I felt like he really cared about helping me improve my spanish, not just getting through a lesson plan.''

She goes above and beyond - what an asset to your team!'' May 12 2011 ''Offered extra material for studying. Understood my style of learning. Was always on time and helped me to feel more at ease when I felt like I struggled. Explains grammar very well and was patient :-). I am very content.'' May 07 2011 ''He explained topics specific to my needs. As I am in Spain a lot, he taught me about certain things he experienced there that would help me speak to people there that were not in the lessons.'' May 02 2011 ''Eduardo speaks only in Spanish but does so clearly, always making sure I understand completely what he is saying.'' Apr 29 2011 ''I was very satisfied with my once a week sessions with Eduado. We spent at least half or more of every class in coversation since that is the most difficult thing for me. Eduardo was extremly patient, asked a lot of questions to get me talking and convinced me he was very interested in whatever topics we discussed! When I asked that we cover the present subjunctive we used some of the lessons in the more advanced belt level to do that. I was glad there was the flexibility to do that. I totally achieved my objective of preparing for my trip to Peru and 3 weeks at a language immersion school here in Peru.'' Apr 27 2011 ''Very encouraging and explained concepts well. Created a comfortable environment that it is okay to make mistakes when learning a new language.''
