Tutor Bio
Hola me llamo Danny. ¿Qué tal?
I was born and raised in Madrid, Spain, by an American mother and a Spanish father.
After a 3-year stop in Barcelona, I spent my senior year of high school in Mendocino, California. I then returned to Madrid to proceed with my schooling. I lived in Los Angeles, California, for 9 years pursuing a career in acting, and that´s where I fell in love with teaching. I live back in Madrid now.
I have a BA Degree in Communication and an AA degree in Dramatic Arts. While in college, I taught English.
Besides teaching, my interests revolve around Film and TV, guitar, and personal development.
Degrees and Certificates
- Degrees: Bachelors in Communication and minor in Theatre studies
Personal Interests
Acting, Drama, Playing musical instruments, Reading, Watching movies, Basketball, Comedy

What is your favorite word in your language and why?
Eclético. I love the sound. I love the meaning. I relate to it very much :)
-
What is your favorite dish from your hometown? If you no longer live there is there a good local restaurant that serves it?
You can't beat Pulpo a la Gallega :) Oreja is surprisingly good, and you can't go wrong with a good Paella. In the summer nothing refreshes you better than tinto de verano.
-
Besides the languages you teach, do you speak or study any other languages?
I used to know Catalán because I lived near Barcelona for 3 years as a kid but I hardly use it anymore so I can understand it but don't speak much of it. I have a casual understanding and interest in German and Italian as well.
-
What are your interests outside of teaching at Strommen?
Acting, Improv, playing guitar, going to the gym, reading, watching soccer, (Real Madrid of course) following the NBA... I am a big movie nerd as you can imagine :)
-
What do you consider your hometown? Why do you love it?
Madrid. I love how well-connected it is. You can get by perfectly in most of the city without owning a car. People talk about the New York or London subway but in my experience, nothing beats Madrid when it comes to that.
