Gabriela Estrella: Founder/ creator / dreamer and teacher!

I have been a Spanish teacher for more than 15 years… I start teaching as a hobby, but I felt in love with this profession! I love sharing my culture, teaching my language and learning technics. But I also felt in love with all the experiences that I got from my students.

I have a strong background and education in administration, I have been working closely with community projects and my personal growth for the past years. I have worked as a Spanish teacher, manager, marketing coordinator and trainer in different schools in Quito, Montañita, Olón and Switzerland (where I got my administration and tourism master's degree)

Travelling and languages are my passion, so I am always looking for new ways to learn a new language and also technics to teach it! So come Learn Spanish in Ecuador.

For me, education is the key to the future, and that is why we integrate our programs to help the community. I am proudly part of foundations and associations that help people to get a better future, so I am happy to include this part in my own project!
