"​I have been looking for a Spanish teacher for a while. When I was recommended Elie and she told me about her background, I knew that I found the right person.I am most interested in Latin America and she tells me a lot about life in Cuba, as well as the differences in their language use and I think it's priceless. It's not something you can Google or read in a book.

 

You either visit the country and immerse yourself in life there or you learn from people with direct, lived experiences. If I could, then I would take more than one class per week. Learning a language is rarely easy, you need to sit down and practice a lot but it's so important who you learn from. With Elie, the classes are fun and rewarding. She motivates and encourages you.

 

Even at the very beginning, when you can hardly utter a few words in Spanish, she makes you feel you are on the right track. It is also very helpful that she is open for questions beyond classes..
