Evelyn is a wonderful teacher and an even lovelier person. She is incredibly creative and knowledgeable in so many areas — history, art, music, neuroscience, and more. It’s always a pleasure to converse with her! What I appreciate most is the personalized material she prepares, which feels relevant and perfectly aligned with my interests. I also highly recommend her Neuroboost option — it includes sophrology practices that help put your mind in a calm, focused state, making it much easier to learn and retain new information. It’s been extremely supportive and enjoyable to experience alongside language learning. I highly recommend learning with Evelyn! :)

Senora Evelyn creates a welcoming environment for learning. Her patience is greatly appreciated, as I’m an older learner working on grasping a new language. At the end of each session, I’m left excited to continue to learn and for the next session. Senora Evelyn takes a friendly approach conducive for success.

Evelyn's NeuroBoost class es muy increíble. Es difícil de explicar pero puedo feel my brain begin to understand spanish words without having the knowledge of said words. It's as if I am absorbing words versus thinking about what the words mean - this is the best way I can explain the NeuroBoost experience. I can also say that I am very happy to have found Evelyn, and italki for that matter, as I know one day soon I will be able to more effectively communicate in spanish and with confidence I didn't have previously.
