About Me
Welcome to Spanish Planet School!
¡Hola! My name is Victoria, and I was born in a beautiful city in Spain, Salamanca. I lived there for 26 years and studied Psychology and English Teaching. For many years I worked in Human Resources but by fate, a few years ago, I focused on teaching Spanish.
I have been trained as an ELE teacher (Spanish as a second language) at the Instituto Cervantes in Utrecht and as a DELE examiner for A, B and C levels. I have been living in Haarlem since 2020, a wonderful place between magical Amsterdam and the vast North Sea. Here I work as a Spanish teacher for children and adults.
I am an optimistic and resilient person; I love to be surrounded by people and I enjoy everything I do. I never stop learning and get excited about little things. In my free time, I love to spend time with my family and love reading and traveling as well.
