"A very dedicated teacher with the charisma to handle kids"

Juan Carlos Vasquez

I accompanied my ten year old son everyday to his classes. It was his first time taking Spanish classes, and I was afraid he would find the lessons too slow after spending the morning in soccer camp. However, Ms. Patricia made them interesting and he enjoyed his time learning.

The area where the school is located is very safe and close to transportation, restaurants and coffee shops. He also enjoyed the walks in the park to practice vocabulary. If I have to recommend something it would be to create programs with emphasis in specific activities (in this case soccer) where the students learn vocabulary, phrases and idioms used frequently in that environment.
