    Paola is a very personable, encouraging teacher! Her ability to write in both English and Spanish is extremely impressive, and I have seen a lot of growth in my songwriting skills since I began working with her! If you want a songwriting teacher who will be your number 1 fan and push you to think in new ways, Paola is your best choice!

    Paola is a great teacher. I tend to write in English, but we worked together on a Spanish language song a few weeks ago. Paola was able to help me expand on my ideas, and clean the song up in general. She also explained nuances of Spanish grammar and vocabulary in a way that made them easy to apply to the song. Overall, great working with her!
