Ibon has been instrumental in taking my Spanish from a baseline level of conversational proficiency to a level of confidence I could have never attained through self-study alone. He curtails the curriculum to whatever learning method resonates with you (i.e. podcasts, books, grammar exercises, etc) and pushes you to achieve your greatest potential week by week. If you’re looking to push yourself beyond what you can attain with traditional learning apps, I’d highly recommend Ibon’s language coaching service.

I have had the honour to have around 60 classes with Ibon. Of which each and every one has been very educational and insightful. I’ve had a lot of Spanish classes before this, all of which were extracurricular, and I can say with confidence that the classes given by Ibon have been the best so far. He is very dedicated and takes his students serious, puts a lot of time into their progress, and makes sure they still have fun while learning. Ibon speaks good English, Spanish, and even some French, which also helps when having to explain the grammar. All I can tell you in the end is that if you are looking for value for your money, Ibon is your guy to go to. Thank you Ibon.

Ibon is a fantastic teacher with a clear concept, who always finds time and means to tailor his content to your situation (hobbies, vacation etc.). He also adapts the learning tools to your preferences, be it reading, hearing, vocabulary learning etc. Apart from that Ibon is very flexible when daily business collides with the fixed Spanish lessons; he responds fast and there has never been a problem in finding alternative time spots. If I would be able to spend a little more time in my “homework” I would have improved more than I already did. You really get a lot out of it. To sum it up: I can recommend Ibon in the strongest way possible and I am 100% certain that you will reach your Spanish goals with him.

After previously studying and working in Spain, I passed my DELE C1 examination back in November 2017. Prior to finding Ibon I had been taking Spanish classes via other online options, but they were generally loosely based conversation classes and I wasn’t sure I was really getting the feedback that I needed to further improve my Spanish. By accident or design, Ibon reached out to me via Linked In 2021, introduced me to the world of ‘Speak Spanish Claro’, and I have been having regular weekly classes with Ibon for about 18 months. My situation is probably a bit unusual, in that while I could speak with some fluency and maintain a conversation at a reasonably high level, I still made a lot of basic grammatical errors and also needed to widen my vocabulary and enrich my overall expressive capability in Spanish. While I’ve had some group classes, and many conversational classes in Spanish, I’ve never really had a language “coach” as such, which what I believe Ibon brings to the language learning experience. He has been able to focus in on my consistent grammatical weak points, guiding me to improvement either in class or via extra homework exercises. Ibon puts a lot emphasis on picking up on spoken or written errors – no matter how small – to push me to be the best that I can be with my Spanish. Sometimes that can be challenging, but necessary I feel to take my Spanish to the highest levels. Ibon takes great care and pride in helping me understand the full richness of the Spanish language, so that I can express myself with clarity and precision. With his gregarious and warm nature, allied to his natural enthusiasm for teaching, he keeps me coming back for more, and I’m sure that will be what you find too…

I took a Spanish course with Ibon ahead of moving to Spain for a work assignment. With his structured approach to teaching, progress tracking and adaptability to my specific needs Ibon managed to make me able to work in Spanish in merely 2 months time (I did have a bit of a base before starting but it was rather nonexistent). If you are motivated to lear Spanish and have a specific objective in mind – Ibon will certainly help you with achieving your goals in the best possible manner. Certainly one of the best tutoring experiences I’ve ever had. Thank you, Ibon!

I had the pleasure of meeting Ibon for a virtual Spanish course in 2021. I did a private conversational Spanish course with the aim to enrich my business communication skills and further practice my grammar knowledge on an advanced level. We met once a week for several months. I really enjoyed the lessons with Ibon as they were interactive and he helped me to continuously improve. I can 100% recommend the Spanish courses with Ibon.

I had the chance to take several classes of Spanish with Ibon. Initially, I was just looking for online classes to suit my personal and professional schedule so honestly, I didn’t have much expectations regarding the content or the method. I must say that I was really impressed from the first minutes. Ibon has a very powerful and mostly practical method, you can clearly sense several years of experience with international students. Following a discussion or an exercise, he will highlight and explain the errors made in a visual way that sticks to your mind rapidly. I also really like that his classes are not classically following a fixed order or a book. There are fully customized to your (business/personal) needs and goals but also to your weaknesses and areas of improvements that he will catch immediately. The topics covered in one class are quite various as well as the homework’s (quality online exercises, best practices, key worksheets, summaries, books, audio, etc.). The classes (1 hour/class in my case) are dense of work and information, you would really get for “your money”. Still, Ibon stays flexible and will adapt the rhythm and the homework depending on your week schedule (busy/calm). Last but definitely not least. You can clearly feel that Ibon takes his mission very seriously, with lots of passion, which makes the classes and interactions even more remarkable. If you want to take your Spanish to the next level, I definitely recommend working with Ibon!

I came to Hablarás Claro with a very clear objective, and with a lot at stake. As a Business Development Manager, it was essential for me to be able to contact and develop business relationships in Spanish-speaking markets. For this I needed to have a level of Spanish to match my needs. And it was a success. Ibon perfectly understood the client’s expectations and focused on the essentials to help me achieve my goals.
