Excellent tutor
Kristee was a tremendously effective tutor for my son as he prepared for the AP Spanish test. She quickly identified his weaknesses, addressed them, assigned thoughtful practice, and provided helpful tips for success. I received a thorough summary of each lesson, and my son felt well prepared as he went into the exam today.

Great for reading and speaking fluency
I was originally very confused about grammar in Spanish, but Kristee explained everything very clearly. She's also helped improve my conversational skills and reading comprehension. I can now do my AP Spanish homework much faster.

Clearly knowledgable and experienced!
We were able to strategize a way forward to help my son work towards his AP Spanish next year. He is looking forward to starting a year with Kristee and I am feeling very confident we have found the right person for him.

Her candor was valuable
I asked Kristee to assess my kid’s ability to score a 3 or higher in the upcoming Spanish AP exam. She visited with my kid for an hour online and then sent me a very informative email. Rather than string me along with false hope as many would do, Kristee advised that he’s too far behind to hope to pass this go round. While disappointing, her advice empowered me to make the right decisions about how to direct resources. It was time and money very well spent.

Keeping the ball moving forward
Helping son with more conversation. And incorporating classroom learning. Building confidence and using learned concepts. Friendly, engaging, making sure there is not just practice, nut understanding.

Can't imagine a better Spanish tutor!
Kristee is very patient and encouraging, and will teach you a ton in a short time. She has a PhD in Spanish, so it's like having my own personal professor now. She is really an expert not only in the subject of Spanish but also in teaching it in an individualized way that has made it so much easier for me to learn!

Knowledgeable, patient and professional tutor
Kristee stepped in to tutor my son (who is having challenges in Spanish class at school) at very short notice which is highly appreciated. My son is pleased and reported that he improved and learned even from the first session. I like Kristee professionalism, she sends me a summary after each session and my son likes her style. My son sees value in working with Kristee moving forward and that makes me a very happy mom. I greatly appreciate your help, Kristee!
