Hi,
my name is Jorge A. (also, Mr. A.). I am originally from Avilés, Asturias, in Northern Spain. I am a native speaker of Spanish. I came to the United States of America after graduating with a BA in English at the Universidad de Oviedo, in Spain, where I concentrated my research on English Renaissance literature, especially on William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe, John Dryden, Aphra Behn, Elkanah Settle, Lodowick Carlell, etc. In Western Massachusetts, I took some graduate courses on...

Jorge is great!
I hired Jorge to work with my 8th grader on strengthening her grammar, sentence/paragraph structure, and word choice. Jorge is patient, responsive, and encouraging. After only two sessions, my daughter already sees improvement. We’re very pleased!

Knowledgeable and fun tutor
Jorge has been tutoring my 14 year old son for couple of weeks now. He is knowledgeable, patient and fun. My son enjoys attending his sessions and says that Jorge makes learning Spanish fun. Jorge covers the beginning Spanish concepts and provides needed exercises for him. He provides extra practices to do after the session to make sure my son learns the concepts and goes over these the following session.
Unal, 16 lessons with JorgeTutor responded:Thanks, Unal. It is a pleasure to work with Ahmed. He is an intelligent boy.
Very knowledgable, friendly. Great guy.
First meeting: Went over fundamentals (Ser, Estar, Tener) I hadn't covered since 30 years ago. Really useful! Jorge and I spoke (to the extent I could) in Spanish, which was great. It gave me a sense of where I'm at and where I need to go to master the language going forward. Really looking forward to next meeting.

Excellent Spanish Tutor
Jorge has been tutoring my daughter for the last month. She is in a 6th-grade Spanish dual immersion program. Jorge has been able to help her with grammar rules and academic vocabulary. He looks over her assignments and practices conversation with her. He is a native Spanish speaker and also speaks English well. Jorge is personable, friendly, and dependable.
Michelle, 13 lessons with JorgeTutor responded:Thanks, Michelle. I enjoy tutoring your daughter very much. She is great and is improving her oral skills a lot.
GREAT TUTOR
Jorge gave my daughter a lesson that really helped her to visualize what she was learning about. He was very patient and that made her very comfortable to talk a lot more!
Carissa, 1 lesson with JorgeTutor responded:Thanks, Carissa. Please let me know when you want to schedule another lesson.
meets students where they are at
My son has been working with Jorge now for a few weeks. Jorge took the time to get to know my son and how he learns best. He found things of common interest between the two of them and uses them as examples when teaching. Jorge challenges him (a good thing!), yet also makes sure he understands the current concept before moving on. He provides him with content to use for practice between lessons as well. My son looks forward to his sessions with Jorge. I would strongly recommend him as a Spanish mentor / tutor. He is very qualified and quite approachable!
Wendy, 21 lessons with JorgeTutor responded:Thanks, Wendy, for your nice words. I am always looking forward to working with your son. He is a really good student and he is improving a lot.
Communicative and patient
We studied irregular verbs--which are extremely difficult to absorb. Jorge and I reviewed common irregular verbs and used them in sentences.
