Santiago Herrera

I hope my 29 other tutors won’t see this, but Santiago Herrera es alguien súper especial! 🌟 The entire time he was screensharing a document where he corrected all my errors. Literally all of them! I’ve never been corrected so many times in a single hour in my entire life! And yet, we still managed to have a deep, personal conversation that was valuable for more than just learning Spanish. I can’t wait to talk to Santiago next month after I get through the remaining 16 tutors I’m signed up with, sigh… Le doy mil estrellas! 🤩

Santiago is very attentive, genuine, and patient when he teaches, also being strict now and then, which I have found so helpful in my learning. He is very flexible and fun in his teaching methods and the topics we discuss applies to real life, so it isn't as rigid as solely following a textbook. I highly recommend him to anyone of any age looking to learn Spanish, regardless of level! His English is fluent so it helps when I can't fully understand something in Spanish. I have taken classes for around 3 months with him and I can read and comprehend in Spanish quite well as someone of a beginner-inter level. I would be nowhere without him as my teacher! :)

Santiago, gracias por otra clase buena! Estaba nerviosa hablar sin transcripto pero eres fuiste muy amable y paciente conmigo :)

I still remember the first day of my Spanish class with Santiago; I only knew a couple of words in Spanish such as Hola, Gracias, and 'Café con leche y croissan, por favor'. His passion toward teaching has walked me through the steps to practice speaking Spanish. His patience and quick wit make me feel comfortable even when I make some mistakes. Besides his affability and encouragement, I appreciate him being attentive in every single class with meticulous attention to my mistakes. For me, the best part of his class is that he does not give me a right answer immediately, but nudges me to guess the correct one so that I can feel like ‘I Accomplished Something Great!’ I want to express my sincere gratitude to you, Santiago and I am psyched for the next class! ¡Hasta pronto!

Santiago is a charming ,creative and direct teacher. He is prepared with a helpful and unique style of teaching. i have a clear direction in which to work and am hopeful this will help me immensely on my journey to speak well in spanish. Looking forward to my next lesson.

Great first lesson with Santiago! I am looking forward to the next one!
