Juan

I've been taking classes with Juan for almost half a year now, basically starting from zero Spanish familiarity other than what I've learned in elementary school. Juan's teaching style keeps me engaged and the lessons progress in a way that make it easy to build upon past concepts. I've also appreciated when we take short detours from the lesson when Juan answers specific questions I have, sometimes giving historical and cultural context about Mexican Spanish. I can tell I'm making progress more consistently than when I've tried to learn by myself, so I'm excited to continue with Juan.

I have been studying with Juan for a year now, and he has greatly helped my Spanish. He’s an advocate for proper pronunciation and grammar, and always corrects you when you make mistakes. He also has a great sense of humour which makes every lesson fun and lighthearted. For me personally, this makes the learning process more enjoyable and relaxed.

Juan is the best instructor! His lessons not only teach you the language and the grammar, but also the history of where the language derived from, helping you to connect with the Hispanic and Spanish culture even further. I've been working with Juan consistently every week for nearly 6 months now, and I have made so much progress and feel more confident. His lessons are organized, always prepared, and fun! Learning Spanish with Juan has truly been an enriching experience.

Great experience. In 30 minutes, Juan pinpointed areas I needed to work on before my trip. Now I can focus on what is most important to fix. I feel less overwhelmed and a bit more confident about tackling speaking during my trip.

Juan, Muchas gracias por la leccion y tu ayuda. Eres un tutor fantastico y veo porque Mike Ben te recomienda. Nos vemos muy pronto! Bill Fleming, PEI Canada

My teacher was super patient and helped me when I was struggling for the right words. After the lesson he spoke about things I was good at and things that I need to work on. He then gave me a lesson plan on how we should proceed. I would work with him again for sure.
