Nicolle

Nicolle teaches the way that I most like which is everything is in Spanish and if I don't know a word, she shows me through images on the internet or describes it in a way I understand. This really helps me think in Spanish so I can come up with what I want to say quicker instead of trying to think of the English words then the Spanish equivalents. She is a fantastic teacher and it is clear she spends a lot of time on preparing her lessons. I am taking her class on learning more about El Salvador because I have more than a few neighbors from El Salvador and there are a lot of folks from that country here where I live and I would like to know more about the country to help understand what they have been going through and what things are like there, and maybe we can have conversations about those things. The classes are extremely helpful, interesting, informative, and consistently interactive with games and other activities like putting yourself in the place of someone from El Salvador.

Me encantan las clases con Nicolle. Siempre hay un tema para conversar. Las actividades son divertidas y me ayudan mucho en la práctica verbal del español. Lo recomiendo mucho, especialmente si tienes un nivel intermedio o más alto.

Gran primera clase con Nicolle. Fue muy dinámica y enérgica, y propone un juego muy divertido en el que contaba diferentes historias y había que adivinar cuáles eran verdaderas, cuáles falsas y cuáles eran de otra persona. Tengo ganas de tomar más clases con ella pronto!

This was just my first lesson but I believe it was the best lesson I have had so far - I tried Italki about a year ago but decided I wasn't quite ready to start speaking. I still make a number of mistakes but Nicolle completely gets rid of the 'nerves' factor with her unique energy and way of turning the classes into fun conversations. I will definitely be back for more lessons as long as she is offering !

Nicolle was extremely engaged, tailored the lesson to my needs and my goals and organized a very fun class. Looking forward to the next lesson!

Nicolle is a very fun teacher. I love my classes with her. The activities are amazing and get me thinking in Spanish. I feel fully confident speaking even though I still make a lot of mistakes. She is very encouraging and helpful.
