Excellent, Patient and Knowledgeable Teacher

Isaac Y was incredibly clear and direct in our work together in Spanish. I appreciated the way in which he began our session by reviewing my expectations and wishes for how to most effectively work with the material at hand, and his clarity and intuitive approach to working with me gave me a lot of confidence. He was skilled at structuring our work so that we could maximize the lesson time and I felt very productive when reviewing the outcome of our first lesson. His warmth and encouragement put me at ease, and his confidence in my ability to build on my skills in Spanish as we worked together inspired me to work harder. He is a wonderful teacher and I look forward to continuing to work with Isaac Y. as I made such great progress in our first session together.
