Raciel is a phenomenal teacher. He's well prepared to meet you at your level, provide materials, homework, and feedback. I know multiple people taking classes with him and everyone is having a great experience. Can't recommend enough.

I began lessons with Raciel knowing only light vocabulary words and key phrases. In 40 lessons of working with him, I can now communicate independently and feel prepared to go live in Mexico and receive further schooling there. I have learning disabilities with language and Raciel is a very kind, patient, and encouraging tutor. It is obvious he is not only passionate about the Spanish language itself but also teaching and sharing his language and culture with others. He strikes the perfect balance between pushing me to improve and giving the support I need to get there. Every lesson felt purposeful, and I felt stronger and more confident speaking each lesson. When he would notice I was having anxiety or issues he was quick to notice, explain, and slow down in the way that was best for me. If you want a tutor who truly tailors each lesson to YOU, your personality, your level, and your interests, Raciel is that guy. I truly could not recommend him more highly.

Raciel es excelente y muy paciente. Las clases son divertidas, relajadas pero tambien enfocadas. Eso ayuda a mantener la atencion. Te ayuda a espresar tus ideas de diferentes formas. Lo recomendio mucho para las personas que estan aprendiendo espanol.

Language learning is a slow journey and Raciel is an excellent guide to navigate the wild adventure that is Spanish conjugation. I have been learning with Raciel for over a year and have noticed a considerable improvement in receptive understanding and my ability to communicate. Raciel has the patience of a saint while I stumble through sentences and always explains why one phrase or structure may be better to use. He is methodical and thoughtful in his explanations and uses a combination of traditional homework, on screen text to practice and discuss, and good old conversation. If you’re looking for a great teacher, Raciel is your guy!

Hoy en clase, hablamos de principio a fin sobre una película que vi y también sobre mi préstamo. Me esforcé por hablar y por encontrar otras palabras cuando no podía decir lo que quería expresar. Con eso, siento que mi español mejora cada vez más gracias a nuestras lecciones. Raciel fue muy paciente y me dio otras maneras de decir las cosas. Gracias por todo.

Raciel is a great teacher. He is perceptive and insightful into my learning style and needs. I appreciate that he purposefully uses topics that I enjoy to teach me new vocabulary and grammar. He's very encouraging and patient and happy.
