Raciel Hernández 💫

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 is an excellent Spanish teacher. He understands the parts of speech very well and knows how to explain them (we converse in Spanish; however, I believe he could teach a relative beginner). He is a good conversationalist and has a good grasp of what my needs are. He has been my teacher for 5 months and I highly recommend him!

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.

Raciel is a great teacher who balances conversation and Spanish practice with structured lessons and activities. He is encouraging, positive, and attentive. We’ve been working together for several months and I would highly recommend him for Spanish learners looking to level up their language skills. I always look forward to class and his personalized approach and calm and positive attitude make every class a great experience.

Raciel is a great teacher. He’s very patient and easy to talk to. Recommend.

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!
