Cristina Ramos
Spanish Language instructor

Founder of SevillaEle, classroom-free teacher & rebel of real-life Spanish

Cristina is the heart behind SevillaEle — sometimes a bit wild, always full of passion. She doesn’t teach in a traditional classroom. Instead, her “classrooms” are cafés, plazas, local markets, and even flamenco stages — places where Spanish is lived, not just studied.

If you’ve ever dreamed of ordering coffee without breaking into a sweat, or finally following the juicy gossip at a family lunch without getting lost, she’s your guide.

After years of teaching Spanish the conventional way, Cristina had a moment of clarity: no more dusty textbooks and lifeless subjunctives. That’s when SevillaEle was born — a vibrant blend of lessons, lived experiences, art, croquetas, wine, and a whole lot of laughter.

She helps her students navigate real-world Spanish — from surviving a parent-teacher meeting to holding their own at a spirited dinner with Sevillian in-laws.

Cristina believes in bold, imperfect, and powerful Spanish — in learning with your gut and through meaningful human connection. She works with families, brave mamas, students tired of sounding robotic, and anyone with a curious heart ready to truly integrate into Spanish life.

And if you spot her in Seville with her daughter, her dog, and a notebook full of unruly ideas, don’t hesitate to say hello.

Because with Cristina, it’s never just about Spanish.
It’s about living fully together.
