My name is Pedro Fernández Fanjul, the author of the Spanish for Beginners Podcast series. I have been teaching Spanish and Latin for more than 30 years in three different countries.

I was born in Asturias, Spain. At university I studied Classical Languages and Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language. After teaching several years in Spain, in 1999 I moved to the USA where I taught Spanish and Latin. In 2014 I moved to Austria where I have my own teaching company.

After having taught thousands of students, I am convinced that every person can learn and be fluent in a foreign language. It takes some effort, but the reward is enormous.
