The classes I had with Carmen were fun and extremely productive. I realized straight away that she is a professional teacher with a lot of experience, which makes a huge difference—especially when preparing for an exam or a language proficiency test. She helped me immensely in planning my progress in Spanish and provided me with a lot of valuable materials to elevate my Spanish to the next level. I highly recommend booking classes with her!

Carmen is one of the best teachers I have ever known. She has the perfect combination of qualities to keep me moving forward. While she is unquestionably kind and supportive, she is also focused and organized. She made a deliberate effort to understand my needs and interests and formulated a detailed plan to achieve those objectives. Most importantly, her methodology has produced results. Right now, without a formal assessment, I can't say for sure how much progress I have made in the two months that I have been working with Carmen, but I am more confident, and that confidence has enabled me to better access my learning. Carmen created the environment that has led me to this point, and I am so grateful for her skilled and thoughtful instruction.

Best teacher I had so far on italki. Carmen is always prepared with a document for the lessons and gives me excellent explanations and examples. I made a lot of progress during our lessons. I highly recommend booking a class with her! :)

I’ve really been enjoying my general lessons with Carmen, she’s professional and an organised person who you can still have a natural free flowing conversation with about whatever topic. Also, I’m glad I did my B1 DELE prep with her because the tips and guidance from her as an examiner helped me to pass first time! 😀 I will definitely continue with my post-DELE general lessons with Carmen so that I can continue to improve in all 4 skill areas - reading, writing, speaking and listening. Because I know with her it will happen 😌

Carmen is helping me prepare for the DELE B2 exam, and I also want to learn more about Spain. In our classes, we discuss current events as well as language topics, and this gives me a nudge to continue making progress with my Spanish.
