Hi, I'm Marlene! I live in Puebla City, one of the main cities in Mexico. I studied architecture and music. I love all topics related to animals, nature, art, psychology, and philosophy. I love to be learning new things; that's why I enjoy learning from my students, and in each class they learn something new. I have taught music and Spanish to children, youth, and adults, so I know the challenges of learning a different language.

I normally leave my reviews in Spanish, as this is part of the learning process. But I wanted to leave one review in English. Marlene is a wonderful Spanish teacher. She prepares for every class, and she makes corrections with kindness. She remembers errors from past classes and helps her student learn, slowly in my case, from earlier mistakes. But Marlene is so much more than a wonderful Spanish teacher. Marlene involves either a video or an article in Spanish with a theme. Sometimes these themes are light. But often these themes are informative about things that matter in life, whether discussed in Spanish or in any other language. I have learned much more than language from Marlene. I cannot recommend a teacher more highly. Try her packet of five classes, because after five classes, you too will realize that you are learning Spanish as a byproduct of a more important education.

Me encanta clase con Marlena! Ella es una buena persona! Hablamos sobre todas cosas. Ella me corrige cuando estoy cometiendo errores. Ella no va a permitirme seguir con lo mismo errores. He estado mejorando mucho. Ustedes deberían tomar clases con Marlene!

I highly recommend Marlene. She always has thought provoking topics to discuss, and sends me interesting links to videos and other material. Marlene is punctual and organized with a friendly message the day before our call. She corrects me, but not overly to the point where it becomes a distraction. And really the hour just flies by and I don't even realise I've ben talking in Spanish for an hour.

Marlene is so easy to talk to, and when I am speaking but not sure how to say someting, she gives me the time to think about the word, verb or conjugation. But if I need her help, she is right there to explain things. My conversations with her have allowed me to be more relaxed instead of nervous. I know I still make mistakes, but the main thing is to be able to talk, or tell a story, without feeling inadequate. On my recent trip to Mexico, I felt more confident to ask questions and also to ask the speaker "otra vez, más despacio por favor." I know that learning a language takes practice, practice, practice, and Marlene encourages me to learn at my own pace. She is so nice and friendly and patient. I feel like I have a friend in her; someone I can share stories with, or talk about movies, TV, travel, history, culture. I definitely plan on continuing with Marlene, and I would encourage any student to see if she's the right fit for you.
