Best Spanish teacher ever! Very effective pedagogical methods. Thanks to Karen I learn at high speed. And most importantly, it is such a pleasure to learn and chat with her that I never feel like working. Karen is interesting, fun, patient, always well prepared, and knows perfectly how to adjust her teaching methods to your level and needs. I started with her as complete beginner and am now advanced. I highly recommend!!!

Karen has really helped me strengthen my Spanish. I love the topics she uses for our lessons and my vocabulary is growing because of it. I feel much more comfortable expressing myself in Spanish now.

Karen es una profesora bien cualificada, y realmente me encantan mis clases con ella. Me manda artículos sobre temas interesantes para leer y comentar en clase, y siempre me siento cómoda durante nuestras conversaciones. Nunca tengo miedo de hacerle preguntas ni de cometer errores, porque siempre está dispuesta a ayudarme con la gramática y estructura correcta, dándome ejemplos y explicaciones claras. Además, Karen es muy motivadora, y quiere que yo beneficie de cada clase. La recomiendo como una maestra amable, divertida, entusiasta y muy eficaz.
