I am willing and able to tutor students in Spanish from elementary school, middle school, high school, college level and all adults who just want to learn Spanish for work or for fun.

I pride myself on being a patient and experienced Spanish language tutor and former elementary school teacher. I am willing and able to tutor students in Spanish from elementary school, middle school, high school, college level and all adults who just want to learn Spanish for work or for fun. I can also design a curriculum based on your particular Spanish language needs and wants. I know how to explain concepts clearly, raise grades and boost confidence. English is my first language but I lived and studied in Mexico for a few years.
I am also an experienced and effective elementary school teacher with over 30 years of teaching experience from the Los Angeles Unified School District. I have taught children of all ages from kindergarten through sixth grade.I have had three years of Orton-Gillingham training and one year of LETRS training in the Science of Reading. I taught kindergarten for 20 years and second grade for more than 12 years. I also successfully taught intervention classes as well as enrichment classes at my prior elementary school. I have had experience homeschooling in person as well.
I am available in person or online. I will always try my very best to help all of my students succeed.

I have been a California-certified elementary school teacher for 40 years.

I have been an elementary school teacher in Los Angeles for more than 30 years and I feel that I have tremendous experience to offer. I have been trained in the Open Court Method of instruction and now I am using the California Treasures program in my classroom.

Super Knowledgeable and Kind Tutor!

Stephanie worked wonders with my daughter who had been struggling with Spanish III. Topics that she would not understand through her class teacher were broken down/explained by Stephanie in a way my daughter was able to comprehend and that comprehension was reflected in the good grades she began to receive after setting up weekly sessions with Stephanie. Also, Stephanie was super easy to work with, very responsive when booking lessons, and with any questions I had about the sessions. Do not hesitate and book your session now with Stephanie. Bonus, her rates are super competitive.

Stefanie worked with my daughter, who is taking HS Spanish 2. My daughter felt Stefanie explained how to structure sentences very clearly. We will work with Stefanie again.

Thank you so much for your lovely review! It has been a pleasure to work with your son.

Stephanie has been a great tutor for my child for middle school Spanish.

Stephanie is doing a great job supplementing middle school Spanish with her lessons. I think my goal for improved fluency will be realized with lessons from Stephanie. She is very flexible with times, very patient with the student, and very responsive with the parents. I highly recommend her.

Connected with my son right away. She is very responsive and conscientious. He was struggling quite a bit in Spanish 1 but now he has turned the corner. We will continue with Stefanie through Spanish 2
