Finding teachers that challenge you in the right ways- making you process new information & asking questions that allow thinking on a deeper level- are extremely valuable. Alicia is one of those with a knack for teaching. Perceptive at meeting you where you stand in learning Spanish, her lessons feel neatly tailored: rather than focusing on level appropriate subjects that interest me that I may be familiar with, she chooses topics that are generally fascinating and feel "up my alley," pushing me beyond my own bubble into intriguing topics I wouldn't have encountered without her. After class she passes on the notes of words that were new or tripped me up for my own reference. There are always verbal and written components. Although it never feels overly formal, it is an exceptionally well-organized and well-curated class with excellent content and feedback.

One year!!! This week marks one year since I started taking classes with Alicia. She is the reason I have been able to reach an advanced level of speaking, and I am so proud of how far I've come. Alicia is a great conversationalist. Right from the start I could tell that she was personable and funny, and it has been that way ever since. Sometimes I need to take my time to gather my thoughts, but Alicia is so patient and I never feel rushed. I also love that she writes down each of my errors with corrections on the virtual whiteboard in class and sends them to me after so I can review them on my own. My favorite thing about Alicia's style is that after a little while she started to identify my weak areas and crafted lessons specifically tailored to improving those skills, which has helped me sound more natural and fluid. Alicia, thank you for all of your support and encouragement during my Spanish language journey. I'm looking forward to another great year. :)

Always very interesting classes. I regularly feel challenged and also supported in Alicia’s classes.

I highly recommend Alicia as a Spanish teacher. She is super organized and her teaching style is exceptional. Alicia ensures that learning the language is a fun and interactive experience. Her lessons are always engaging, creating a lively atmosphere that makes the learning process enjoyable. Alicia's pedagogical skills are awsome. She teaches just the vocabulary you need to expand your level and explains in a simple and comprehensible manner. Also she creates a supportive environment that boosts confidence in language learning.

Alicia es la mejor enseñante que he encontrado en ITalki. Ella siempre ha planeado una lección divertida y útil. La recomienda mucha.

Las clases con Alicia son muy divertidas! Siempre prepara temas estupendos y tiene varios materiales . Como resultado, nunca te aburres y aprendes rápidamente. Ella también toma notas para que tengas un documento escrito de cada clase y puedas repetir las cosas después. Estoy muy satisfecha! 😇
