We started with Maria in September 2024 to tutor our (then 12 year old) daughter who is studying Spanish language at grammar school. Prior to this she was just learning on the Duolingo app. We are so happy to have found Maria. She has taken our daughter from near beginner level to consistently attaining the highest grades across her year group. She is excelling not only in vocabulary, grammatical structure and pronunciation, but also fluency and confidence in speaking to native Spanish speakers (as we found out when we took her to Barcelona last summer). Our daughter absolutely loves classes with Maria and treats them as a highlight of her week rather than a learning chore. We have since also started classes with our younger daughter (9 years old) so she is ahead in terms of curriculum and confidence for when she starts secondary school in a couple of years. She also loves her classes with Maria and I can see how she is progressing. Maria has a natural ability in teaching children and her lessons are always well structured and visually suitable for online classes. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Maria as a Spanish tutor. My only regret is not having time for myself to take classes also ️
Estas clases me han ayudado mucho a mejorar mi español como idioma y en A levels. Me han beneficiado en saber responder las preguntas del examen con más eficacia. Las clases son muy estructuradas, cubriendo muchas cosas en solo una hora, y al mismo tiempo la profesora va a tu ritmo de aprendizaje; no te sientes apresurado. Lo que más me encanta es que la profesora se da cuenta de cualquier duda que tengas o cualquier error que cometas; inmediatamente te corrige y te apunta todo para que puedas reflexionar y estudiar tus dudas y errores después de la clase; así ganas tiempo sin hacer tus propios apuntes y te centras más en aprender.
Teacher Maria is very kind, humane, very understanding, efficient and professional. In one year she taught my son more than what he has learned after 3 years in his school. She’s a diamond in her job, which you must very well keep when you have it. I hope we will cooperate for many more years. Thank you for your commitment, your understanding and your love towards your job.
My teacher Maria managed to teach me how to read Spanish and how to understand Spanish in a very short period of time. She is the best Spanish teacher i had.
I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to study Spanish with Maria. Throughout our lessons, Maria has demonstrated remarkable flexibility in her teaching style. She consistently adapted each session to my learning pace and needs, which made the process both enjoyable and effective. Her lessons were always well-prepared, engaging, and tailored to ensure I understood and retained the material. Beyond her teaching skills, Maria is also a genuinely kind and supportive person, creating a comfortable learning environment that encouraged me to speak and practice without hesitation. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking to learn Spanish in a friendly and personalized way. Her dedication and passion for teaching truly made a positive impact on my language learning journey.
Hola. I had my first lessons with Maria back in Autumn 2020. Although it has only been 30 minutes lessons each week, I have improved my Spanish significantly. Maria really knows her way of teaching, explaining and letting you improve. She thinks very practically and uses the materials of her website, which she also created herself. It is always very enjoyable to meet her, and she motivates me to keep learning and practicing. I would definitely recommend her to any student. Additionally, I also watch her videos on Youtube, where you can learn a lot even for free. Best recommendations. Go for it, she is a fantastic teacher ♥️ ♥️
Después de buscar y probar bastantes maestros que le dieran clases en español a mi hijo online, al final encontramos la mejor calificada por nosotros. María es una súper maestra, que ha mejorado y ayudado a que mi hijo progrese en el español. Cómo Padre, hemos visto la mejoría en la pronunciación, en la gramática, en el buen uso de las palabras, sobre todo los tiempos que para el era algo complicado. El niño está encantado con ella. Un punto importante es la diversidad de actividades y recursos que ella usa ya que hace las clases muy dinámicas y entretenidas. Lo más importante a resaltar es el profesionalismo, dedicación e interés que ella tiene para que mi hijo progrese cada día más. No podemos estar más contentos, simplemente agradecerle y deseale lo mejor.
Somos una familia multilingüe. Mi hijo hablaba español a nivel muy básico antes de empezar las clases con María. Gracias a ella, ha adquirido una gran base gramatical y vocabulario avanzado. Para mi, lo más importante de las clases de María es que el niño se motiva durante la clase y se divierte. María es muy creativa. Siempre encuentra las palabras adecuadas para hacer la clase animada y entretenida. Además de ser una profesora excelente, María es muy paciente y cariñosa. Se nota que disfruta transmitiendo conocimiento. Me encanta que se interesa por el niño y el carácter de la clase depende del estado de ánimo del niño. Las clases son más que una simple conversación y enseñan más que solo un idioma.
When I started learning Spanish with Maria I didn’t even know the basics, but after just a few weeks I was able to have basic conversations. Her teaching method is very engaging and uses a mixture of conversation and prepared tasks, which makes learning Spanish much easier. I always come away feeling like I’ve learnt something and I’m progressing. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn Spanish, improve their level and meet new people. I always enjoy my lessons with Maria!
Learning Spanish with Ms Maria has been an enriching experience. Her passion for the language and dedication to student success shine through in every lesson. She has a structured approach to teaching, but she is also flexible and attentive to my learning needs. Her explanations are clear and her lessons are engaging, making complex concepts easy to understand. I appreciate how she incorporates cultural elements into her teaching, which adds depth and context to the language. Her positive attitude and encouragement have boosted my confidence in speaking Spanish. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn Spanish effectively and enjoyably.
Conocimos a María C. Martinez cuando buscábamos a alguien que ayudara a nuestro hijo, Lorenzo, a reforzar el español, y no pudimos haber encontrado a alguien mejor. Desde el primer día, María ha demostrado una paciencia, dedicación y pasión por enseñar que nos ha impresionado profundamente. Lorenzo ha avanzado muchísimo en su comprensión y uso del español, pero lo más importante es que se siente motivado y feliz en cada clase. María logra conectar con él de una forma especial y le transmite amor por el idioma.
Recomiendo totalmente a María de Bilingual Cerebros, la metodología que emplea en la enseñanza se hace más sencilla para aprender y entender el inglés, no se pierdan esta oportunidad de crecer de nivel con su inglés.
