Hello! I’m Pilar, a native Spanish speaker and experienced educator from Chile.
I hold a Master’s degree in Spanish Language and Culture from Universidad Pontificia de Salamanca, and a Bachelor of Arts in Education with a concentration in ESL for High School from the University of Bio-Bio. I am currently a State-Certified Spanish (FF K-12) and ESL teacher in Michigan, with extensive experience working with both children and adults at various proficiency levels.
In my current role, I teach AP Spanish Language and Culture and have helped many students succeed in earning the Seal of Biliteracy. I am passionate about language instruction and will create personalized lessons to meet your individual goals—whether you need help with basic grammar, conversational fluency, test preparation, or academic writing.
If you are a Spanish speaker needing support in English, I also offer bilingual ESL instruction, designed to help you feel confident and empowered using English in real-life contexts.
I’m available in the evenings and on weekends, and currently offer online lessons only for safety and convenience.
¡Nos vemos pronto!

Helpful Classes and Very fun!

Pilar is an excellent tutor if you are looking to pass any Spanish test. I needed help for a Spanish CLEP test coming up. I haven’t taken Spanish In the last 3 or 4 years and thanks to Pilar I feel as confident as ever. Highly recommended.

Chris, 8 lessons with Pilar

Great personality.

I can't wait to be able to have lessons in person when this C19 is gone. As well as she does on line, I am pretty confident in person will be even more productive.

Excellent tutor

It was my first class today. We talked about grammar and vocabulary. I like her. Polite, kind, patient. She is a native speaker, which greatly helps. I hope to get a very high grade in my quiz tomorrow.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

This was my first lesson with Pilar. She was very friendly, patient and informative when it came to conversational Spanish. We covered basic introductions and verbs around daily conversations. Looking forward to meeting with her again.

Reggie, 1 lesson with Pilar

Experienced and very helpful tutor

We went over two of my writings and Pilar gave me great suggestions to improve my writing, including the use of reflexive verbs and present perfect tenses. We also read together an interview and she monitored the interviewer for me. I would definitely continue to work with her!

Chu, 7 lessons with Pilar

Excellent lesson and can't wait for more!

I had an excellent Spanish lesson with Pilar. I was able to share with her ahead of time my goals for learning Spanish. I hope to become fluent as well as become a medical interpreter. She researched ahead the requirements for me, and customized our first lesson so that she could gauge where I was at regarding my conversation levels, as well as begin the stepping stones for what's needed to pass my interpreter test. I am very pleased with the overall experience and look forward to more lessons with her. Highly recommend her!
