Very knowledgeable and patient tutor

I grew up speaking Spanish. Although I was born in the United States, I am considered a Native Spanish speaker. I was looking to be able to speak Spanish mor sophisticated, and tutoring with Francisco I learned simple ways to do so. He is very attentive to me when I spoke, corrected me when needed and provided positive feedback. I am looking forward to my next lesson.

Great teacher!

He is a Great professor. He has a good way of teaching. It is nice learning from a native. He goes through a book which is nice because you have it written and you also hear it from him. I would recommend him for anybody of any level of Spanish.
