for students living in Washington DC
''Mely was very deliberate and precise. I loved her teaching style. She is warm and intelligent. Great teacher!'' Aug 18 2007 ''My tutor was very engaging and helped carry out conversations in Spanish on topics that interest me.'' Aug 17 2007 ''She was so kind and worked to help me if I missed a class because of work travel.'' Aug 16 2007 ''She pushed us which was Exactly what I needed! Since this was a beginner class, & especially w/me, she wasn't able to use only Spanish as often as I'm sure would be used for higher levels. I really feel that she's helped me learn more than I have in the few year's (off & on) I've tried learning from cd's.'' Aug 13 2007 ''He was very attentive to the students needs and gave clear explanations. Plus he was very patient and made you feel comfortable talking and asking questions.'' Aug 01 2007 ''Because the sessions are in the tutor's apartment, Joaquin makes an effort to make us comfortable and welcome, offering water, bathroom breaks, etc. At the advanced level, the focus is on conversation and writing; Joaquin is always well prepared with interesting discussion materials. He also makes the class fun with a variety of vocabulary games.'' Aug 01 2007 ''Explained things very well. She spoke Spanish most of the time. If I did not understand it, she said it in English after the Spanish.'' Jul 26 2007 ''Claudia has infectious enthusiasm and always gave me interesting articles to read and discuss. She did a great job challenging me to defend my opinions in Spanish and stretching me to improve my language skills.'' Jul 24 2007 ''very patient and friendly'' Jul 20 2007 ''Mely made us feel comfortable and at ease, even if we misprononced words'' Jul 16 2007 ''Mely kept us on target - constantly in Spanish, constantly thinking and talking. I only said "about the same" above because all of my instructors have been excellent! I dropped out of the course early because I had to leave the country unexpectedly.'' Jul 13 2007 ''What did this tutor do partiularly WELL?
And the answer is he keeps things interesting and makes learning fun. I also like the exercises that force us to practice a theory we just learned (e.g., application of positive and negative commands, formal and informal).'' Jul 10 2007 ''As always, Mely was great. We thought she did a great job using scenarios for us to practice medical terminologies while also [*] fun.'' Jul 04 2007 ''Take into account the level of each student.'' Jul 02 2007 ''grammar explanations'' Jul 02 2007 ''Natalia is wonderful. She is consistantly professional and productive, while being personable and friendly. She keeps her schedule (e.g. [*] and when we meet) flexible, is good at keeping track of my progress, gives me interesting and helpful assignments, and offers valueable and constructive criticisms of my work. I think very highly of her. She is a great teacher.'' Jul 02 2007 ''She was very helpful with explaining difficult concepts.'' Jul 02 2007 ''I am more comfortable speaking and trying out verb tenses with him even if I know I am probably wrong, which is a huge step forward for me.'' Jun 27 2007 ''Eduardo speaks to me in Spanish about various topics of interest and this has helped boost my comprehension and vocabulary.'' Jun 21 2007 ''Mely was always focused and attentive to my efforts, organized, and very encouraging.'' Jun 17 2007
