About Judy


Bio

I am a native Spanish speaker who has studied the language extensively. I learned Spanish in my home and studied it formally throughout my college years. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Spanish with a teaching emphasis and a minor in Portuguese.

I continued to study Spanish at Georgetown University where I received a Master's Degree in Spanish Linguistics. Both Georgetown and SDSU prepared me for my career, but not only as a teacher of a language, but as a language learner, as well....

I am a native Spanish speaker who has studied the language extensively. I learned Spanish in my home and studied it formally throughout my college years. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Spanish with a teaching emphasis and a minor in Portuguese.

I continued to study Spanish at Georgetown University where I received a Master's Degree in Spanish Linguistics. Both Georgetown and SDSU prepared me for my career, but not only as a teacher of a language, but as a language learner, as well. This theoretical and practical knowledge easily translated into the classroom environment.

I have taught middle and high school Spanish. In addition, I have taught adults at the college level. Most recently, I taught intensive Spanish to government and military personnel. I am quite knowledgeable regarding the requirements for the government's language proficiency requirements and with the best techniques to aid in becoming more fluent.

In addition to my teaching experience, I have been a tutor since I was in high school and have continued to tutor into my adult life. I have tutored middle and high schoolers, college students and adults learning for pleasure and/or their careers.

As a teacher, I am familiar with the most effective teaching methodologies. As a tutor, I know how to tailor-make lesson plans to facilitate learning for each individual student. Language learning should be fun, engaging and about you, the learner. I look forward to helping you learn and enjoy Spanish and Spanish culture as much as I do!

While many tutors offer tutoring in various subjects, I strictly offer tutoring in my field, Spanish. Of course as a trained teacher I can assess a student, offer advice about organization and study habits, but I strictly tutor in the Spanish Language. I am not a jack-of-all-trades. I am a Spanish Teacher and my entire career has been dedicated to becoming a better Spanish Instructor. You will find few that are as dedicated to the teaching of the Spanish Language as I am.

Wonderful and very good at what she does

I am starting a PhD program in the fall and I want to become fluent in Spanish as it will help my career. I also want to be able to speak to my children in Spanish. Judy has been fantastic at helping me reach my goals. I have improved very quickly and I am very happy with my progress. Judy uses clear strong teaching methods and she makes me feel comfortable which makes it much easier to try new words and go outside your comfort zone I couldn't be happier with Judy and I would recommend her to anyone. I always look forward to our sessions.

Great tutor

Conversational Spanish, with feedback on grammar and vocabulary.The classes are enjoyable and the time goes by in a flash. The courses provide me a chance to work on the material I study between classes.

Great kickoff meeting

Judy appeared to do an excellent job assessing my son's skill level in this first lesson. After a brief family discussion, she focused on talking in depth with him for the rest of the hour. He was very comfortable with her approach and was given clear direction on what to work on next.

Amazing Spanish Tutor!

I can't recommend Judy highly enough! My daughter is so happy and relieved to have such great help for her Spanish 5 class. She feels excited again about her studies and Judy has taken the stress out of her homework each night. Thank you Judy!

Tracy, 4 lessons with Judy

Great Spanish tutor

Judy really went to a lot of effort to find out what my son's strengths and weaknesses were so she could narrow in on gaps in his knowledge. She maximizes her time during the tutoring sessions and leaves the student with a very clear goal for the following session. She is very encouraging during the sessions to build up my son's confidence.
