A few years ago, I was looking for someone to help me with my English, and I found Pilar. Shes an excellent teacher and very patient. Shes been helping me a lot and giving me many resources to improve my English. The classes are enjoyable, with listening, grammar, reading, and speaking. Thank you so much, Pilar.

Maria is an excellent teacher. She understood my learning needs immediately and provided tailored exercises for me. She took notes of my mistakes when I spoke and helped me use the correct words or phrases in the exercises with patience. Then she sent me the notes so I could practice after class. I made great progress and felt more confident when speaking just after a few sessions with her. I would recommend her to anyone whos looking for a really professional Spanish tutor.

One of the unexpected pleasures of my language journey has been to find Maria. We discuss literature, poetry, music, history, culture, cooking, and so much more. In the world of language tutors she is a shining star.
