Óscar fue mi primero profesor aquí in italki y yo no podría haber empezado de mejor manera. Él es todavía uno de los profesores más bien preparados, entretenidos, y profesionales con quien he tenido clase aquí. Sabe adaptarse al nivel del estudiante, siempre tiene una pregunta o tópico para mantener la conversación adelante. Incluso cuando tenía clases más centradas en gramática, el tópico era presentado de forma natural y con prácticas para mejor fijar lo aprendido. Ya hace más de un ano q he tenido al menos una clase al mes con Óscar, y me parece q el la hora pasa cada vez más rápido. ¡¡Muchas gracias por todo, profesor!! :D

I've been taking "Speaking Only" Spanish with Oscar almost every week for about 4 months now. He is the best. Our entire conversation is always fun and engaging, and he intuitively seems to know when to let my errors slide and when to help correct me when I'm making the same mistake repeatedly. As a result, my confidence and ability to hold a conversation has improved immensely. We talk about so many different topics each class that my conversational vocabulary has become notably more sophisticated, and my (American) accent is nowhere near as overwhelming as it used to be! I wish I had found him years ago -- but I'm thrilled that my speaking skills are finally starting to catch up with my reading and writing. Highly recommended.

¡La clase con Óscar me encantó! Óscar es una persona muy abierta y sonriente, tiene mucha experiencia y conocimiento profesional, además te anima a hablar más y te ayuda durante el proceso. Muchas gracias, Óscar!

Oscar is a great teacher - he's extremely approachable, very easy to speak to (which is essential given that I am already struggling with the foreign language, no need to also struggle with keeping the conversation going!), flexible and always accommodating with last minute schedule changes etc. I like how he uses google drive to do exercises as it gives you the best from all the textbooks out there but also makes sure you don't get stuck with a particular textbook structure (as they tend to be quite artificial and not the best way to learn the real language). I've been taking classes with Oscar for the last 1.5 years and feel that I have made excellent progress both in terms of grammar and vocabulary and becoming a more fluent speaker (I now even use Spanish at work from time to time).

Óscar Ortega was a great class and the hour flew by so fast. Loved the energy and excitement and learned so much. Would absolutely recommend Óscar if you need help with vocabulary and fluency. Thank you for a great class, well worth it.

Muy buena clase, tuvimos una conversación muy interesante sobre una variedad de temas. Me da correcciones de la manera que yo le había pedido hacerlo y me ayuda muchísimo. Muchas gracias a Óscar, seguro que volveré
