Thank you to the best Spanish Teacher I ever had
“We as a group at our company had the privilege to have Mr. Jose Ramirez as our Spanish teacher. We are all very pleased with this experience, his pedagogical methods, dedication and professionalism. I very much recommend Mr. Ramirez services as a Spanish teacher. He is one of the best teacher I ever had. Because of him and his teaching methods I am able to write this comment in Spanish. Thank you Mr. Ramirez.”

“When we met, I was a monoglot of 52 years of age - and left-brained - a real challenge for Jose. I now consider myself an Intermediate student who can confidently read and write in Spanish - and I am able to express myself verbally using simple sentences. I now spend most of my Spanish practice listening, talking and reading aloud to develop fluency. Jose keeps the learning fun and adapts well to the changing needs of his students. If you still struggle with when to use estar and ser, para and por, and other "tricky" parts of the language - you need to call Jose!”

“Jose is an excellent teacher. He is very patient with his students and is always willing to take suggestions from his students to improve the classes. I highly recommend Spanish Language 4 Business as it has improved my Spanish greatly over the last two years.”

“Jose has been my daughter’s Spanish teacher for several years now and I could not be happier with the progress that they have made. He has an effective teaching method that makes it easy for my daughter to learn and he is very attentive to her strengths and weaknesses in the language. Over the course of these past years, I have seen her language abilities improve and progress to a higher level. I would definitely recommend 5/5!”

I currently take Jose's Spanish classes he offers online. I recommend them to anybody, even if online is not your thing. Jose's patience is unmatched and he goes into great depths of the Spanish language. I'm about at least a month in and I take it four times a week. So far I have noticed my reading, writing. and most importantly my speaking improve dramatically.”

I cannot recommend Spanish Language 4 Business enough! I am a psychologist who works with many monolingual Spanish-speaking families. While I had a lot of previous Spanish language instruction, when I started my current position, I felt the need to brush up on my skills. I have been taking weekly individual classes for the past ~1 year, and have benefited immensely from working with Jose Ramirez. The classes work perfectly with my schedule, and are tailored to my level. That means, Jose often works with me on grammatical structures or vocabulary I am less familiar with, while broadening my cultural knowledge and Spanish literacy by reading and discussing articles he has found. He takes great care to find readings that apply to my field and/or relate to the clients I see. As a result, I truly enjoy our discussions, and I find Jose to be an incredibly supportive teacher. He is also very diligent in recommending additional resources, and sending vocabulary words to practice via the app, Quizlet. As a result of these classes, I recently passed the exam for bilingual clinicians at my current job (at a level that would allow me to begin the process of becoming a certified translator). Moreover, my highest scores were in the areas of cultural knowledge and fluency (meaning the ability to respond as a native speaker might). Thus, as I said at the start of this post, I cannot recommend Spanish Language 4 Business enough!”

I've been studying Spanish with Jose for a few months now and I can't emphasize how great my experience has been. I'm a Latina raised in the states with a decent Spanish comprehension base, but I unfortunately never applied this to my daily language usage which left my Spanish speaking ability lacking (parents never spoke it at home). I searched for a Spanish teacher that could instruct me in a customizable way seeing as I'm no novice, although I needed help being able to keep up with my professional counterparts that are fluent in business level Spanish. Jose provides easy instruction, offers interactive exercises and we engage in topical conversations as well for optimal practice. We also read a lot which, if you've ever been taught anything, is paramount to fundamental learning. I get my lessons online via an online classroom that Jose instructs from. His availability has been convenient for me and I'm happy that I did this. It's never too late to learn a language and to reconnect with your culture, as was the case for me. If you think you don't have time, Jose is extremely flexible with his. Also, I challenge you to commit to two hours per week to invest in yourself and increase your abilities. We can all make time for what we think is worthy and valuable and for me, this is!”

Joy Malakoff Commisioner City of Miami Beach
Sr. Ramirez was my Spanish teacher during my four years as Commissioner of the City of Miami Beach. I needed to speak with our Spanish speaking population in their language. He was an excellent tutor, starting with grammar and building my vocabulary, and quickly moving on to conversation. We read articles in Spanish, translated them, and then talked about the subject matter in Spanish. He also helped me write the speeches I needed for special occasions, especially for several visits to our senior centers, where I was able to communicate with the residents in their language. It was extremely helpful. I recommend Jose Ramirez highly!”

Jose tutored Spanish to my son (10th grader). At the very first hour, my son liked Jose's style of teaching and inspiring. In addition to doing well at school, he developed a great passion towards his Spanish skills. I would greatly recommend him to anybody. Thank you Jose!!!”

Jessica L. Jones, DO Dermatology Resident PGY-2
“It has been such a pleasure to work with Señor José as I strive to become fluent in Spanish. Being a medical resident, I thought it was important to be able to communicate with my patients better- not only during my training here in Miami but for my future practice.
He is kind, has patience, and is always encouraging. Señor José has such a relaxed disposition; he takes the stress out of learning a new language. All material is provided and scheduling is flexible. He offers in-person lessons or video chat lessons. Goals can be tailored towards wanting to learn Spanish for personal/social reasons or for more professional reasons. Overall, he is such a good person and a great teacher. I give him the highest recommendation to those seeking a Spanish tutor. Señor José is molding me into a better physician with each lesson. I am very happy to have him as my teacher”

“I can’t say enough great things about José! He was a wonderful tutor and had a gentle ease about him that made me feel comfortable practicing a new language. José took time to explain everything he taught me and challenged me in a way that wasn’t overwhelming. He encouraged me to push myself and to not only learn the language but also the various Spanish cultures. I would highly recommend José if you are looking to learn the Spanish language. ¡Muchas gracias, José!”

“Jose was my Spanish teacher off and on for over two years. I can’t recommend him enough as a Spanish teacher. Super patient, the books used are great for beginners and although I initially did in person classes with him transitioned to the online classes. They were just as effective. Highly recommend Jose!”
