Meet Our Founder, Susana and her Team
Born and raised in Colombia, Susana, Natalia and Eloisa were language learners from the start. As Spanish native speakers who learned English growing up, the joys, challenges, glories, and struggles of language learning is something they are all too familiar with. And yet: it became a passion which they would follow for years.
Besides having completed her Bachelor’s and Master’s in Foreign Language Teaching, Susana has built her language teaching experience for over 12 years. Alongside being a language educator, Susana has experience in language programs management and translation services. Her goal is to connect professional and warm instructors with people that need help or are eager to learn Spanish. An ever-loving teacher to connect with people, Susana founded Clever Language Learning & Services in 2019.
