Very Creative
Susan has been a pleasure to work with. She is very responsive and flexible with scheduling. My son is having difficulty in Spanish at school and Susan has found ways to tap into his learning style and preferences, and really help him learn the complexities of the language. She engages him in visual and auditory learning, not just textbook and worksheets, although she has also been able to effectively engage my son with the text as well. We have been very pleased and grateful that we have found Susan. She is helping to give my son a strong foundation in Spanish, which I am confident will allow him to build his skills as time goes on.

Thanks Susan
My daughter has studied with Susan for several months now and she has made excellent progress. Her spoken skills have significantly improved. She is going to take Spanish Honors III this Fall, and she has become quite comfortable speaking Spanish. Thanks, Susan.

Outstanding!
Susan is a top "pro" in tutoring Spanish students! She provided conscientious, in-depth and excellent assistance for my son in "catching up" with his middle-school Spanish class, grasping grammatical concepts and syntax, completing homework, preparing for tests, and becoming motivated to conquer what has been his most difficult subject. Among other things, Susan was impressively adept at working with his "learning style" so that session results were maximized. Highly recommend!

Knowledgeable Tutor
Susan has been an excellent teacher to my son for Spanish III. She began working with him mid-quarter and helped him get an A on the final which raised his grade from a high C to a high B. Her knowledge of Spanish and her teaching technique have been invaluable to my son's understanding, knowledge, confidence and participation in this subject. We are continuing lessons with her this term and his grade has been an A all semester. Susan is a good communicator and has provided honest feedback. She has gone the extra mile to find time to meet with my son; she even scheduled a tutor lesson the night she got back from vacation because it was the only time my son could meet. I really appreciate her commitment to having my son succeed. We live 1/2 the country away from her, but the Skype tutoring is successful. We recommend that you meet and work with Susan for Spanish.

Amazing Teacher
Before I met Susan, I was taking private lessons for a year but still could not speak a word of Spanish. I’ve only been working with her for a few months and in that short time my oral language has improved drastically. She’s an amazing, fun and skillful teacher that makes lessons enjoyable and easy to learn.

Big Improvement!
My daughter struggled in Spanish 1 and started this school year off with similar struggles in Spanish 2. Her tests and quizzes averaged a C- in the first quarter at which point she asked me to find her a tutor as she was worried about falling further behind as the year progressed. After just 5 sessions with Susan, her second quarter test and quizzes are averaging a B. My daughter was apprehensive about online tutoring but she feels so much more confident in the class. She appreciates the extra study time focused specifically on what she needs help with. I highly recommend Susan!

Excellent Spanish tutor
Susan taught my son the first time. She was very nice and taught very well. Susan was patient and highly knowledgeable about the subject matter. I would highly recommend her to all students seeking guidance in Spanish.

Fun and knowledgeable!
In preparation for a job interview, Susan catered several sessions to help me get ready for a job interview in Spanish. She sent me vocabulary ahead of time to look at, and our sessions were based on the helpful vocabulary. She had my interview in mind as she prepared every activity, and I walked into my interview feeling confident! She is fun, kind and really invested in my learning and language development. I highly recommend Susan!

La mejor profesora
I’ve been taking lessons with Susan for a month now. She uses images to help me memorize and learn faster. Sometimes she would speak kind of fast in Spanish but that’s because she wants your ears to get used to the language. She always has your best interest at heart. I can officially say I went from 0-100 real quick because I’m so much better at Spanish now. Of course, you have to practice a lot on your own too but that’s the case with every language. If you wanna be fluent in Spanish, give Susan a shot because she’s incredible at teaching. Her teaching technique is the best as it allows you to pick up a language very quickly. Give her a shot, you won’t regret it!
