Las clases de conversación con Abby son interesantes y divertidas. Abby es muy dulce y paciente y te hace sentir muy cómoda durante la conversación lo cual hace que esta sea muy fluida y que no te sientas mal cuando no sabes algo o cuando te equivocas. Abby sabe español y en ocasiones puede ayudarte a encontrar la palabra que buscas durante la conversación. Te corrige durante las clases y también te envía correcciones por escrito al finalizar la clase. Adapta los temas de conversación a tus intereses y los artículos que escoge son interesantes y actuales.
Conversation classes with Abby are interesting and fun. Abby makes you feel very comfortable during the conversation which makes it very smooth and you don't feel bad when you don't know something or when you make a mistake. Abby knows Spanish and sometimes she can help you find the word you are looking for during the conversation. She corrects you during the classes and also sends you written corrections at the end of the class.

我女儿跟着Abbi老师学习快2年了。Abbi老师非常和蔼可亲，和孩子之间的互动非常充分。她一直帮助孩子用自然拼读来锻炼朗读课文，并不是一味的记忆。Abbi老师的课程很有章法，有预习有复习，每个周期内都围绕一个话题展开，可以帮助孩子更快的掌握一个系列的知识。
Sophie很喜欢Abbi老师的课程，我们希望能一直跟着她学下去。
Sophie has been studied with Abbi for almost 2 years. Abbi is very kind and funny. In her class, not only follow, Sophie talked with Abbi very well.
For every lesson, there was preview and review, so Sophie can handle the words and sentence well. For each tophic, Abbi prepared a lot of pictures or songs to help understanding and remember.
We all love Abbi's lesson very well and willing to learn with her all the time.

Abbi is my favorite teacher on italki. She is amiable, supportive, positive. She listens intently and corrects me when needed. Not all teachers do that. Looking forward to the next lesson with her!
