Lucia is very good at providing writing advice and English learning based on my level. She is experienced. After class, she always shares language learning resources with me. I feel very lucky working with her.
I want to say thanks to Lucía. My language skills drastically improved since I have started English classes with her. Writing doesn't scare me anymore, my vocabulary expanded, and I make fewer grammar mistakes while speaking. Moreover, Lucía is a highly intelligent and beautiful human being. I am fortunate to be Lucía's student. Many thanks, Polina M.
Lucia is very knowledgeable, with excellent didactic. She was able to adapt to our busy schedule and tailor the classes to each student need. I would refer her without a doubt.
Lucia has the patience of a saint. My talent for language acquisition is not strong. Lucia gently and patiently worked with me. Lucia's PhD level academic knowledge of language provides a strong foundation for teaching her students another language. Without hesitation, I can recommend Lucia as a Spanish instructor.
My spouse and I took Spanish lessons with Lucia for just over 1 year. She was an awesome tutor and very flexible with our busy work schedules. We were able to quickly learn the basics of Spanish and Lucia provided many great resources to help us build on our learnings. I would highly recommend Lucia to anybody looking for tutor!
Substantial challenges that were a good stretch. Engaging material and good support. A very beneficial experience.
Lucia was well prepared for every lesson with a clear plan and focus which she presented very well in an informal manner.
