Tutor Spotlight

Bolder Languages is proud to welcome our newest member and co-founder, Andrés Hermida. Born in Santo Domingo on December 13th, 1984, Andrés is our first native speaker. Growing up in the Dominican Republic has allowed him to grasp the Spanish language and culture thoroughly. Also having a large portion of his family coming from Barcelona has given him a wider perspective and knowledge of the Spanish culture and language.

Andrés says "moving to the US when I was 10 years old was one of the most exciting things that has happened to me." After living in the US for 6 years he moved back to his home town of Santo Domingo. This really helped him understand cultural differences at a whole new level. Once he moved back to Santo Domingo he was able to get his high-school diploma from El Dominico Americano bilingual high school where he mastered both the Spanish and English language fluently at every level.

Afterwards, he moved over to St Petersburg, Florida where he studied international business, marketing, and management at Eckerd College. After graduating with honors he moved to the beautiful city of Boulder, Colorado where he is currently the president of Bolder Languages, and actively contributing to the success of our organization. With BL he specializes in designing cultural immersion programs, business consulting services, web site translation , travel planning, conversational Spanish, homework assistance, and immigration form assistance.
