Carolina Hernandez

I feel so fortunate to have found Carolina. She is the best! Works with me at my level towards my goals. She uses really good materials that are very helpful. I am always happy to have had a lesson with Carolina. Siempre cinco Estrellas!

Outstanding. I chose Carolina because of how clearly she spoke in her video, making it easy for me to understand her. I also was impressed that she is a journalist. I could tell that she was a nice person. She was very helpful and knowledgeable in our first lesson. I'm going begin regular lessons with her immediately.

We did it! Today we completed the last in a series of 90 readings with comprehension questions, which took 14 months. Now I'm reading a PhD thesis in Spanish, even though I was still wondering a few weeks ago whether I was ever going to be able to develop this aptitude. Carolina has such vision, and such persistence, that I believe we can get through anything. Carolina, my gratitude to you is very deep, because you are changing my life.

I often say similar things about my lessons with Carolina, because they're consistently true. She works me hard. I feel like my brain is getting a workout. We pick difficult material and it's slow going, but I'm learning steadily. I'm learning about the legal system in Colombia and the standards of evidence, and I'm not involved in police or legal work--these are simply topics that have caught my interest in looking at other aspects of Colombian social life. Wherever you are in your studies of Spanish, Carolina can take you higher, at whatever pace you're ready for.

Had transmission problems, no fault of Carolina's.

I'm celebrating today because, after 5 years of learning Spanish, I am finally able to read a book intended for adults, in this case a PhD thesis in book form. It's bittersweet because Carolina and I are one page away from finishing a series of 90 readings, a process that has taken 14 months. She knew this series would get me past my limitations long before I did. I suspect I'm a slow student, but the important details are that I got here, and that she knew what to do--as she always does.
