''Gerardo made me feel comfortable with trying to speak Spanish. Unlike previous instructors, he would encourage me to struggle with trying to compose sentences but would help me with figuring out the [*] conjugation, word, or phrase whenever I got stuck. He kept the conversation interesting so it didn't feel like rote question and answer sessions. It helped a lot that he would try to keep the conversation flowing by correcting me only when I made big or repeated mistakes, slowly working out the big issues as they come up.'' Aug 05 2013
