''Spoke Spanish 95% of the time.'' Dec 02 2007 ''Mariella is the ultimate instructor. She makes learning, studying and doing the homework an enjoyable process. She is demanding in a positive way. She listens to pronounciations, corrects speech and grammar patterns but in a way that is postive and encouraging. I explained to her about my hearing problem that is in part caused by being new to language learning. I am an older nontradiontal student. From the moment I [*] foot in her classroom it was all Spanish all the time. I need that and even though I told her my tiny brain hurt at the end of the class, she provided great brain exercises for language acquisition. She loves what she is doing, is interested in her students, what they do, how they use the Spanish, etc. We discussed political issues, poverty, wages, history, art, music. Wow, she is amazing. I can't wait until the end of January to start again.'' Nov 30 2007 ''She (Mariella)prepared well, had humor, understood my reasons for taking her class. She clearly explained the concepts and the grammar.'' Nov 30 2007 ''Make learning Spanish easy and fun and not a chore.'' Nov 23 2007 ''She spoke slowly enough for me to understand her.'' Nov 15 2007 ''Tutor was attentive to my needs and answered my questions well.'' Oct 31 2007 ''never had spanish so can`t compare teacher. she stayed in spanish format. I probably should of studied more to get more from course. Probably would of benefited if stayed w/ other member of group, but might of held them back. I think following the book more closely would of been better, although again my study habits were not great. She was very encouraging and after our sessions I felt that I knew more than I realized. Overall I think she is a good teacher and would be happy to take another class w/her'' Oct 31 2007 ''She stays focused and keeps me focused on the tasks at hand. She prepares with my individuals needs in mind.'' Oct 29 2007 ''Maria is extremely organized and well-prepared. She tailored the sessions to my needs and made adjustments during each meeting if certain topics needed more or less time. She is an excellent teacher!'' Oct 21 2007 ''[*] a comfortable atmosphere conducive to speaking in spanish'' Oct 20 2007 ''She was extremely understanding and helpful, to specific needs. She provided excellent accomodations in terms of flash cards etc.'' Oct 18 2007 ''When I do not understand something Mariella says, she is very good at explaining it in another way, or acting out the motion in order for me to understand'' Sep 27 2007 ''She was very good, however, the other student should have been properly placed. The student was more of a level 1 which took a lot of time away from me who was in my second session and new how it worked.'' Sep 11 2007 ''Listening to my needs and helping improve in areas of weakness.'' Sep 11 2007 ''Communication and flexibility on classes.'' Sep 07 2007 ''Ella presa atención de como me siento. Por ejemplo, una vez ella se dio cuenta de que yo estaba cansada y no podía concentrar bien. Ese dia me dejo anotar mis pensamientos antes de hablar. Esto me ayudó enfocar mejor. También ella corrige mis equivocaciones con respecto y con amor.'' Sep 04 2007 ''Tailored program to my needs and was attentive. Please note I only had two sessions due to personal time conflict so I am not sure I can fairly evaluate some of the questions'' Aug 13 2007 ''She exhibited patient and provided different exercises to convey the language.''
