Spanish Tutor in Santa Monica

Liliana is the best Spanish teacher I've ever had…read more I came to Liliana after working with a previous Spanish teacher for about 1.5 years. My previous teacher failed me in many ways, but the biggest way was the fact that after 1.5 years of intensive classes and studying (which I had to hugely supplement on my own) I still couldn't speak Spanish. I could translate it, in reading and writing, but I couldn't conversate in it (not unless I'd created scripts and memorized them to make them second nature). I couldn't actually COMMUNICATE in it. Which is exactly why I started Spanish classes in the first place! Among many other things, my previous teacher's perfectionism got in the way of how one naturally and completely learns a new language - which Liliana rectified and I will go into more detail later. Here are the bits of pure gold one gets when working with Liliana (please note: I was very well versed in Spanish grammar and vocabulary before I started with her - I was not starting from scratch): 1. Omg, she's so much fun. She creates characters and tells stories and sings songs and helps you play in Spanish. She brings Spanish off of the pages of the books and homework of your average Spanish teacher and she turns it into this vibrant, fun and memorable experiences one would normally get when living abroad. 2. She focuses on verbs. Verbs are the backbone of any language and she helps you figure out shorts cuts when conjugating new moods and tenses you may have not learned yet. ALSO, if you are traveling and simply use the infinitive of the verb you don't know conjugations for, native Spanish speakers will still be able to understand you! 3. Immersion. This is my ultimate favorite part of Liliana's classes. After the first class or two (and possibly depending on the level you are at when you come in) she speaks to you the entire time in Spanish. It's full immersion. You will be taping each lesson with her and listening to it in between each class and it's pure gold and here's why: she's using the language as it's actually spoken and how it will be spoken to you! You can hear how she uses the verbs and their tenses and moods, how she structures her sentences and her thoughts, and the biggest one: getting comfortable hearing yourself as: tú or usted or ustedes - this is huge purely based on the fact that if you're learning the language from books and homework, you're missing the conversationally reciprocal aspect of the language (and you're almost only thinking in yo.) Liliana has an extensive background in how people learn languages (she used to teach for many years in a top university in Argentina!) and she really makes learning Spanish a fun and successful experience. In about 1.5 months she helped me rewire my Spanish brain to think differently and feel differently about the language and improved my speaking ability and comfort 100%! I can't wait to keep working with her and to see where I'll be in a full years time!

I've been taking lessons with Liliana for about 7 months and I couldn't ask for a better teacher! I…read morethink it's important to learn from a Spanish teacher that is from a Spanish speaking country... it creates a more in depth experience of the culture and mannerisms. Liliana has a very balanced approach to teaching. She makes it a lot of fun while maintaining seriousness and focus. Most importantly she is getting me comfortable SPEAKING Spanish. Liliana is a genuine teacher and I would highly recommend her.

They help me understand my homework and they helped me get into the advanced math class at my…read moreschool.

My son attended this specific Mathnasium location for 10 months. I raised concerns relating to one…read moreof the math tutors directly with the manager months ago and told them that I did not want my son to be tutored by them for some obvious safety concerns. The manager agreed with the concerns I raised and and acknowledged my request. Subsequently, my son was placed with them multiple times and my request was clearly ignored. Recently, new information became available and I raised these same safety concerns directly with the owner who didn't respond to my email. I decided to elevate the matter to the CEO to ensure there was transparency and awareness. It was only when I emailed the CEO (who emailed me back within hours), that I received a response back from the franchise owner saying that they were looking into it. Another 8 days went by to which I had to email him AGAIN to check in. I was completely shocked we had to wait 10 days for a response. The franchise owner finally called us and told us that THERE WAS LITTLE HE COULD DO. There was no detail on what kinds of background checks they undertake. They deliberately ignored my request not to have my child tutored with the individual which is a massive breech of confidence and calls into question how they operate and take safety and the wishes of parents seriously!
