Wonderful tutor
My daughter had a great session with Felipe. He was enthusiastic and very relatable. Clearly explained concepts she has been struggling with. Definitely recommend!

Convenient, patient, and effective
I have spent years trying to learn Spanish. I took 2 years in high school, 2 years in college. I have done the apps and at home learning boxes. I knew some basic words and conjugations (only in present tense) but really struggled with conversation. I hired an in-person tutor, which was very expensive and inconvenient. I finally stumbled upon Wyzant and was matched with Felipe. My experience with Felipe is amazing. Classes are very convenient (I literally take it from my office ... my boss thinks I am in a meeting. Don't tell anyone.) He gives me well organized exercises to practice and even suggested I read some beginner books. But our time in class is spent TALKING. We sometimes start with a quick "how was your week" conversation to work on past tense. Other times, "what are you doing now" to work on present tense. Those conversations have moved me forward in leaps and bounds. He is patient (and believe me, I need it), and great at clarifying different terms from different countries (Spain vs Mexico, for example). We actually have a great time and I am more and more comfortable speaking. For me, key to learning was to drop my pride and SPEAK. I make a lot of mistakes. That wasn't initially comfortable for me. But I am kindly (and humorously) corrected and really learn quickly. I cannot recommend Felipe highly enough!

Highly Recommended Tutor
Filipe is a great teacher. He is very patient and understands different learning styles. He tailors his tutoring to the learning style of the student. I highly recommend his services. Will definitely be scheduling another session.

Friendly, patient and knowledgable
I've been taking lessons with Felipe for four weeks now and it has been a great experience. He calibrated quickly to my experience level and his style allows for lots of natural conversation to practice realistic speech with another person. He is knowledgeable about grammar and etymology and uses a variety of methods to illustrate concepts.

FLACS Exam
Felipe greatly improved my son’s comprehension and speaking skills in Spanish. He was worried about passing his FLACs exam. He not only improved but truly enjoyed his sessions with Felipe and passed his exam.

Spanish III
Felipe is really patient and helpful, breaking down grammar in simpler terms to enhance understanding. He responds to our message quickly whenever we have concerns for timing or availability. It has been a pleasure working with Felipe to help my son better prepared for a hard Spanish curriculum at school. Thank you!

Great Spanish Tutor
My son needed some help with high school Spanish and had a class with Felipe, which he really enjoyed. Initially, he was hesitant to try a tutor, but now he's excited to continue taking classes with Felipe.

I highly recommend you book a session with Felipe D.
If you're looking for someone to learn from that is interesting and really funny and cares deeply about being a good teacher, I cannot recommend enough that you schedule with Felipe. In one year with him I have grown so much in my ability to be conversational in Spanish. And more importantly, I have genuinely enjoyed the time I've spent learning. I actually look forward to my lessons each week. I can't wait to see the progress I am going to make in year 2 with the help of my amigo, Felipe.
