I know that the learning process takes time and encouragement, so I have a lot of patience with my students. I know also that each person is different and will have different needs, so I adapt my approach to each individual. I go the extra mile for my students, and I love to see them succeed and grow in their confidence.

Reviews from others
“Matthew hit it off with Maríe from their first lesson together. And he looks forward to his sessions with her. She is very patient, but also firm when necessary, as Matthew has a tendency to talk a lot and go off topic. He has made great strides in all areas in the two weeks he’s been with Maríe. Thank you!”- Michelle
