Eliana Pineda

Me encanta estudiar con Eliana!!! Eli really is a phenomenal teacher. She's incredibly prepared, so easy to talk with, organized, on time, flexible, clear...I could go on an on. What I appreciate most about her is that she really understands my interests and always brings materials to our lessons that are fascinating and at my level (well, just beyond so she can push me a bit). Eli is skilled at scaffolding material to build upon what I've previously learned. She has a very kind heart and is incredibly supportive and encouraging (and has even given me some tough love), particularly when I'm beating myself up about not being able to say what I want to say. Eliana has known the answer to just about any question I've ever asked her. You absolutely can't go wrong with choosing her as a teacher. She's the best.

Eli is an incredible teacher and she is the biggest reason as to why my level of Spanish has significantly improved over the last few months ahead of my trip to South America. She is punctual, patient and always has an excellent lesson plan that is tailor-made in order for me to progress but remains flexible enough that the lesson can change if I struggle with something. Her classes are very enjoyable and informative and I always come out of each lesson with a better understanding of the language. She has a unique gift of being able to explain complex topics in a succinct way which allows me to progress at a much faster rate. She also has an excellent level of English which is very helpful when I need help expressing more complex thoughts. To say that she has worked a miracle with me would be a massive understatement. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their Spanish, regardless of their level.

Eli is absolutely fantastic and the main reason I love learning Spanish! I've been taking lessons with her for over a year now and she's a joy to learn from. Not only is she phenomenally patient and encouraging, she always takes the time to tell you what things you could improve on without ever making you feel bad. She is always incredibly organized while still being flexible depending on how the conversation goes or what things you get stuck on. After trying to learn Spanish for years, I really can not imagine having a better teacher than her and I'm so grateful that I found her when I did! She really does make learning fun while still being super productive during her lessons. Her lessons are worth every penny and she is a pleasure to know as a person!

Eli has been the best and most effective Spanish teacher I have had so far! She is wonderful!

I’m really excited to start lessons together!

Excelente maestra! Es buena enseñando gramática a través de la conversación y es muy paciente.
