Sep 10 2006 ''Mely is very patient and helpful'' Sep 07 2006 ''Tailored the classes to my particular need to speed up my comprehension and fluidity of speech in a very short time. Did a huge amount of preparation outside of class hours, including devising individually tailored exercises and searching and downloading podcasts for comprehension practice. This guy deserves a bonus; do not lose him.'' Sep 06 2006 ''The conversations he led in class were lively and stimulating. By picking topics I really wanted to talk about, I was pushed to expand my vocabulary and form more complicated sentences. I also enjoyed the homework tasks [*], and the variety of different ways we were encouraged to engage with the Spanish language.'' Aug 24 2006 ''I appreciate her overall style of teaching - she makes learning very enjoyable!'' Aug 21 2006 ''Understand needs of the student'' Aug 15 2006 ''WEndy made me feel very comfortable in class. Normally I am hesitant and embarassed when speaking Spanish, but she created an environment in which I felt completely relaxed and confident.'' Aug 09 2006 ''I could not rate her because I have not had a Spanish tutor in the past. In particular, I like the way she allows for the conversation to flow, and encourages us in expressing ourselves, even though our level is quite limited.'' Aug 09 2006 ''Have had no Spanish tutors in the past, so am comparing with teachers of other languages. Mely lavishes attention on each student, making each feel like they are taking private language lessons. She is very encouraging and lavishes praise easily which has helped with my own feelings of language inadequacy.'' Aug 09 2006 ''Luis was flexible to the students' needs. He understands that applicability is as relevant as ability.'' Aug 07 2006 ''Several of us discussed the fact that in some classes it can be intimidating to speak. Wendy made us feel very comfortable and free while speaking. I looked forward to the class every week.'' Aug 06 2006 ''Mely does a great job of correcting things I say incorrectly but not expecting perfection. Each week she expects me to use the corrections we worked on the previous week.'' Jul 28 2006 ''He tailored the instruction to my particular interests and needs, encouraged me to converse a great deal more than I had before.'' Jul 23 2006 ''She can relate to all of us well. She was more of a friend less of an "instructor". She had a difficult group because we were kind of missed matched, but, she made the best of it.'' Jul 19 2006
