I have taken several lessons with Karen so far and I've found her to be an excellent tutor and a wonderful conversationalist. She always comes to our lessons with topics prepared and she provides instruction conducive for improving conversational skills while also improving upon grammar and incorporating new vocabulary. I would highly recommend Karen for anyone looking to improve their Spanish regardless of how much they know going in! 10/10!

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!!!

My experience with Karen has been nothing short of fantastic. She is patient, engaging, and has a knack for explaining complex topics in a simple manner. She is an amazing conversationalist and always has interesting topics to talk about. She has tailored my lessons to my level and my needs. My Spanish has improved dramatically as a result of my lessons with her. I cannot recommend her enough.
