''Enforcing concepts, introducing new words'' Oct 31 2017 ''Very engaging and fun to talk to'' Oct 30 2017 ''She was very patient and flexible. I have always had a problem with speaking because I would be too embarrassed to say something wrong but she created a space [*] I felt comfortable. She identified my areas of opportunity and would focus on that during our sessions or during my homework.'' Oct 05 2017 ''Consuelo was the best Spanish teacher that I've ever had. She was extremely patient and helped me to go back and review concepts that I'd forgotten or never quite grasped in my courses through school. She was especially good at adapting lessons to fit my needs and interests. For example, since I'm interested in medicine, we reviewed medical vocabulary and practiced how to describe scenes and events that occur in a hospital. For me, this was a great practical exercise in how to apply the course content to real-life situations. She also helped me to prepare for a volunteer opportunity [*] I thought that I might need to speak Spanish.'' Oct 04 2017 ''She is professional but creates a fun, inviting environment to learn in.'' Sep 26 2017 ''Engaged me on individual learning interests. Was very accommodating of my schedule, which was crazier than expected due to unforeseen events. Nevertheless, Maria did a great job moving me along in learning.'' Sep 25 2017 ''Worked at my pace and made sure I understood information before rushing ahead to the next lesson.'' Aug 27 2017 ''Listening and communication'' Aug 09 2017 ''Lourdes is an exceptional teacher in every way. She is patient and knowledgeable and always well prepared. She seems to understand my weaknesses when conversing in Spanish without overcorrecting but enough so that I am constantly learning. I really enjoy our conversations and always look forward to our next session. And, although I credit my own efforts in part for my improvement, I also know for a fact that I could not have improved as much I did without Lourdes's help.'' Aug 02 2017 ''Maria Elena is so simpatica, patient, caring, and professional! She makes the 2 hours fly by, enjoyably.She's truly a gifed teacher and wonderful person.'' Jul 26 2017 ''Her willingness to explain concepts was impressive. Even though we'd be somewhat clear on a particular grammar concept, between classes she would research other ways of explaining or other exercises that she thought would help and would either email me such content and/or save it for for the following week to go over before the next class.'' Jul 07 2017 ''Consuelo was very good at helping me learn all of the material in a straightforward and professional manner.'' Jun 06 2017 ''My experience with Spanish BlackBelt and working with my tutor, Consuelo Ortega, has been my best language-learning experience by far. Consuelo is such a wonderful tutor. I feel comfortable with her, and I really feel like I'm learning a lot!'' May 24 2017 ''Maria Elena is super flexible with my erratic schedule, which is very helpful for me. But on top of that, she is a clear speaker and explains topics well. We speak Spanish the entire class and I feel very comfortable asking any questions that arise.'' May 23 2017 ''Very responsive; creative in her use of exercises; offered multiple suggestions on ways to improve my Spanish outside of our class sessions; very personable.'' May 23 2017 ''Maria Elena understands and addresses our needs and concerns, in terms of the new content. We engage in plenty of natural conversations in Spanish, which is my goal for myself.'' Apr 27 2017 ''She was very informative, clear, and easy to understand.'' Apr 04 2017 ''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. She made me feel comfortable using the language, and was totally professional, hard-working, and motivational. I give her the highest possible rating, and will continue taking lessons with her.'' Apr 03 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 ''Made the information fun'' Feb 12 2017
