Jonathan Malacara

Founder / Director

I'm a language professor with over thirteen years of experience teaching English, Spanish, and French across different schools, from K-12 to university levels. With a master's degree in Applied Linguistics, I am passionate about teaching languages and dedicated to helping develop valuable intercultural and linguistic skills. I find joy in creating effective curricula, training fantastic instructors, and using technology to make learning enjoyable. Watching students grow, succeed, and appreciate diverse cultures is what drives me, and I’m excited to guide you on this rewarding journey of language learning.

Cecilia Borroto

Spanish Projects Director

I’m Cecilia, from Matanzas, Cuba, with a degree in Spanish and Literature and a specialization in Cuban literature. Enthusiastic about the history of the Spanish language, I have written several articles, essays, mini-stories, and poems that reflect my appreciation for our rich heritage. Eager to share my passion for literacy and literature, I am committed to creating new opportunities for students. I believe in the transformative power of education and am excited to help you explore language learning through the lens of literature.

Wendy Nieves

English Projects Director

I’m a dedicated English and Literature teacher from Matanzas, Cuba, with over ten years of experience teaching English in diverse locations such as Hanoi, Vietnam, and Moscow, Russia, along with my home country, Cuba. I completed a 120-hour TESOL certificate and have put this knowledge into practice while teaching students with different backgrounds and a wide age range. Teaching languages is one of my passions and it’s matched by my love for literature and reading. I am thrilled to help you unlock the transformative power of language learning, and be a guide during this exciting journey.
