Hola, soy Vanessa Gancedo

I’m a qualified Spanish teacher and a certified Neurolanguage Coach®.

My training has given me powerful tools to use neuroscience and coaching strategies to make your learning experience more brain-friendly and help you overcome anxiety or mental blocks.

I’ve also been an expat myself, living in England for more than 16 years, often finding myself as the only non-native speaker in courses, talks or retreats. This allowed me to deeply connect with locals and fully immerse myself in the experience. It also nurtured that part of my «English» identity with courage and a spirit of adventure

Don’t let shame or anxiety hold you back from embracing The Spanish Side of You and exploring where it can take you.

Ready to begin this journey together?

What will we be doing?

We’ll meet online via Zoom for 60 minutes on the third Sunday of each month at 10:00 AM Spanish time. You’re welcome to join every workshop or attend whenever you can, all completely FREE.

We will engage in conversations with other female native speakers to explore different accents and gain cultural insights from various regions of Spain. This will enhance your understanding of the culture and help you build deeper connections.

We will speak Spanish while creating collages, vision boards, or other simple creative activities. No special creative skills are needed. Just bring paper, a pair of scissors, magazines, coloured marker pens, and an open mind.

Our conversations will explore various important aspects of life, including well-being, relationships, friendship, future goals, fulfilment, and personal growth. In other words, we will focus on the topics that truly matter to you.
