The teacher has been execeptional. I was very hesitant to revisit learning spanish because I really needed a professor that would understand where I am and the unique position I am in as a native english speaker and then being billingual in Italian while having Latin American roots and a history of taking spanish coursework in school. I have been so pleasantly amazed at the level of my teacher’s willingness to work with me, create the most amazing individualized lessons that acknowlege my goal in becoming trilingual. Jeff’s exceptional teaching, his lessons, and his approach need to be a model for all italki teachers. I really cannot express enough how grateful every week I am to work with Professor Jeff and I seriously look forward to our lessons every week!!

Salamat kaayo, Jeff, sa tanang paningkamot ug kahago. Padayon ta'g panarbaho nga magkauban aron mahimong mas abanse pa gyud ang akong Spanish - nga walay sagol nga Portuguese! I have taken a few lessons with Jeff, and he is a wonderful teacher! From the first class he's listened to my needs and interests, and customized lesson plans that are tailored specifically to my goals. The class topics have been very interesting, which encourages me to converse and practice my Spanish even more.

On our introductory lesson, Jeff has a structured teaching style and tailors his approach to your specific needs. Looking forward to learning more from Jeff!

The lessons are super motivating and engaging! The combination of learning new stuff and discovering what I already can by beeing encouraged to tack feels just right. I was actually surprized about beeing able to have a simple conversation with Jeff today - seemed impossible at first : ) And it feels like I'm really getting prepared to my spanisch medical rotation - consistently and step by step. Estoy entusiasmada por las próximas clases!

Jeff is a skilled Spanish teacher, who puts in meticulous efforts to improve my medical Spanish. He has developed custom lessons related to my subspecialty with topics that I can use right away to improve my communication with Spanish-speakers. Very impressed with the time and intentionality that has gone into developing the lesson content and pdf resources between lessons!

¡Jeff es un increíble maestro de español!
