Testimonials about our Spanish tutors
for students living in Washington DC
''Magda had a sense of humor and is very patient. Her emphasis on speaking was much appreciated.'' Sep 24 2010 ''She is awesome!'' Sep 24 2010 ''speak very slow and clearly. emailed us extra practice activities'' Sep 19 2010 ''she evaluated my level and knowledge accurately and has been flexible for scheduling. She speaks to me primarily in Spanish. She is easy to learn from and easy to understand.'' Sep 13 2010 ''She made clear explanations in both Spanish and English and helped me to understand differences from English in a logical manner.'' Sep 03 2010 ''Natalia was fabulous -- pleasant, clear, supportive, and still challenged us. She worked hard to accommodate people's schedules even though she didn't really have to. I was highly satisfied with her tutoring. The ONLY reason I am not continuing with her is that my current job will pay for me to take Spanish at an accredited university, and I've had to pay Spanish Blackbelt out of pocket.'' Sep 01 2010 ''Raquel was very good at combining lesson explanations with spanish conversation practice.'' Aug 31 2010 ''Made sure she was teaching what i wanted and needed to learn'' Aug 29 2010 ''Balanced the class well between exercises and conversation.'' Aug 17 2010 ''She spent a lot of time explaining the theory and logic behind the grammar of Spanish, and when she was not sure of the answer, was quick to confess that she had to look up the answer or consult another source (as I am sure I would have to do if I were teaching English). She also developed a strong personal connection with me and my classmates that we could draw on in conversation topics. This is an invaluable draw for Spanish Blackbelt that I would probably never find in another language course. I got the sense that she was truly and personally invested in my development in Spanish language and culture.'' Aug 17 2010 ''Magda was personable and atentive. If I was struggeling with anything she would take the time to help me understand how and why a statement is made.'' Aug 12 2010 ''Pretty much everything!'' Aug 11 2010 ''I really enjoyed my first conversational class with Magda from Spanish Blackbelt. What I really liked was she made the class fun and interesting. I would recommend her to anyone.'' Aug 02 2010 ''Raquel encourages us to speak Spanish for the entire session--that helps me so much. She speaks very clearly and uses educated Spanish. She is extremely well organized and punctual. I'm very happy with Raquel and hope to continue with her to the next level.'' Jul 29 2010 ''She is very patient. She gives good feedback in correcting grammar and pronunciation.'' Jul 27 2010 ''Kept the classes interesting and stimulated conversation very well.'' Jul 23 2010 ''Rosa was great at offering practice exercises and extra help on concepts when I asked for them. I also really appreciate her helping to reschedule a session that I thought I was just going to have to miss. She used Spanish almost all the time, and never made me feel embarassed when I made mistakes or didn't understand. I enjoyed her approach to teaching, and also really like her as a person! I appreciate that she got to know me and my classmate (encouraging us to bring in pictures, asking detailed questions, etc), and also told us about herself.'' Jul 15 2010 ''I really enjoyed [*] Fabricio as a tutor. He really pushed me to practice speaking Spanish and made me feel comfortable speaking.'' Jul 06 2010 ''Used current events and international incidents/situations to introduce real life conversation themes.'' Jul 02 2010 ''Claudia is very good at speaking slowly, clearly and recognizing if I was not quite grasping what she may have been saying, to change her approach. She is very positive with her support and was willing to answer any and all questions. She customized the class well based on what I may or may not have previously known or needed a refresh with.''
