Introduction
I was born and raised in Montréal, QC, Canada, where I grew up in a multilingual environment, speaking Spanish, French & English. I am fluent in Spanish, and growing up with close friends from different Latin American countries, I developed an understanding and love for several cultures including the Peruvian, Dominican, Cuban, and many more. I have also spent time in Spain, as well as several Latin American countries (Dominican Republic, Cuba, Brazil, Mexico, Colombia), where I developed an even greater love for not just Spanish, but also the differences in cultures to prepare me to be an ideal tutor for students interested in different types of dialects, speaking patterns, and more. I have a bachelor's degree in Linguistics & Translation. The study of Linguistics has helped deepen my understanding of phonetics, phonology, semantics, syntax and more --all important components to properly teach Spanish. I am passionate about the Spanish language and the cultures that surround it. Nothing makes me happier than passing along this same passion to my students, and watching them fall in love with the language I love.

My goal with Sara was to get to a point where I could be somewhat conversational. She helped me to reach my goal. The tools she introduced to me were very helpful. I feel like have come a long way to establishing a very good Spanish foundation. Due to losing my job I had to shorten my number of lessons. However I plan to resume my lessons very soon and I will request Sara to finish what she started with me. Therefore I strongly recommend Sara. You will be very satisfied

I bought three packages of 4 lessons each for family members as Christmas gifts. They have all told me great things about their lessons with Sara and we’re all get happy for this gift. It was very easy working with Sara and and they all had a great time

Sara is such a great teacher. She is very patient and knowledgeable. Her lesson plans are easy enough to follow, but challenging enough to keep you engaged. I’m so glad that I have found her!

Working g with Sara has been a great experience. I study with her twice/week and she is always prepared with a challenging yet rewarding curriculum. You keeps the class fun and light while covering alot of material. I couldn't ask for a better tutor and is why I continue you work with her.
