Here’s a review you might use: We couldn’t be happier with Ms. Velasquez! She has helped my 13-year-old not only improve her understanding and fluency in Spanish but also build confidence. Her lessons are engaging, tailored to my daughter’s level, and the tutor always finds ways to make learning fun, whether through interactive exercises or relatable examples. My daughter genuinely looks forward to each session, and we’ve seen real progress. The tutor is patient, encouraging, and skilled at making a challenging language feel accessible. Highly recommend!

Ms. Velazquez is a great teacher. I am receiving private tutoring in Spanish in preparation for a move to South America. She is always on time, prepared, and has a large selection of teaching materials. Ms. Velazquez is patient and encouraging. She gives me time to figure things out. But if I need help, she corrects me without being discouraging. I look forward to continuing my studies in Spanish with her. I am learning a lot!

Patricia is a kind, supportive, creative, and flexible tutor. She got to know my Spanish needs quickly and had new activities each time we met to support me in my ability to communicate and understand Spanish as a teacher working with many Spanish speaking families. I highly reccomend her for anyone in need of a Spanish tutor.
