''Kept the conversation going. She kept it interesting and helped me focus on the subjunctive case in a way I could understand.'' Mar 12 2016
''she was able to talk about colloquial Spanish expressions that people do use regularly in different Spanish speaking countries'' Mar 11 2016
''Provide coloquial explanations, provide tips for learning, noted [*] curriculum needed to be updated/corrected
I should also clarify that I don't like rating the tutor compared to others because I have had other very good tutors. Saying that she is the same as others isn't a bad thing if being compared to other excellent tutors!'' Feb 24 2016
''Maria Elena is very patient and she conducted the sessions in a way that was conducive to speaking and comprehending conversational spanish.'' Jan 05 2016
''Consuelo made sure her lessons were extremely clear and focused on improving my individual needs and abilities. She also managed our time very well without me ever feeling rushed.'' Jan 05 2016
''Maria had us practice writing stories at home using the information from the previous chapters to reinforce our learning. We would read it in class and then try to remember it from memory as supplemental homework to the coursework. This helped a lot.'' Dec 25 2015
''Lourdes comes prepared to class and always on time, she was flexible to changing days when I had conflicts.
She makes it easier to remember vocabulary and understand the grammar rules and also how to pronounce words.
The sessions are always interactive and the fact that the whole session is in spanish makes it so much better.
I would like to continue studying with her!'' Dec 21 2015
''She was always prepared and very attentive to each student's needs. Being this the first level of learning, she was very patient with us and encouraged us to practice, even when I'm wasn't confident at first!'' Dec 14 2015
''Maria Nunez was extremely professional, friendly, and kept the class interesting. She is an excellent tutor.'' Oct 24 2015
''Maria Elena is a passionate teacher, someone who genuinely cares about her students' progress, their broader interests, and their personal and educational concerns. She went out of her way to find me Spanish YouTube videos and useful websites about my discipline without me even asking for them, all so I could become more familiar with the vocabulary used in my career -- a goal I had mentioned to her in passing but that we didn't discuss at length, as it wasn't part of the syllabus. I would have never expected a tutor to go out of her way to do something like that for me, so when Maria Elena took it upon herself to search for and send me such useful, valuable information I knew she was very different from most other tutors out there. It's not easy to learn (or re-learn) a second language -- it can be frustrating at times, to say the least -- but meeting with Maria Elena every week reassured me of my decision to register with SpanishBlackBelt. She is a wealth of knowledge and has a warm, caring, and fun-loving disposition. I always look forward to our conversations and leave class feeling accomplished and inspired. I won't go to another tutor again.'' Jul 03 2015
