Hi again to everyone, it's been a long time outside. I've never been a good poster, but it has already been some years reading the forums. I'm so thankful with the Shroomery Community for the time you spend to teach others and create a knowledge center as this site is.
I've cultivated a lot since I reached the forums. Many cubensis, and a couple of exotics too. I've tried to learn as much as I've been able to.
However, until I reached this forums, I found very difficult to find good and updated information about the cultivation process. That's why I started to search information in my own language, Spanish.
After some time reading some old forums, I reached some Portuguese channel on YouTube, which gave me the very basics, and a simple PFTek instructions. Then I find myself prepared to try for the first time, and I was successful. I didn't broke any records, but I had an exit that encouraged me to look somewhere else to improve my skills.
But I couldn't find any other good source of information until I started to search with my poor English and I reached Shroomery. Sadly, lots of people don't have a poor Portuguese neither English, and they have to spend dozens of hours until they reach a very basic cultivation level.
So that's why I find myself comfortable enough to start some tutorials in Spanish, similar to the Portuguese ones that introduced me to the hobby. I don't pretend to give a master course, as I'm not close to be an expert. Just a starting point where people can start with some basic concepts clear.
I'm posting here to ask for advice and may be for someone who wouldn't mind to lend some graphic material about the cultivation process. I'd love to have revision on my work too, as perhaps I have experience I'm not and expert and for sure I'll make some mistakes.
I'll love to read you here or on MDs. Thank you all again!

Cool! I don’t have anything specifically to give you but I’m curious if you used google translate and if it worked well for you?
Open a web browser and go to translate.google.com. You don't need a Google account to access it, because it's free to all. In the text box on the left, type in the entire URL (including the http://) of the website you want to view. On the right, choose the language you want to see the website in.

Hi! Thanks for answering 
Of course, Google Translator is so useful. I have a basic english, and it was much worse when I started, so I used it when some post were too difficult or I didn't understand some words.
But, still with a basic english level, and trying to compare the translation with the original post, sometimes it's really difficult to understand some instructions. The translator does literal translations, and it fails. Also, post in the forums have jokes, slang and "not academic" expressions that make the translator give complete wrong sentences, with no sense at all.
I could manage it, sometimes asking, but I know that there are some people who can't. That's why I started this hehe

I Would Think The Best Way To Teach Someone Who Doesn't Speak English, How To Grow Mushrooms, Would Be Less Words & More Pictures/Videos.
Detailed Step By Step Pictures Or A Detailed Video That One Can Understand Without Needing To Speak/Understand English.

I have found in my travels that if you utilize key words with each other and drop out extra words its easier to get things across.
If you can translate phrases like grain, grain spawn, liquid culture, agar plates, and give a simple action with combined words. If you can demonstrate what these things are enough to which the student understands, you might have a easier time teaching.
For example: "Inject liquid culture into grain" > "injetar cultura líquida no grão."
I myself have had moving to a decent part of Mexico from the USA on the back of my mind, and had an idea of starting up a mushroom farm and employing the locals. So I have been trying to catch up on Spanish.
