Andrés Montoya

As someone who has taken almost 100 lessons with Andrés, I want to leave feedback. I think it goes without saying that the fact that I’ve spent almost 100 hours with him is because he’s a really good teacher. His energy creates an environment where I feel safe making mistakes +feel receptive to his feedback as he politely provides corrections. He is very engaging which makes the hour go by quickly and there’s never awkward silence— the second that a topic feels like there’s no more to discuss, he presents a new question that continues the conversation. He’s very personable (if you chose to open up with him- he doesn’t pry on my personal life) and remembers what’s going on in my life-even weeks later and asks how things are going w it. His classes are very dynamic and I’ve done many activities with him from conversation, describing photos in Spanish in a shared google doc, played games, shared screen and worked on a Spanish learning app. I could continue but there is a 1000 word limit.

As always, the session was fantastic! He is always insightful, helpful, and supportive. 100% recommend!

It was a great lesson with Andrés! We spoke in Spanish the whole time and had an interesting conversation on various topics. He was very supportive and patient. I have gained more confidence after speaking with him, and I look forward to the next class! Gracias por tu ayuda y nos vemos pronto!

Andrés was prepared for the lesson and easy to talk to. He was helpful with grammar correction and cultural explanations. I would fully recommend him to other students.

Andres is very attentive. He reviews concepts he previously taught and builds upon them. He is very friendly. I like his teaching method.

Excellent
