''A mix of conversation and grammer. Kept us on certain areas until she felt we had nailed it.'' Oct 13 2023 ''Glenys is very personable, cares about us as a class, is prepared. She sees what our strengths and weaknesses are as a group and modifies as needed. She is very patient. She incorporates videos and a few extra activities that support and strength the SBB program. She is very flexible with scheduling. I like Gleyns!

(To note: In #15 I just said "about the same" as it has been years and years since I took a class. Those were in high school and college. So it's really comparing apples to oranges.'' Oct 12 2023 ''She was very cheerful, energetic and encouraging'' Oct 10 2023 ''Gladys was so great at prompting conversations so that I would practice more conversational skills. It was so nice to take small breaks from the instruction and practice my skills in a realistic way.'' Sep 19 2023 ''Always corrected my pronunciation, which is helpful. Give me spellings of ne vocabulary. She had good resources and new study methods that really worked for me.'' Sep 01 2023 ''Very supportive - made you feel comfortable taking risks and not being afraid to make mistakes.
Very knowledgeable - able to explain tricky concepts well.
Very well prepared for each session - no time wasted.'' Aug 31 2023 ''Excellent tutor. Always pleasant, patient. Explained everything very well.'' Aug 20 2023 ''Gladys kept the language very simple initially and over-enunciated to ensure our ears got used to the sounds and nuance.'' Aug 16 2023 ''Glenys was especially great at offering corrections during conversation. I appreciated how much of a chance everyone had to speak, and with a big variety of asking questions, answering questions, reading what we’d written and revisiting last weeks lesson.'' Aug 08 2023 ''She was patient and explained things clearly to my daughter. Some of the exercises were also a lot of fun, such as describing or discussing celebrities or family members.'' Jul 10 2023 ''Went through the exercises thoroughly, was encouraging, immersed me in Spanish during the whole session, was kind and engaging with lessons and feedback'' Jul 10 2023 ''She explained things well and reviewed concepts that were hard to understand.'' Jul 06 2023 ''Excellent use of role playing exercises in Spanish to force students to use improvisation to improve conversational abilities. I also liked that we used the course materials for the most part, but the instructor was flexible and understood when it made sense to do something different.'' Jun 15 2023 ''She's very kind and patient in her approach!'' May 08 2023 ''Taylored it to our particular needs, encouraged us to watch/listen to spanish outside of class for leisure.'' Apr 04 2023 ''I really have enjoyed Patricia's energy and organization during the class. We go through the assigned topics, but there is room to talk and speak loosely too, which I like.'' Mar 21 2023 ''I thought Glenys did a great job knowing when to let grammar mistakes slide, and when to drill down to help us improve'' Mar 08 2023 ''Excellent at keeping the class flowing, listening to students, pausing for questions: excellent "classroom" management. She gave plenty of time for the students to speak, and never dominated the time. She was kind to all students. She balanced grammar with activities. Overall, great class, great teacher.'' Jan 31 2023 ''She was always interested in our conversation which spanned many topics. She was ready to think of a next topic smoothly and consistently. She simply was a nice person as well.'' Jan 30 2023 ''She really tailored the classes to my goal of continued speaking on my part'' Dec 22 2022
