test preparation or are you homeschooling your child? If you need to become fluent for professional purposes or simply want to chat with others here or while traveling, I will provide you with a strong foundation and confidence. I truly enjoy teaching and understand that each student has a different learning style. I will patiently take the time to focus on how a student learns best so that lessons are successful.

USCIS

USCIS

I have significant experience successfully preparing adults who wish to become naturalized American citizens for the USCIS written and oral tests. This encompasses the written exam comprised of 100 key questions on the most salient aspects of American history and civics and preparation for the oral interview including questions posed regarding their N-400 application. For those students with limited English skills, my experience of over 16 years of teaching ESOL has provided me with ability to assist them in improving their English language skills to the point where they can not only understand the specific questions asked in the oral interview and the written test but respond in an appropriate manner in order to pass with confidence!

Many thanks from my husband and me

Two months ago, my husband failed an interview for American citizenship in two parts. Firstly, on the written test, and secondly, on the understanding of English. We had only 2 months to improve his English and to prepare for the second interview. We were very lucky to meet with Rose Romero. It was a great success to find such a great really caring teacher. Rose turned out to be a professional of the highest level and a very pleasant person to communicate with. Mike worked with Rose 3 times a week for 2 months. Each lesson lasted for 1 hour. Rose gave Mike homework, which he prepared for each lesson. In addition, he studied English every day and night for 6-8 hours because this was Mike's last chance. As a result of our great joint work with Rose, on July 27 of this year, Mike successfully passed his second interview for American citizenship. Rose and Mike worked out in detail most of the vocabulary, grammar, questions and definitions to be ready for the second interview. Moreover, very important outcome is that Rose helped Mike to focus on his interview skills but also to improve his confidence level in communication in English. Thank you so much, Rose, for your help in preparing for the interview. Mike wouldn't have been able to pass it without you. We strongly recommend anyone who needs help with mastering English and be ready for the US citizenship interview to work with a real professional and expert Rose Romero.

Great Spanish Tutor!

My teenage daughter was looking for a Spanish tutor to teach her beginning Spanish and she couldn’t be happier to have found Rose. Rose is very friendly, kind, and well-prepared to work with my daughter. In addition, Rose provides great materials for my daughter to practice at home, which helps reinforce what she learns in sessions. Rose is a wonderful teacher, I strongly recommend her.

✨ Thanks to Rose, I Achieved My Citizenship in 2025! 🇺🇸

On February 25, 2025, I had my citizenship exam, and even though my English is not the best, I passed thanks to the incredible preparation provided by my teacher, Rose. I contacted her on February 12, and in just 12 days, she designed an effective and personalized study plan. Her real-time interview simulations were key to understanding the entire process and feeling confident on exam day. Rose not only gave me the necessary tools but also had the patience and the perfect methodology to help me achieve my goal. Thank you endlessly, Rose! 🙌🇺🇸

A very unique way to do the student memorize

Rose is helping me with the U.S. citizenship test for permanent residency. Rose makes me feel comfortable, capable and confident about the exam. In addition to reinforcing memory techniques, she has helped me build a deeper appreciation of the test subjects by diving into the history and background that led to the U.S. Constitution and its continued development.

Passed!

We had came to Wyzant to find a tutor to assist with US Citizenship prep for the N400 interview. We were very pleased to find lots of highly qualified tutors to choose from. We personally chose Rose R based on previews reviews, the amount of reviews and fast response time (all things that are very important to us. Messaged Rose on a Saturday evening, later at night around 9-10pm and had a response within minutes! HUGE! Was not expecting to get a response until sometime Sunday given it was the weekend and late. Rose confirmed what we were trying to accomplish and provided times to meet. We ended up meeting that following Monday and was money well spent. She is very knowledgeable, has a ton of experience with unique cases and backgrounds. Even after our call was kind enough to send over prep materials and just wanted to have peace of mind that we were prepped and felt comfortable. Just going through a mock interview with her was invaluable and chat through all the possibilities that could come up. She is extremely genuine and just wants the absolute best for her clients.

US Citizenship Preparation Tutoring

Rose is helping in the preparation of my mom for citizenship interview. She is very well organized, has all the relevant material and is very systematic in her approach to the prep work. My mom has limited English fluency and Rose is very effective in communicating with my mom and teaching her the necessary information.

Excellent pathway to citizenship tutor!

My lesson with Rose R. was extremely helpful. She helped with Speaking and Listening portions of the citizenship test. I had several trips outside of the USA, and Rose helped me to explain the reason for my trips in a confident manner. She boosted my confidence and encouraged me to practice with additional materials provided by her. I had my interview this week and my case was recommended for approval. I am extremely thankful for Rose's advice.
