It always is a massive pleasure to take classes with Ismael. He is one of the greatest listeners I've had the pleasure to talk with. And for that, there's not a single moment during class that you feel unheard. But above all, Ismael's analytical mind in getting to know his students makes his classes exceptional. Catching onto the subtlest cues during conversation, Ismael constantly works to understand you not just as a student with language goals but also as a whole person. This has revealed to me things about myself I hadn't considered before and has just made taking classes with Ismael intellectually nurturing in ways beyond what you'd expect from just learning a language.

As always, Ismael is a great companion to talk to. He can always find a topic which is of interest to me. He can find a perfect balance between my talking time and his talking time. I can practice a little bit of listening a lot of speaking. I am really satisfied with meeting. For me it is more of a meeting with a friend tham just a lesson, in a very positive way.

Gosto muito das aulas do Ismael em espanhol. Me sinto conversando com um amigo, que faz os assuntos fluirem naturalmente e te da liberdade para falar, ao mesmo tempo que ele e muito gentil e enfatico na correcao de erros cometidos. Recomendo muito!

Muito obrigada, Ismael! He tenido conversaciones muy alegres con el y sus explicaciones son super buenos, y también lo que me gustó más fue el tiempo para repasar las palabras nuevas/pronunciaciones equivocadas que hice yo durante la clase. Eso me ayudaría muchísimo y estoy muy agradecida de verdad!!! Nos vemos pronto y nuevamente muchísimas gracias por tu excelente trabajo!

Ismael desenhou uma aula especifica para o que pretendo fazer e esta me ajudando muito a melhorar meu espanhol e minha comunicacao. Muito bom!

Good guy. Very easy to work with.
