Maria's Spanish classes are an absolute delight! Her creativity, kindness, and flexibility create a fun and engaging atmosphere. She encourages speaking, provides personalized attention, and fosters a safe space for questions and growth. Tuesday evenings with Maria are a weekly highlight, recharging my energies and fueling my passion for Spanish. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a dynamic and fulfilling language learning journey! ¡Gracias, Maria!

I am so thankful for these lessons. Maria always comes prepared and is very organized. She provides manageable homework that feels accomplishable in the time that I have to dedicate to this. In turn, that motivates me all the more to keep going in my study. Learning the language feels possible.

Another fantastic lesson. Maria was very well prepared and today we practised the subjunctive some more which Maria made enjoyable (which isn't easy!). The class went for 1 hour but felt more like 20 minutes because she is able to keep the lesson constantly moving and interesting. She definitely has a gift for teaching and I am thinking that once I master Spanish I might get French lessons from her! Thank you Maria.

Ich hatte jetzt eine Pause von 2 Monaten und war sehr ängstlich bezüglich des Wiedereinstiegs. Doch meine Lehrerin hat mich sehr gut durch die erste Stunde geleitet und mir wieder Selbstvertrauen gegeben.

Die Stunden bei Maria waren sehr gut. Sie hat eigene Materialien erstellt und ist sehr geduldig mit mir.
