I have traveled within my country, I like to know the culture of the people, I find fascinating to learn new things, I like the mountains and the bicycle. I study International Relations, so I am interested in international issues and conflicts. I studied medicine, so I have a little knowledge in that field.

Maritza has been an excellent teacher. Her methods are effective and flexible depending on my needs at the time, and these are constantly changing as I get more confident reading, writing and speaking. She teaches medical language in a way that will accessible and useful for my patients for a long time to come.

Maritza is a fantastic teacher! She is very easy going and relaxing, which was nice because I wasn't used to have teaching through skype. At the same time she tries to push you to speak and to answer questions in spanish in a polite way. I give my best recommendations and I am looking forward to the next lesson :)

Fue una clase fantástica. Aprendí de la pulmonía y luego hicimos un juego de roles. ¡Bastante útil!

Maritza challenges me in a very positive manner during the lessons. We are now concentrating on increasing my vocabulary through mastering the use of the three past tenses in story telling. She also has me writing more which increases my vocabulary and focuses on the proper construction of sentences.

I just finished my 3rd lesson with her and she has been understanding with my learning and uses materials to move our lesson along in a structured format. I bought lesson package with her and will continue to learn from her weekly in the future.
