for students living in Baltimore MD
''She was able to attune to the individual strengths and weaknesses of each student.'' May 22 2017 ''She works really hard to make connections to things we care about in our personal lives'' Apr 19 2017 ''Yan was serious about her job and explained concepts thoroughly.'' Apr 08 2017 ''Pushing us while knowing our limits of comprehension.'' Mar 13 2017 ''She insisted on us speaking spanish. She explained grammatical concepts well. She created a safe and fun learning space.'' Mar 13 2017 ''Yaneldis forced me to dig deep and try to think and verbalize my thoughts in Spanish. It is very important to be able to conceptualize the world in a particular language. My entire life I have viewed the world though the eyes of an English speaker. With her help, I'm gradually starting to see the world through the eyes of a Spanish speaker. This is important because some of concepts in Spanish do not directly translate into English. You must learn the logic and apply them in speech and writing.'' Mar 08 2017 ''She is empathetic to how difficult it is to learn a new language. She approaches each student with kindness and supportiveness. She is funny, kind and really cares about the students in our small group.'' Jan 22 2017 ''I appreciate the fact that she adjusted the speed of conversation and explanations for me. She was always patient and willing to answer my questions.'' Nov 29 2016 ''Margarita is very patient and works with me to help me understand and speak better.'' Sep 27 2016 ''Explain concepts'' Jul 20 2016 ''This is my first Spanish tutor. It would not let me answer N/A to question #15'' Mar 29 2016 ''was very very patient when I didn't understand something or asked her to repeat things several times'' Mar 22 2016 ''Margarita came to class very well-prepared, using home-made flashcards, print-outs, and was very good with creating relevant examples to elaborate on each chapter's material. Margarita was very consistent with her knowledge and explanations for every topic that was covered, provided very useful insight into regional differences in the Spanish language (particularly in explaining contrasts between Latin American Spanish vs. Castillian Spanish), and made great use of the full 2 hours of class time. I hope Margarita continues to teach for Spanish Blackbelt. I feel that she would be very hard to replace, as she provides me with great confidence and motivation to learn.'' Feb 22 2016 ''Explained the concepts very well'' Dec 07 2015 ''Marla was great. She was always prepared. I learned a lot'' Oct 25 2015 ''She was very flexible to our needs and was happy to accommodate any changes we asked for. She also was able to explain things well to us in Spanish, and listened to us explain our thoughts. It is also very nice that the tutor is the same age as her students. It allows for many more topics to be discussed.'' Oct 13 2015 ''Marla is very good at making me feel comfortable so that I can work myself over the fear of speaking with a native.'' Sep 02 2015 ''Very enthusiastic and explains quirks of language well.'' Aug 24 2015 ''Upbeat positive attitude. Marla is truly excited about teaching Spanish. Makes one want to learn the language.'' Jul 25 2015
