My introduction lesson with Fernando was amazing! I appreciated how he incorporated my specific goals into our first lesson. He was very patient, thorough, knowledgeable, energetic, and made the lessons feel approachable. We discussed my personal goals and Fernando made me feel they are attainable through a personalized lesson strategy. He was quick to follow up after our meeting with notes and an assignment to work on before our next session. So far I am feeling the most optimistic and motivated about learning Spanish than I have felt in years! I highly recommend Fernando!

In just one class, I learned a lot of new words and expressions with Fernando. The class was fun and Fernando is easy to talk to - I highly recommend.
