Hi! I'm Gabriela!
Hi! I’m Gabriela, mother, wife and a teacher. I’m passionate about helping intermediate Spanish learners finally feel confident and consistent in their journey.
Over the past 8 years, I’ve had the privilege of teaching hundreds of students from around the world. Through this experience, I noticed a pattern: many learners were getting stuck, losing momentum, or feeling overwhelmed because they didn’t have a clear path forward.
That’s why, in November of last year, I created The Spanish Reading Club — a place designed to give you structure, motivation, and the real support you need to make steady, visible progress.
Here, you’ll find not just stories, but a proven system to build your confidence, improve your pronunciation, and finally enjoy Spanish the way you’ve always wanted.
What do I get?
01
A Structured Reading Plan
Instead of feeling overwhelmed by endless Spanish books, we follow a carefully designed 6 to 8-week reading plan. Each book is broken down into manageable sections—just 5 pages per week—allowing you to read, understand, and absorb the language naturally. This slow and steady approach ensures real progress without burnout.
02
Live Conversation Sessions Every Saturday
Every Saturday, we meet for a live conversation session to bring the language to life! This is your chance to practice speaking, share insights about the story, and participate in guided discussions—all in Spanish. With engaging prompts and a supportive group, you’ll build confidence and fluency much faster than studying alone..
03
Shadowing & Listening Practice
Each week, you’ll get audio recordings of the story read aloud in clear, natural Spanish. Using the shadowing technique, you’ll listen and repeat to improve your pronunciation and rhythm. This method helps you speak more naturally and confidently—without memorizing grammar rules!
04
Engaging & Level-Appropriate Reading
We provide interesting Spanish books and articles tailored to your level, so you can enjoy reading without frustration.
05
Stay Consistent
A structured weekly plan keeps you engaged, so you develop a lasting habit.

Testimonials
Gabriela, the stories are so addicting! I seriously can’t stop reading once I start. Every week I look forward to the new pages, and it’s amazing how much Spanish I’m absorbing without even realizing it. This is the first time learning Spanish feels exciting instead of like a chore. Thank you for making it so enjoyable!

A few months ago I came across EchoEspañol. They advertise a reading challenge for 30 days. I went ahead and signed up for it. It pushed me to read every day in Spanish. I start learning new vocabulary and reviewing familiar vocabulary daily. After 30 days I did a monthly subscription to continue reading. I also enjoy our weekly meeting on Zoom, which allows us to ask questions and practice our conversation. I am considering myself lucky to be able to meet Gabriela. She has a lovely and welcoming way of helping each of us learn Spanish. Learning any language is a journey. I am grateful for being able to find support with Echo Español. Thank you for your help, encouragement, support and a little push that I need to continue learning Spanish every day.

Professor Hanson has done a wonderful job with the story and the weekly Zoom class story discussion. In the Zoom class, I enjoyed talking with Professor Hanson and fellow students. I can go on, but I will wrap this up. I have had a thoroughly enjoyable experience and will happily join the next reading challenge.
