    Luisa is so great! Right from the beginning she made me feel comfortable and prepared to begin our Spanish lessons. She’s very thorough, always responsive and openly invites you to text or call her anytime you have questions or need help with an assignment. She is full of life and has such a great spirit about her. Her lessons are thorough and she explains things so we’ll. I would highly recommend Luisa if you’re looking for a Spanish tutor!

    After the very first session with Maria Luisa I went straight to buying a package, now we meet every week. I’ve had four or five sessions so far and my Spanish is improving. She’s always accessible during the week to chat or answer questions and she encourages you to send her messages to practice outside of class. I never feel rushed or time crunched in the sessions, more like I’m talking to a friend. They’re fun and light and Maria Luisa is awesome! If anyone is looking for a Spanish tutor you won’t be sorry.

    She has been SO easy to work with! I have been using Duolingo app but wanted to learn more about verb conjugation and the “rules” of Spanish so I could become fluent! She’s very professional and gets back to you immediately! She has been amazing so far and I can’t wait to see how far we get!
