Carlos

Carlos is a practical teacher who works with examples of your daily life to create an association between what you are learning and your native language. He both challenges and supports you through your learning session. I am learning a lot and having fun at the same time.

Wow... 46 lessons! Carlos is an intelligent, interesting, and thoughtful conversation partner who is adept at describing complex ideas in multiple ways. This allows us to keep our conversations almost entirely in Spanish. We work off of a shared Google Doc during our sessions where he takes note of new vocabulary and drills me on grammar--these notes make a great study tool! He also make frequent use of screen sharing to give meaning to new or complex ideas. I have found our weekly sessions to be of great value, and I look forward to them every time. ¡Gracias, Carlos! ¡Nos vemos pronto!

Carlos continues to build on previous lessons, making each lesson more difficult and using visual aids to help each point stick in your long term memory. When I first signed up, I expected to just talk to someone each lesson and learn a few things. But Carlos has exceeded my expectations, providing organized lessons that continually build on each other.

I really like Carlos! His lessons are challenging and structured. I feel like I can think in coherent sentences. I’ve already started to notice a difference after a couple of lessons. The practice is really great and he’s great at providing feedback. I really hope to continue to study with him.

My first lesson with Carlos was not at all as intimidating as I thought it would be. He made me feel very comfortable and it was a natural, flowing conversation. Carlos is obviously a trained teacher and is very prepared and can decipher the needs of his students as he works through the lesson. I will definitely be continuing my journey of learning Spanish with Carlos!

I like his lessons. They move a bit quick, and sometimes I don’t hear that well from a hearing loss. But I feel focused in what I’m learning and that feels great!
