About Us
Welcome to Mixitup Academy!
Why Learn with Us?
… because YOU need it and WE are passionate about teaching Spanish. And we know how to do it! We know each learner is an individual and here, at Mixitup Academy, we make sure we meet your needs.
No more 'Tarzan language', just GOOD SPANISH!
Maybe it is impossible to believe it but Spanish is for YOU. Talk to us for 10 minutes and we tell you what your LEARNING STYLE is. We will choose the right LEARNING TECHNIQUE for you and you will be able to start speaking some Good Spanish in a few days. After months or years of study, you still can’t make a sentence in Spanish or you’ve never spoken a word in Spanish… And you have to learn the language quickly. The point is that you have learnt nothing GOOD, but a little bit of everything.
- ‘I quit because the teacher was moving too fast’
- ‘I think there was too much grammar for me’
- ‘I don’t like the teacher, he is boring’
- ‘I lost motivation because other students learnt faster than me and I felt frustrated’
- ‘I tried so hard learning Spanish and I still can’t speak with people’
- ‘I have to use ‘sign language’ and I’m getting tired’
This is why many learners do not want to continue studying, lose motivation shortly after they start learning and feel that Spanish it is not for them. And this is so wrong! It makes us sad to know that so many are giving up! Spanish is for everyone. You have just learned the wrong way or you have not found a good native teacher or the right learning technique for you and your learning style. We want to show you that Spanish is for you. No more ‘Tarzan language’, just GOOD SPANISH!
How Do We Do It?
How? Using the right learning tools and the right teaching method for you. All your negative feelings, frustration and fear of failure will disappear when we begin to walk together on the path of learning.

LEARN GOOD SPANISH
Learn GOOD SPANISH with NATIVE TEACHERS
Today it's very common to learn a new language using Apps. These applications teach you various Spanish words and sentences from different countries, especially from Latin America, and learners get confused when they start speaking and nobody understands them. Do not worry, our Native Teachers teach you GOOD SPANISH!

WHAT IS IT THAT OUR STUDENTS VALUE MOST?
COMMITMENT
Helping people to learn a new language involves being dedicated to teaching and coaching. It's our promise to give you our time, active listening, a wide professional and life experience, positive energy, passion, attention, empathy and continuous motivation. We also teach our students about the benefits of learning and how to focus and fully commit to the learning process. Everyone feels part of a system that works. Games, conversations, videos, audios, writing and various other tasks are designed for our students to learn Spanish as FAST as possible.
COMPANIONSHIP
Have you ever experienced the enjoyment of being with someone that listens to you, understands you or… have spent time with someone that you like? It's a cozy feeling, it's closeness, familiarity and a deep connection that we have with our students after they start learning with us. Paula said once: 'I love Spanish because I like you'. We are our students' friends and that's why sometimes you can see us together in a Spanish restaurant having a nice meal and chatting about… it doesn't matter, really! It's all about sharing quality time together and having nice, relaxed classes.
PATIENCE
Have you ever had a teacher who inspired you to go above and beyond? One teacher who took their time to make sure each of his/her students are one the right track? Well, 'patience is a virtue'. Same questions and problems over and over again? Don't worry… we are all in a learning process and repetition leads to mastery. Our learners are never forgotten after the lesson or the course finished. We have a permanent communication between classes because we care about all of you.
TRUSTWORTHINESS & PUNCTUALITY
You come to study with us and you learn to embrace the Spanish culture. From TAPAS culture to TIME MANAGEMENT, Spain is unique. Are Spanish people always late at work, everyone keeps asking… Well, no! This stereotype is not true in our case, we make our reputation, we don't break it! We teach our learners punctuality, as a way of respect and trustworthiness.
