I think languages are the greatest way to connect with people and I travel often to practice and expirience other cultures first hand.

FOR BEGINNERS I focus on everyday communication introducing yourself, asking simple questions, ordering food and drink, asking for help and vocabulary for other useful situations. I use dialogues, flashcards, simple texts, exercises and role plays to make learning fun and me...

This was my first lesson with Maria, and it went very well! Since I am a beginner, Maria presented the alphabet and explained how to pronounce each letter. We also learned some basic vocabulary and greetings. Maria was helpful and made the class enjoyable!

Great lesson with Maria! We practiced the sounds of different letter combinations. Some of them are similar and need to be pronounced clearly. Maria has a keen ear and helped me make each sound properly. We learned a lot of vocabulary using the sound combinations that we practiced. After that, we read several short dialogs. Maria constantly provides feedback and positive reinforcement!
