F.A.Q'S
Are you a good fit for tutoring services?
In the first session we will assess the ability of each student so that we may tailor an instructional program to meet their individual needs. It is clear to us that every student learns differently so we design specific strategies to help students learn best.
What are some of the classes offered?
AP Spanish Language, SAT Spanish Subject Test, Conversation, Spanish for High School and Spanish for Specific Purposes.
Why take one on one Spanish tutoring?
Because it is the fastest possible way to learn Spanish. You are not held back in anyway by other students (which can be a big problem with classes containing groups of people), and the teacher can tailor the lessons around your needs. Another great advantage of the course is that you get to speak to a native Spanish speaking tutor, listen to his pronunciation, rhythm of his speech and practice listening and speaking.
How are the lessons delivered?
The Spanish lessons are delivered by the instructor in the comfort of your home or office, Monday -Friday, after 4:15 pm.
How quickly can I start?
After being tested to find your level of Spanish you will be assigned a tutor and fitted into his schedule at your request. You let us know what times you wish to do lessons and we will try to fit around you.
How is payment usually made?
Payment is expected at the end of each and every tutoring session. Classes offered in a package are prepaid. We take personal checks, money orders and cash. WE DO NOT take credit cards.
I already know some Spanish, do I have to start again?
No, you will be tested using a short test from which your teacher can gauge your level and help you improve from there.
Who are some of your clients?
The College Board, Charlottesville City Schools, University of Virginia, Fork Union Animal Clinic, State Farm Insurance, the Holidays Inn, Alexander Nicholson Construction, doctors, nurses, high school students, landscapers, world travelers, etc.
Where do you offer your services?
We cover Charlottesville, Crozet, and Ivy.
What about class materials?
For the most part we provide and design our own instructional materials. Sometimes the student is asked to buy a particular book depending on the nature of the class.
