What Our Students Say They Love About Our Native Spanish Tutors
SpanishBlackbelt is perfect for people who really want to learn Spanish but haven't had much success before. It's also great for those who need Spanish for traveling or work, for new students who want to learn but don't know where to start, for people who want practice that fits their needs, for those who forgot a lot since they last learned Spanish somewhere else, and for people who can read and write Spanish but need help speaking it better.
These testimonials attest to this...

''I have always been pleased with the tutors at Spanish Blackbelt. However, Mariella simply has been the best. She has come to each session well prepared. Thus even if I have not been as well prepared we were able to do substantive work and each session was well done.

''Paola responded to our specific request to concentrate on the demands of an upcoming trip to Peru for a family wedding.
