Micky is INCREDIBLE! She is so patient, kind and genuinely loves teaching her students. Micky makes learning languages so much fun and she always makes sure that we discuss relevant topics that interest us to keep us engaged.

Micky makes learning interesting adding music(Latin songs) and talking about food and customs of South America.

Amazing teacher!!!

Mikey is first of all a wonderful and loving person, and secondly she is very professional and passionate about teaching her students. I would highly recommend Mikey to anyone of any age that wants to learn Spanish and have a good time doing it.

Micky is an excellent teacher. She is patient and knowledgeable and can explain the “why”. She teaches the correct way to say and write things and always corrects my language mistakes in a supportive, non-judge mental way that makes me want to keep trying. She is creative and she makes learning fun!

I had a privilege of taking Spanish classes as a part of my corporate program. Great experience from day one. Micky has many years of teaching experience, and is a teacher, not just a native speaker. I liked her structured approach, attention to each student and patience to go over important parts over and over.

I had many years of learning languages (with good and bad and not at all teachers) and always appreciate when a teacher is has formal pedagogical education, has deep knowledge of the subject, able to explain complicated topics in simple words, knows common pitfalls and ready to work harder there, and most of all, has passion for what he or she does. If you are like me, I would strongly recommend Micky. My one of the best second language instructors (trust my 25+ years of learning languages)

Micky is a very patient Spanish instructor. It was her understanding of how I learn that helped me absorb the material and gain confidence. I'd highly recommend Micky to anyone wishing to learn Spanish.

She is very knowledgeable. Loves her work and her students. Very well educated. Very personable. Connect with her students and give them the best guidance. All her students love and respect her. Has a very well established teaching method.

I worked with Micky for two years and she is the best Spanish teacher I ever had. She helped me prepare for the AP Spanish exam as a freshman in high school without taking an accredited course and I received a 5 on the exam because of her. She was always patient and really made sure I felt comfortable with my speaking and writing. I highly recommend Micky!

Micky is an excellent teacher. I started from zero and have studied with her for the past 2 plus years. Her knowledge of English is far better than mine and it really helps in learning Spanish. We are in conversation classes now, and she is awesome as I bungle words. She uses helpful examples to correct my grammar and teach me why. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I loved having Micky as my Spanish teacher! I was with Micky for nearly two years. She is funny, extremely knowledgeable, kind, patient, has the best examples and explanations to make anyone understand the most complicated of topics like grammar. If my commitments at home didn’t need me to stop, I would still be taking lessons from Micky!
I have had other tutors before, but Micky is just the best!!

Micky is an Excellent teacher. I have been taking Spanish class with her for many years. I like very much her teaching style, is very challanging and fun.Thanks a lot Micky

I have been taking a lesson from Micky since 2019. I can't think of a better teacher than Micky! She doesn't waste any time, gives us a very detailed explanation regarding the grammars, expressions and everything. And more importantly, she is a fun teacher!

Micky has been my elementary age son's Spanish teacher for about 4 years both in person and virtually. Micky does a phenomenal job creating engaging curriculum as well as building conversational skills and confidence. Micky is also very dedicated. For example, Micky shows up on time each week and, come to think of it, has never missed a lesson in 4 years. We are extremely thankful that we found Micky!

Micky is not only an excellent Spanish teacher, she is also a wonderful person to know. She knows how to teach while making her classes studious, interactive and fun. I have been following her classes for over two years and I just keep progressing!

As a current student, I feel my experience with Micky has been the most helpful during my language-learning journey. I can’t imagine a more dedicated and knowledgeable person to teach me other than Micky!

Her teachings go beyond common phrases and words and give an in-depth understanding to how Spanish is spoken in real life. I have already improved so much in these first 7 months. I can’t wait to see how I progress as I continue as her student!

My spanish comprehension and confidence has increased significantly since I have been a student of Micky's. Her lessons are very well organized and delivered in an easy-to-understand manner. She takes time to break down new concepts, provide examples, and practice with our peers in a relaxed format that is engaging and fun! She also provides real world articles and current events to discuss (so we can use our Spanish in a practical setting, not just a textbook). I look forward to my classes and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn Spanish!

She is always well prepared, and constantly challenging us. She makes learning fun. She has a very upbeat personality!!

Micky is an incredible Spanish instructor. She challenges you, but in a very encouraging and welcoming way. You will definitely learn a lot from her!

She is knowledgeable both in Spanish language teaching (grammar, etymology) and the literary canon in general. She is an established writer herself. The conversation is never dull. She is also flexible and accommodating. I highly recommend her.
