I have more than a decade of experience tutoring students, middle school through adult education, in Violin, Spanish, English, Biology, and Writing. I have tutored SAT and History, as well.
I tutor Spanish at all levels, beginner through advanced. I have my MA in Spanish, and I studied abroad in Spain for a year. I give presentations in Spanish and translate for a legal services non-profit, too. Finally, I taught two years of Spanish 101 at the University of Wisconsin.

Spanish 3 (High School)
Spanish 2 was stressful for our son so we offered to hire a tutor for him the following year for Spanish 3. He met with Andrea for 20 hours in 16 weeks over the duration of the class (18 weeks). Her knowledge of the subject is superior. She provided practice tests, study tools and helpful tips for our son to be successful. With her help he earned a B the first term and an A the second term. Andrea arrived on schedule and was able to accommodate requests for additional and/or extended sessions to prepare for tests including the midterm and final exams. Our son is now considering continuing on with Spanish 4 during his senior year on the condition that Andrea will be his tutor again.

Intelligent, patient, and motivating
I just had my first lesson with Andrea. She will teach English writing and Math. She is not only very, very knowledgeable, she also knows how to challenge me to think deeper. She is a truly amazing teacher!

In a very short period Andrea has helped our son improve his first year high school Spanish grade. Most important, she is giving him the tools and confidence to succeed in Spanish.

Great tutor
Andrea helped my daughter bring up her Spanish 3 grade up two letter grades in 8 weeks. My daughter was struggling all year and it was not until the end of year that she finally asked for help in order to avoid blowing out her GPA. Andrea is very patient and excited about Spanish.

Helped bring my sons grade up
Before my son started Spanish 3 tutoring with Andrea he was getting a D in the class with no hope of bringing it up and looking at his grade possibly dropping to an F. After nearly 3 months of tutoring with Andrea his grade went up to a C and we couldn't be happier. Andrea has been reliable, punctual and professional. My son felt comfortable with her and she was able to explain the material and give him Spanish exercises to improve his understanding and increase his test scores to pass the class.

Muy Buena!
Andrea is very accessible and timely in responding to communications. She is fluent in Spanish and has a friendly kind demeanor that makes families and young children comfortable quickly even for the very shy. She is a skilled educator with flexibility to adapt to an individual's learning styles.
