Ricky is one of if not the best teachers I've ever had, he finds ways to take lessons and make them fun while at the same time taking difficult tasks and finding ways to make them simpler and easier. he has taken things I've struggled with and found new ways to explain them that make sense. he is always fun and encouraging, always pushing you to improve while also being understanding and patient
10/10 would recommend

Ricky is a great teacher! He’s excellent at facilitating interesting conversations and encouraging me to speak while clearly explaining Spanish grammar rules that I’ve struggled with for years. I now feel more confident when using Spanish in the real world! - Highly recommend
