Spanish with Salsa was born from a simple belief: language has the power to connect people, cultures, and perspectives. Get to know the story, the people, and the purpose behind every lesson.
Our mission is to help people connect with the Spanish-speaking world through language, culture, and meaningful human connections.
Our mission is to help people connect with the Spanish-speaking world through language, culture, and meaningful human connections.
These values guide every lesson, every conversation, and every connection we help our students build — they are the heart of what makes Spanish with Salsa more than just a language school.
We believe language learning is ultimately about people. We create opportunities for meaningful connections with individuals, cultures, and communities across the Spanish-speaking world.
Language and culture are inseparable. We encourage curiosity, empathy, and a deeper appreciation for the diverse traditions, perspectives, and experiences that shape Hispanic cultures.
We help students develop the confidence to express themselves naturally and communicate in real-life situations. Every conversation is a step toward greater independence and self-belief.
Every learner has a unique story, goal, and learning style. We personalize the learning experience to support each student's individual journey and growth.
Learning a language is more than acquiring a skill; it is a journey of personal development. We embrace curiosity, perseverance, and the belief that growth continues throughout life.
We welcome learners of all ages, cultures, backgrounds, and experiences. We foster a supportive environment built on respect, empathy, openness, and mutual understanding.

Spanish with Salsa was founded on August 10, 2020, by Carol Haro, a language educator who discovered — first in the classroom, then aboard international cruise ships — that learning a language is never just about words, but about people. The name itself comes from her nickname, "Salsa," and reflects the energy, warmth, and rhythm she loves about Hispanic cultures.
Tired of learning experiences that focus only on rules and textbooks, Carol built Spanish with Salsa around real conversation and cultural connection. What began as online lessons during the pandemic has grown into a space where students learn Spanish in a way that feels personal, meaningful, and alive — because speaking differently is only part of the journey; the rest is connecting more deeply with people and new ways of seeing the world.
Every goal we set is guided by the same purpose: helping more people around the world discover Spanish as a living bridge to new connections, cultures, and possibilities.
Build a welcoming international community connected through language and culture.
Help students communicate naturally and build real connections in Spanish.
Grow a diverse ecosystem: private lessons, group programs, digital resources, and future immersion experiences.
Foster curiosity and appreciation for the richness of Hispanic cultures.
Build a scalable platform without losing our personalized approach.
Help students grow not just as Spanish speakers, but as confident, culturally aware individuals.
Real experiences from learners who are building confidence, connecting with others, and experiencing Spanish beyond the classroom.
Just had another private group class with my husband and I and always have a great time. It is full of laughter and super fun way to practice together. She has been my teacher now for almost a year. She is patient, VERY professional and also friendly and down-to-earth as well. I love EVERY single moment I get to spend with her, whether in private lessons or in a group with my husband too!!!

Is an absolutely incredible teacher! My 6.5 year old son really enjoyed the lesson! My wife and I are both former educators, and we both speak Spanish, but she is next level. She made the whole lesson super fun with a lot of different forms of media and was good at pushing our son to speak in the target language.

She is an outstanding teacher. Our 30-minute sessions feel like catching up with a friend, never awkward, and she always knows when to jump in with help or push me a bit harder. Her lessons are creative and tied to what's actually happening in the world right now, like recent vocabulary built around the World Cup. What stands out most is how well she reads your skill level and tailors lessons to your interests and where you actually need growth. She genuinely cares about your progress. Highest possible recommendation. Looking forward to many more classes with her.

My daughter has been taking Spanish lessons since she was nine years old. I was able to find a way to engage a child who did not know a single word in Spanish, and explain grammar and vocabulary to her in a way she will understand. Their lessons are entirely in Spanish, and the teacher always sends materials that were used in class for review. We are very pleased with how the classes are going and Spanish language development. Definitely recommend!

I've been taking lessons for several months now, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. Every lesson is engaging, well-structured, and enjoyable. We usually start with conversation practice, which has really improved my speaking and listening. The teacher always brings interesting topics and shows genuine interest in what I have to say, making our conversations natural and motivating. I always look forward to our classes and couldn't ask for a better teacher.

Shes is the best! She is kind, patient, attentive, and organized. There is a reason that she is the regular Spanish teacher for both my children and me. Each lesson is always engaging and fruitful and we always leave better than before.

She has great practical conversations I can follow and makes things interesting. She never gets frustrated or mad when I ask what the same word means many times when I forget. She's a great teacher!
