TESTIMONIALS FROM STUDENTS
My husband and I are moving to Costa Rica in December and took a series of classes from Monica to make our transition a little easier. It was a wonderful experience! She really spends time concentrating on each student's individual needs. Monica has been very patient with us (it has been 30 years since I had taken Spanish in college and my husband has never studied a foreign language.) I am truly amazed at our comprehension level after 13 weeks of her superb instruction! Granted, we're certainly not fluent, but we will be able to at least communicate our basic needs once we move. She has given us the confidence to go forth and conduct our daily business in Spanish and the desire to make this a life-long learning adventure. Monica, you are truly a gem!

Monica is a highly skilled and disciplined teacher. She knows how to motivate her students. She's not a "clock watcher". She's generous with both her time and her concern for each individual in her class. I've recomended her to friends and will continue to do so. Arlen T. San Marcos
Excellent Spanish classes and I will recommend it to friends. It helped me in speaking, writing and understanding Spanish. The teacher is great, responsive, patient and very flexible. I have learned so much Spanish since I started. The lessons were diverse and interesting and she explained grammar in a way that made it very easy for us to understand. Kelly C., Doctor, La Jolla
I've learned more in the past 2 months than in 2 years of college Spanish. The teacher is excellent, very patient, great energy, and adjusting well to the different abilities of the students. Paul B. student, Del Mar
Since I started I learned tremendous amount and had a lot of fun. Overall I think this program is superior by far than others. I can't wait for my next Spanish class! Mark G. Business owner, Carlsbad
Monica is an excellent Spanish teacher. She is fluent in English, and has a comprehensive knowledge of both the grammatical structure and day-to-day details of the language. She has obviously had a lot of experience at teaching people spanish and obviously enjoys it herself. Alice R. Business owner, Carlsbad
My teacher is very flexible in structuring the lessons to my requirements, providing relevant homework in order that the 2 hours spent with her is as productive as possible. She is a very patient, helpful, she makes the lessons fun and tailors them to my learning needs. I know I have improved a lot through the exercises she assigns and through Spanish articles we have read and discussed together. She is keen on correct pronunciation and doesn't let me get sloppy or develop bad habits. Thank you very much. Nora H., Oceanside
I really feel like I learned an incredible amount in the last month. The teacher is very friendly and makes me feel very comfortable in the class. The other two students are very friendly and I feel very happy and enjoing every minute. I'd recommed it to anyone who takes Spanish language acquisition seriously and wants to learn in a comfortable atmosphere. Emily B. Teacher, San Diego
This is a terrific learning experience, the teacher is native and real nice. Before I started I was self conscious about saying anything in Spanish and my vocabulary was limited. The conversation class pushed me to speak and the teacher correct my grammar when I need it, I am learning a lot and very quickly. Kathleen R. Nurse, Oceanside
The teacher is very smart and competent. I really enjoy my class and feel I've come a long way. My conversation went from 0 to being able to express myself. I've adquired great confidence. Thank you. Mary S. Architect, Poway
