''she made the class sessions interesting and engaging, and she was kind and friendly'' Jul 15 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
