Claudia is a great instructor. She is patient and kind in her teaching and makes you feel comfortable; as learning a language can very intimidating. She skillfully structures the lessons to fit your level of knowledge, and progresses you in your own time and based on how much you have learned. I am happy to have better vocabulary to talk with my grandparents, as that was my main goal!

After taking Spanish in high school and college I find myself still not able to converse as I would like to. Since working with Claudia I am closer than ever to that goal! She is kind, patient and extremely knowledgeable about the language. She not only helps me learn Spanish, but she can explain origins of many words and phrases. She dedicates herself completely to our lessons and provides materials for me to do on my own time to supplement. I've been working with Claudia for over a year now and plan to continue! She is outstanding.

Yes Claudia is great for someone who’s never spoke Spanish she takes her time with you, she teaches you pronunciation spelling breaks down verbs and nouns. And she will not leave you behind. She really truly loves what she does, not only is she a teacher but she’s a student of what she does. If I was to look for a teacher I would hope her name would come up, because she knows what she really is doing. I think her every day and enjoy having the time to learn with her, I know she has more students than me and they must be really thrilled with her as I am. I definitely would recommend Claudia Connell as a Spanish teacher.

Claudia brings great energy to each class. Very patient and personable. Develops the classes and instruction based on your specific needs and learning style. She was very flexible with my schedule and made it and fun for me to learn Spanish. I highly recommend her. Outstanding instructor.

Claudia is a brilliant teacher! Claudia manages to be both warm, friendly and an absolute professional. She is super invested in my learning, encouraging and always plans well structured classes, which focus on my goal to be fluent. It has been such a wonderful experience, I am so pleased to have met Claudia and strongly recommend her!

Claudia is a fantastic teacher. She takes a balanced approach between grammar and conversation. She also works from a book, which is great for me, and provides her own material as well. Claudia does a great job at knowing when to move you ahead or spend more time working on an area you are having trouble with. I am happy I've chosen her and can see the progress already!

Claudia is the best! She is patient, funny and kind in her teaching approach. And she knows her stuff. I have been trying to learn Spanish for a while now and I am finally really making progress thanks to Claudia. I highly recommend her. You won't be disappointed. You will learn how to speak Spanish!

I have been taking lessons from Claudia for almost four months and my experience with her has been outstanding. Claudia is an excellent teacher who takes her student's goals and truly makes them her own. When I told her that my goal was to learn Spanish to a conversational level, she described to me what I would need to do in order to obtain that goal.

Here's what I think makes Claudia unique:

* Carefully planned out teaching method. She has a carefully planned out method for teaching Spanish and uses quality materials. She has garnered the best materials and supplemented them with her own. She teaches Spanish in a logical sequence where each step includes material from the previous ones. This has helped me to reinforce the concepts I learned earlier.

* My lessons with her include a mix of grammar, speaking, and listening. It's much easier for me to understand written Spanish than to understand the spoken word or to speak it myself. Claudia makes a point in each lesson to practice speaking and listening to help with this. This has probably been the biggest help to me so far.

* She provides homework customized to my level so I can practice between sessions. Sometimes the homework is an audio recording that she has recorded herself especially for me. The fact that she does this shows how much she cares about her student's success.

* Her patience. She has to be the most patient person I've ever met. Sometimes it takes a while to get a concept or to understand, but she is always happy to repeat herself or slow down. There have been more than a few sessions where she has done this a lot!

* Her encouragement. Learning a new language can be frustrating at times but Claudia is always encouraging and celebrates even the smallest progress.

It seems like there are a lot of Spanish teachers out there who know how to speak Spanish, but I think there are very few who really know how to teach it. Obviously Claudia is a native speaker of Spanish, but she is also an expert teacher. I feel fortunate to have found her and have referred other students to her. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Claudia is an excellent teacher! I was looking for someone who not only speaks Spanish but is also a dedicated teacher and Claudia is the best! She clearly has a ton of experience with teaching and is passionate about helping people to learn Spanish. I have been studying with Claudia weekly for about 6 months and I am making great progress.

I wrote my first review over a year ago. I would like to write another one to say that Claudia is a great teacher. I have been taking classes with her for a while now and I can see the results. She helped me improve my Spanish a lot. She is a very responsible teacher who can keep you motivated and engaged. She offers lots of learning materials so that you are able to practice different skills. I am so glad that I found her. She makes learning Spanish easy! Anastasia

Claudia is such an excellent instructor, I feel very fortunate to learn from her. She works at my pace, communicates really well and provides detailed instructions in helping me understand every aspect of the language. It's only been 2 months and not only can I read Spanish well but I can also make basic conversation when I go places. I'm very pleased I highly recommend her!

This is my first lesson with Claudia. It was really an enjoyable lesson and the time passed quickly with her! Claudia is very friendly teacher and I’ll extend the lesson time to 60 minutes in the next package of her online Spanish lessons.

Muchas gracias Claudia,

Muhammad

I recommend Claudia for Spanish lessons because she is a native Spanish speaker and great Spanish teacher.

Claudia does a great job of explaining many difficult concepts that exist in the Spanish language.

She is a great motivator and constantly gives very helpful tips which encourages weekly improvements.

Claudia is a native Spanish speaker and a great tutor. She is patient, has solid lesson plans, always on time, good assignments and she adjusts really well to my gaps in knowledge. She works very hard to help me in the areas I need help. We do a good blend of learning grammar and structure with practical application.
