Discover the expert behind Aprendos and the mission to transform language learning.
Welcome to Aprendos!
Thank you for exploring Aprendos! I'm thrilled you're here and excited about the potential Aprendos has to help you reach your language learning goals. My passion lies in helping language learners like you achieve real-world fluency through innovative, research-backed methods.
My journey in language education began in Argentina, where I earned my BA in English Teaching, and taught English to a diverse group of learners, laying the foundations in practical classroom methodologies. This led me to The University of Montana, where I completed my MA in Linguistics, while teaching English to international students. My academic path culminated at the University of California, San Diego, where I earned my PhD in Linguistics, focusing on quantitative and data-driven language analysis, while I also expanded my teaching experience in Spanish and Linguistics. After my PhD, I joined Newcastle University, where I taught Spanish and Linguistics at the School of Modern Languages.
This educational journey has taken me across four continents, from teaching in the vibrant classrooms of Argentina to conducting rigorous research at prestigious universities in the USA, UK, and Norway. These diverse experiences have given me unique insights into the challenges and breakthroughs that language learners experience across different cultures and learning environments.
Our Mission: Transforming Language Learning
Aprendos represents the convergence of my life's work: two decades of classroom teaching, rigorous academic research, and applied AI expertise. This combination has allowed me to create a learning platform built on proven methods from cognitive science, linguistics, and learning research. It's a fully-integrated ecosystem where every component strengthens your grammar, vocabulary, and fluency.
What sets us apart is our commitment to evidence- and topic-based methods that actually work. Every podcast episode, exercise, and feature is designed with a deep understanding of how the brain processes and learns language and what techniques lead to lasting fluency. Our topic-based approach ensures that you never see a sentence or a word out of context, providing you with a richer and more meaningful learning experience.
