I can't recommend Lucy enough! I always have so much fun learning more Nahuatl with her!! She has the perfect balance of teaching/presenting aspects of the language (vocabulary grammar, etc) and letting you try to speak the language, whether it's through reading or encouraging you to answer questions using Nahuatl. She is always kind and patient, even when I ask for a review of certain grammar or vocabulary points more than once. She also shares cultural aspects of the language/the native speakers of the language, and offers comparisons between the different dialects (what changes/stays the same, etc). Overall, I have learned so much from her and I look forward to future lessons!! :)

I had another great lesson with Lucy. I had a lot of fun exploring the structure of the Nahuatl language. Lucy is energetic and her love of languages comes through in her teaching. It was very helpful studying grammar, reading, and practicing speaking. I look forward to continuing my study of Nahuatl.

Lucy is a wonderful teacher: knowledgeable, engaging, and effective. Her knowledge of comparative grammar and vocabulary across many languages makes the lessons particularly helpful and interesting. I've had a few dozen Nahuatl lessons with her and am very happy with the results. The other day I watched a brief video in Nahuatl from the Univ. of Utah and understood everything the speaker said. We're at the point that we read stories in Nahuatl. Lucy can teach in English or Spanish. She has a wide range of teaching material depending on your interests.
