Perfect! I feel so lucky that Karen has been my Spanish tutor the past 10 months!! I have improved from knowing a few words to meeting Colombians here in Australia and being able to hold a conversation in Spanish! I found learning on Skype with a shared Google doc to be more useful than in person because Karen writes down all the vocab that I don’t know yet and all my grammatical errors in the doc and then we work through them. It can be hard to guess what word is being said sometimes so seeing it typed really helps me. I truly learned more with Karen in my first 3 weeks than in an entire semester with el patio language school. Highly recommend!!!!!

I've been taking lessons with Karen for about a year now. She's the best. I look forward to our lessons every week. At this point my lessons feel more like catching up with a friend once a week but I get to improve my Spanish at the same time. We mostly do conversation practice completely in Spanish these days, but in the past we've also worked on specific grammar concepts and vocabulary. Whatever you need to work on to improve your Spanish, Karen will adjust your lessons to help you with that. Wether you are a beginner in need of more structured classes or you just want to practice speaking with a friendly and patient person, I highly recommend her.
