WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

NIKKI

Mother of a 3 years old student

My family loves our lessons with Spanish Desde Casa. Cristina's teaching style is playful, fun, and interactive, perfect for keeping my busy three-year-old H engaged (along with her one-year-old little brother, who sometimes tags along)! Since starting weekly lessons, H has learned an incredible amount of Spanish- she can sing full songs and often will tell me what items are in Spanish throughout the day, unprompted. And she is understanding Spanish more and more each week. We love our Spanish lessons and wholeheartedly recommend Cristina as a teacher.

KELSEY

Mother of a 3 and 4 years old students

My kids, age 3 & 4, and I have been taking classes for about 8 weeks. My kids are picking up on words, phrases, and songs that they didn't know previously. As a parent I also like participating in the class because I'm able to practice throughout the week with my girls. We've had a great experience! 

BECKY

Mother of a 5 and 7 years old students

We have been working with Cristina and Spanish Desde Casa for over 6 months now and my kids really enjoy it. They look forward to it each week and are regularly incorporating Spanish words into their day to day vocabulary. Cristina keeps it fun and uses relevant themes each week to keep the kids interested and engaged. My two year old, who is not in the class, also tries to join in and is picking up on Spanish words just from listening in. It’s been a great experience for us and we highly recommend it.

"I was a classical dance teacher for 8 years, and in my Spanish classes for children, I aim to convey a lot of energy. I draw inspiration from the Montessori method. I don't want students to be still in class; instead, I want them to learn through movement, play, dance... I always tailor the classes to the students' level and age, ensuring a personalized and engaging learning experience."
