''Consuelo is fantastic! I will miss my time with her. She was great at meeting my individual needs.'' Mar 21 2018 ''She explained everything in a clear, understandable manner and was so helpful with all the questions that we had.'' Mar 20 2018 ''Angelica is a wonderful teacher. She is patient and flexible with scheduling sessions. I like her enthusiasm.'' Feb 21 2018 ''She is attentive, clear, encouraging and does a lot of positive reinforcement via praise (which is the best!)... she is flexible and personable too. I enjoy working with her.'' Jan 31 2018 ''Consuelo is extremely attentive to my needs, and adjusts the curriculum based on how I can gain the most value. She is committed to helping me, rather than going completely "by the book."'' Jan 04 2018 ''Angelica was extremely knowledgeable about the language, especially the differences and nuances between Spanish spoken in Spain vs that in Latin America. Any time we had a question, she was able to answer in detail, as well as give us plenty of examples to explain.'' Dec 06 2017 ''Very positive and explained everything very well. Encouraging'' Dec 06 2017 ''Maria Elena was brilliant at establishing a friendly and warm relationship and it was abundantly evident that she enjoys her work enormously and remembers every bit of her interactions with me as the student. When she discovered that my ability didn't align well with the standard course curriculum (in that I am fairly advanced), she changed things up, used standard materials when they were relevant and really challenged me to read and write using outside literature and authors. It was great fun.'' Dec 04 2017 ''I have had private tutoring experience with two instructors. Both were excellent and I learning a lot very quickly and relatively painlessly with their methods. I took a Spanish class with another program in NYC and learned some language rules, but not enough to be able to claim that I spoke the language even minimally. My experience with Spanish Black Belt is an entirely different story. In even two sessions my tutor was able to engage me in basic conversation and increase my ability to understand and speak the language. I am amazed how much I've learned in such a short amount of time. My instructors have been seriously committed to teaching, but they are also very down to earth, friendly, patient and reassuring. They make learning fun and actually seem almost easy. Homework and online resources are excellent as well. This is an outstanding Spanish language program and I recommend it without reservation.'' Nov 14 2017 ''Maria Nunez is helped me to succeed in advancing in areas that was difficult for me.'' Nov 08 2017 ''Good explainations and spoke in spanish most of the time.'' Nov 07 2017 ''Consuelo does an excellent job of matching lessons to my progress and making sure that I have a good foundation before I move to the next level.'' Nov 07 2017 ''Lourdes is very friendly and personable.'' Nov 06 2017 ''Enforcing concepts, introducing new words'' Oct 31 2017 ''Very engaging and fun to talk to'' Oct 30 2017 ''She was very patient and flexible. I have always had a problem with speaking because I would be too embarrassed to say something wrong but she created a space [*] I felt comfortable. She identified my areas of opportunity and would focus on that during our sessions or during my homework.'' Oct 05 2017 ''Consuelo was the best Spanish teacher that I've ever had. She was extremely patient and helped me to go back and review concepts that I'd forgotten or never quite grasped in my courses through school. She was especially good at adapting lessons to fit my needs and interests. For example, since I'm interested in medicine, we reviewed medical vocabulary and practiced how to describe scenes and events that occur in a hospital. For me, this was a great practical exercise in how to apply the course content to real-life situations. She also helped me to prepare for a volunteer opportunity [*] I thought that I might need to speak Spanish.'' Oct 04 2017 ''She is professional but creates a fun, inviting environment to learn in.'' Sep 26 2017 ''Engaged me on individual learning interests. Was very accommodating of my schedule, which was crazier than expected due to unforeseen events. Nevertheless, Maria did a great job moving me along in learning.'' Sep 25 2017 ''Worked at my pace and made sure I understood information before rushing ahead to the next lesson.'' Aug 27 2017
