Elaine is a very patient tutor.
Elaine has been tutoring Spanish to my 17 yr old son who is taking Spanish through FL Virtual Online to gain a credit to graduate early. He began the course thinking that he did not need to actually "learn" Spanish, he made it about a third of the way through the class before realizing that the online teacher did expect him to actually "learn" how to speak Spanish. I went through WyzAnt and contacted Elaine V. and she has helped him to understand the proper ways to use the verbs and how to form the sentences correctly that the teacher was expecting him to learn from the website. Elaine has been very patient with him, giving him alot of encouragement and trying to show him that learning Spanish may one day aid him with his job search or in life in general. He is the reluctant 17 yr old student not really wanting to learn Spanish but knowing that the Spanish credit is required to graduate from High School one year early. She has made learning the language fun which he was not obtaining from watching and listening to the online tutors. I believe without Elaine helping him to understand the lessons and complete the assignments he would have been forced to drop the Spanish class at about one third of the way through. With Elaine's continued tutoring help I believe he will finish this online Spanish class and if he is required to take another credit of Spanish next year, she will aid with that and maybe one day he will need to speak Spanish because at 17 you never know where life will take you.

Quickly assesses what skills you need to improve
Elaine has a keen understanding of how people learn new languages. She quickly hones in our where you need to improve and breaks down the why and how into easy steps. Patient and encouraging to ensure you continue to try and improve. From the first lesson I learned better pronunciation, word identification and grammar tips to improve my understanding and enjoyment of Spanish! Highly recommend to all skill levels.

Patient and Passionate
Elaine continues to help me learn verbs with a focus on the irregular verbs. She is passionate, patient and professional and I am glad to be working with her. I also appreciate the cultural tips and her words of encouragement.

My experience with Elaine
Elaine is a very patient tutor. The way that she explains, for me, it is easier to understand the subject. She has worked a lot with me on the conjugation of verbs. That is my biggest opportunity to speak English.

Fantastico!!
Just finished my first lesson in Spanish. She is a very thorough teacher and very kind. Today we got through part of chapter 1 with masculine and feminine nouns. She is helping me with a few pronunciations and the breakdown of certain words. I look forward to working with her.

Another great lesson with Elaine!
As always, a lesson with Elaine is fun, personable, and educational. We spend some time in Spanish conversation and then we move into specific areas like vocab, grammar, etc - geared to my ability and learning level.

Understanding and detailed
Taught me the foundation of the language and how it is used. She was patient and helped me when I was not understanding the process. Elaine understands both English and Spanish which makes it very helpful to understand the accent.
