''My tutor, Maria Elena, was encouraging, charming, patient, lovely, and had the ability to make our sessions very enjoyable. Every minute was spent practicing my Spanish and enhancing it.

''Jose was an outstanding instructor. Kind, caring, and patient, he was always willing to work with me to work through the materials, identify subjects [*] I could use some extra help, and helped me by finding resources to study above and beyond the curriculum. I have nothing but great things to say about Jose. Thank you!'' Mar 29 2017
''1. focused on the content that was to be learned at each session
2. encouraged me to speak and did not interrupt when I was on a roll, and then when I was finished he pointed out gramatical errors in writing so that I could read and remember them later'' Mar 27 2017
''He was very patient, came well-prepared; good listener; kept us on track.'' Mar 27 2017
''I started my last session with Claudia Concha, but moved on to most recently be working with Alvaro Llanos. I have very positive thing to say about my classes with Claudia, but this survey is in reference to Alvaro's class. Al's strength is that he doesn't take it easy on me--which I appreciate very much. I chose SpanishBlackbelt because it has been the only format [*] I have been able to improve my Spanish fluency without traveling to do a formal immersion program. Al is good at mirroring this experience. He speaks to me in our classes fairly directly without watering down his speech to beginner levels. When I fail to understand something he adjusts and explains in simpler Spanish, of course. But I have enjoyed this direct approach and feel it helps me progress faster.'' Mar 26 2017
''Took the time to explain everything and moved slower/faster depending on how well I grasped the topics.'' Mar 24 2017
''Consuelo adapted to my learning style, was very informative and supportive. Consuelo inspires learning with her positive approach. Consuelo focuses on the [*] combination of reading, writing, reading out loud and speaking - accelerating my learning objectives.'' Mar 23 2017
''Gonzalo was always willing to review and be patient when we were learning. He explained the objectives in different ways.'' Mar 22 2017
''Claudia does an excellent job of engaging me in normal conversation so I develop the ability to understand spoken spanish.'' Mar 21 2017
''She insisted on us speaking spanish. She explained grammatical concepts well. She created a safe and fun learning space.'' Mar 13 2017
''Pushing us while knowing our limits of comprehension.'' Mar 13 2017
''Gonzalo explained everything very well. He was always at the location early and made great use of the time. We covered all of the material for each session and continued to converse in Spanish at a high level.'' Mar 12 2017
''Yaneldis forced me to dig deep and try to think and verbalize my thoughts in Spanish. It is very important to be able to conceptualize the world in a particular language. My entire life I have viewed the world though the eyes of an English speaker. With her help, I'm gradually starting to see the world through the eyes of a Spanish speaker. This is important because some of concepts in Spanish do not directly translate into English. You must learn the logic and apply them in speech and writing.'' Mar 08 2017
''great teacher'' Mar 02 2017
