Spanish Tutor | Calm, Anxiety-Friendly Spanish for Neurodivergent Learners Calm, neuroinclusive Spanish lessons for learners who feel blocked, anxious, or who process the world differently. My classes are calm, structured, and judgment-free. I work with learners who feel anxious, have had difficult past learning experiences, or identify as neurodivergent — including ADHD, dyslexia, autism, and sensory processing differences. You don't need to feel ready. Pauses and silence are welcome. Your energy on any given day shapes how we work. I hold a Master's degree in research (Highest Honors) and 15+ years of teaching experience. I adapt each lesson to your pace, your needs, and the way your mind processes information — not the other way around. No rushing. No invasive correction. No performance pressure. My priority is that you feel safe, respected, and genuinely supported. We focus on building confidence step by step — through calm conversation, starting from scratch, or wherever you actually are. The trial lesson is simply a chance to see if this space feels right for you. It is not an evaluation. Spanish is learned here without fear, rush, or judgment.

Mayra is a gifted teacher. She listens attentively to her students, and she adapts her teaching to their needs and interests. She has a wide range of interests, so she is able to contribute actively to developing topics of conversations while simultaneously commenting upon the linguistic elements of her students' attempts at communication. I highly recommend her.

Stupendous! Me encanto mi clase con Mayra con muchas ganas. Mayra gave me great suggestions on tips to improve my level of Spanish and also provided book recommendations to aid in my overall Spanish goals. I've taken a lot of classes with a lot of teachers on italki, and without a doubt Mayra is ONE OF THE BEST. I look forward to more classes and highly recommend her to others.

Once we overcame our technical difficulties we had a nice chat. I would like to figure out how to save your feedback, though. Today I took a screen shot, but there must be a better way.

Me dejas hablar, aunque hable en español roto, con tiempos verbales equivocados, infinitivos fuera de lugar, pronombres perdidos, y escribes correcciones aquí y allá para que yo estudie más tarde, pero simplemente tratas de entenderme, y cuando lo haces, me siento eufórico. Para mí, el lenguaje es como magia. Estoy asombrado de poder decir algo en otro idioma, incluso mal, y alguien puede entenderme. Estoy muy agradecida por tu ayuda.
