Susan said: I was only able to do half the course as was overseas (UK) for the remaining five sessions. Ana is a great teacher, and it's well worth preparing for each session in advance to get the most out of each session. I would be happy to do this course again to practice my Spanish communication skills.

Susan said: Ana is a great tutor and I enjoyed this class. I prepare in advance so I can participate in the role plays in the break-out rooms and keep up with the pace of the class. The powerpoint slides are very helpful and I always print them out and write notes on them during the class.
