Bio

As a teacher, I have three important priorities: to help students to improve their English or Spanish communication and comprehension skills, to build their self-confidence in speaking, reading and writing, and to enjoy learning. I care deeply about my students' interests and goals, and that guides what and how we study.

I think that learning should be both interesting and fun. I want my students to love learning as much as I love teaching. I graduated at Universidad Metropolitana, Caracas,...

As a teacher, I have three important priorities: to help students to improve their English or Spanish communication and comprehension skills, to build their self-confidence in speaking, reading and writing, and to enjoy learning. I care deeply about my students' interests and goals, and that guides what and how we study.

I think that learning should be both interesting and fun. I want my students to love learning as much as I love teaching. I graduated at Universidad Metropolitana, Caracas, Venezuela in 1980 with a grade point average of 4.50/5, and graduated with honors in Child Development and Bilingual Studies at Santa Monica College, California, USA.

As a professionally trained ESL teacher, I can teach students all aspects of the English language including speaking, conversation and presentation, reading and listening comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, writing, for Preschool and Elementary students.

I have more than 30 years of teaching experience with children and youth. I am patient, friendly, responsible and dedicated to my students' educational progress and enjoyment of learning.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

My son has really struggled this school year with 2nd year Spanish due to several factors including poor teaching. Maria has done a great job explaining concepts such that my son is feeling more confident and excited about Spanish.

Maria was very patient. Helpful observations and recommendations that would help me learn and speak Spanish fluently . I would surely recommend her to someone who is just learning how to speak Spanish.

Surpassed Expectations!

Maria was well prepared with a fast moving pace for my young son. She kept him engaged throughout the lesson. She took time to explain to me the goals set for him. He is very excited about learning Spanish and becoming bilingual.

Motivating me to learn

Maria pushes me to learn more. She motivates me to learn more. Thank you Maria, it is working. I need more homework.

Focused on My Son's Needs

Maria met with my son to discuss what he is currently learning and what he is having trouble with at this time. According to my son she does a better job explaining Spanish than his teacher. She is easy to listen to and calm. UPDATE: Thanks to Maria my son isn't failing Spanish anymore. He received a B on his midterm! She also helped him complete a lesson using Spanish verbs. He earned a 100! We have been extremely happy with his improvement.
