''Glenys was patient and approachable as we had questions about certain topics and sentence structures. She made sure we were clear on topics before moving on, and encouraged us to practice current topics + what we have learnt before in exercises'' Dec 02 2024 ''Consuelo is an awesome tutor and did everything to the best of her abilities which was very beneficial.'' Nov 02 2024 ''Carolina was very kind and patient, always addressing mistakes in a way that encouraged me.'' Oct 21 2024 ''He was patient, encouraging, and made learning fun.'' Oct 03 2024 ''Glenys was very patient and gave me time to think through what I was trying to say. She was great at pushing me to expand my vocabulary and helped me find the [*] words to express what I was trying to say.'' Sep 07 2024 ''Adrian is patient,listens to students and corrects pronunciation and vocabulary tactfully. He is open to questions and I notice at the present level he prompts that the students to utilize the language through presentations, conversations and video listening. A wonderful way to get verbal practice. Grammar is present; however, I am enjoying the increased conversation for speaking the language has many challenges (verb tense recall, sentence structure,...). It's a struggle at times; however, I am always looking forward to the class.'' Aug 30 2024 ''She was always so warm and welcoming in our classes. She always answered my questions well and politely corrected my grammar mistakes. We talked about topics that were relevant to my life, making me not only look forward to our sessions but also helping me improve my skills in ways I can apply in real-life conversations.'' Aug 18 2024 ''Glenys provided the type of guidance that I as a heritage Spanish speaker really need. She was incredibly knowledgeable and did not take herself too seriously at all times.'' Jul 01 2024 ''Mindful of strengths and weaknesses, flexible agenda and class time was all in Spanish'' Jun 25 2024 ''Adrian is very patient,observant, attentive and pleasant. He provides a session atmosphere which invites learning and curiosity. He seems to tweak the delivery of the lesson's topics in a style in which all students, regardless of the slight difference in language exposure, can absorb the information and verbally participate without fear. His flexibly teaching style allows for more emphasis on areas of confusion; however, we continue to cover each lesson to its fullest. The first few minutes of each session begins with "...tell me about your weekend" or some topic. There is no escaping this conversation for each person must answer. This zooms me into Spanish mode. It also starts my tongue to loosen. I enjoy his inclusion of sentence or paragraph reading, short videos (various accents) and class conversation to improve pronunciation, listening and comprehension skills.
Adrian always asks if each topic covered was understood and he allows time review, if needed. I truly enjoy my lessons because as Adrian says, in Spanish: It's easy, [*]!'' Jun 05 2024 ''I can’t say enough good things about Adrian. This was third my class with him. He explains things in a way that makes Spanish seem uncomplicated. He is patient, supportive and builds one’s confidence. I am able to understand, read and speak Spanish at a level that far exceeds my starting point. In other language classes I’ve had, I’d peter out after a certain point and thought that learning a language was not in the cards for me. These classes are formatted so you build on one element at a time and, as long as you do your homework, it’s never really difficult. “Es fácil, verdad?” is a phrase that Adrian uses every week and my classmates and I always nod in agreement because Adrian makes it seem easy.
Each class also builds on the previous class so you are constantly reviewing previous content. I’ll be continuing with the light blue level and am so excited to advance my Spanish abilities.'' Jun 04 2024 ''He uses great material and always finds examples that fit well for me and my friend. It feels like the classes are created just for us'' Jun 04 2024 ''I think she did a good job at making sure that I got to practice my speaking skills and helped me catch and revise my mistakes.'' May 18 2024 ''Gian Carlo has been really wonderful ... I have some recent personal life issues/changes that have impacted my ability to focus and study and Gian Carlo has been really understanding and willing to go at my slower pace without getting frustrated with me ... I'm really thankful for my spanish classes with him :)'' May 16 2024 ''Gladys is so patient and supportive. She is really good at helping us get through difficult conversation or grammatical/vocabulary challenges.'' May 15 2024 ''Glennys is very easygoing and patient - and explains concepts really well. She's very encouraging and makes the lessons highly interactive so we get great practice.'' May 13 2024 ''He made the exercises enjoyable and real life scenarios to speak in spanish and progress as a student'' Apr 11 2024 ''They were personable.'' Apr 09 2024 ''Carolina is unfailingly helpful, inspiring, conversant, and fun.'' Apr 07 2024 ''Very patient with all the students and encouraging when they made mistakes. Explained things very clearly.'' Apr 03 2024
