I’ve been speaking Spanish everyday…  the confidence you gave me has really flourished here [in Mexico] and I’ve been able to hold conversations and get around pretty much everywhere thanks to your approach to teaching and helping me develop! :)

Victoria is an excellent teacher. I had been learning Spanish for over a year on my own before starting with Victoria and had a reasonable grasp on grammar but my listening skills were terrible. Since starting with Victoria my conversational and listening skills have dramatically improved. Victoria gets me talking solely in Spanish for the whole hour. She gives me time to articulate my thoughts and never rushes me. It is like talking non stop to a friend in Spanish for a whole hour. Fantastic teacher who knows how to tailor her lessons to the individual’s needs.

For my job I needed to improve my Spanish skills from non-existent to European level B (intermediate) within a year. Apart from taking a language course with the OU I also signed up for private tuition with Victoria. Those sessions have definitely been worth my money and time as they were tailored to my needs at all times. María would always go the extra mile to make each meeting worthwhile, interesting and enjoyable. I have succeeded to get a Grade 2 pass after a year of intense learning with and from María but even more importantly I have come to love the language and culture as well. ¡Muchas gracias, Victoria! :)

“Victoria is an excellent teacher. Her lessons are always well prepared, stimulating and well balanced. Her sense of humour and relaxed manner remove any inhibitions one may have about speaking Spanish and her lessons are a joy to attend!” VJ

“I have been having lessons with Victoria since June (2014), once, sometimes twice, a week with the main objective to improve my Spanish listening and speaking skills, especially with day to day topics that I can actually use whilst in Spain.  We have also covered grammatical aspects outside of the usual night-school curricula.

The lessons are structured and varied, and nicely informal with the use of text, audio and video exercises.  I am conscious of improvements all round and am able to attempt conversation with much more confidence.  Also my reading, and consequently vocabulary is so much better.

To sum up, studying with Victoria is rewarding and has certainly increased my enthusiasm towards learning the language.” Tony

“Victoria is an experienced, well organised and engaging tutor. We are learning in a small group of three which she helped us organise. We are all at slightly different levels and are learning for different purposes but I feel Victoria has managed to accommodate our varied needs well.” Dominika

“We are a family of three and have been coming for lessons for just under a year. The lesson is in a friendly, no pressure environment and Victoria is very patient and attentive. Our knowledge and speaking of the Spanish language has increased tremendously and we now have the confidence to communicate when on holiday in Spanish speaking countries. We would recommend Victoria to all.” Nikki

“Victoria is an excellent teacher who works with patience, enthusiasm and humour. I thoroughly enjoy her lessons, which are varied, interesting and move at a good pace. Lessons are given in Spanish, there is constant speech time and room to question. These are the best Spanish lessons I have ever had.” Bea

“I really enjoy Victoria’s lessons; the atmosphere is friendly and supportive and there is plenty of opportunity to ask questions. Victoria makes a real effort to ensure that the lessons are varied and to tailor them to the needs of her students. They have given me a lot more confidence to speak Spanish when I’m on holiday. Thanks, Victoria:-)” Chris
