Amazing tutor
Susan, 13 lessons with MariaI needed help in learning Spanish in order to prepare for the upcoming school year, since Spanish is usually my worst subject. Maria helped me practice my listening and speaking, as well as my reading and writing, which are the main skills assessed in my course. Thanks to her, I've now started this course with more confidence and much more skill. She's very patient and also clearly knew exactly what she was doing, as she had precisely the right strategies to learn certain skills. Essentially,...

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.
Maria is a very kind, patient, and knowledgeable tutor. She explained things in a way that was easy to understand. I enjoyed my lesson very much and look forward to taking more lessons.

Great teacher!
I take IB Spanish and was very unprepared at the start of the year. I get mostly A’s and B’s and seeing a C in the first quarter for Spanish really ruined my confidence. However, I decided to get a tutor and it was the best decision ever! Maria is very kind and patient and was willing to work with me to better my Spanish. I got a 92 on my final speaking and an 88 on my Spanish essay! If you told me that in the first quarter, I would probably laugh. Anyways, Maria was a great tutor and I look forward to continue working with her for senior year. Gracias!

Outstanding Teacher
She understands that each student learns differently and has different needs. She is able to pin point a student’s weaknesses and develop classes to improve their weaknesses.
