Testimonials
Susan M. from Reston, VA My son seems to enjoy each session with Lorna, feels he is really learning, and is more relaxed about Spanish homework. Before he was very frustrated with Spanish and his school Spanish teacher. He is still frustrated with the school teacher, but the work is going better. Thank you.
Maureen L. from Mc Lean, VA Lorna is going a great job tutoring my child in Spanish. She is thorough, professional, kind and very astute in interacting with and encouraging children. She uses every minute of the lesson productively and makes a special effort to provide information which the child can review in between lessons. Her kindness and sense of humor are present during every lesson. Her desire to have your child succeed is obvious during every session. From our perspective, we could not ask for a better qualified tutor with such strong interpersonal skills. You'll be making the right decision if you hire Lorna as your child's Spanish tutor!
Kenneth S. from Reston, VA I have been with my Spanish speaking wife for 3 years now and in that time have learned quiet a bit of Spanish (@ home and through immersion in Spanish speaking countries); however, I was still having difficulty conversing. In just a few lessons with Lorna (~7), I have been able to greatly improve my confidence in speaking and my listening comprehension. I went from barely being able to converse at all with my father-in-law to actually being able to have conversations. Lorna is patient and accommodating and uses a variety of methods to keep you focused and expanding your vocabulary. She's also great at correcting pronunciation and focusing on the things that you specifically need.
Vic D. from Herndon, VA Ms. Lorna has transformed our son's interest in Spanish and he has been scoring very highly on his tests in school. This was a kid who was completely disinterested in the language arts and what Lorna has done for him has been nothing short of miraculous. Furthermore, she has been very flexible with our changing schedule when she can. We highly recommend Lorna.
Randall C. from Herndon, VA Lorna instantly established a bond with my daughter, which is not easy! Lorna can keep her attention for over an hour, something that I thought not previously possible. I have noticed instant progress with my daughter's Spanish- most importantly in her attitude toward the subject. Lorna is HIGHLY recommended.
Rick T. from Alexandria, VA Lorna is very passionate about teaching, and very intuitive in regards to how I best learn. She tailors the lessons to meet my specific needs, and most importantly she makes learning fun! Her lessons are always diverse, interesting and infused with culture. Her patience and positive energy inspire me to do the work that is necessary to learn a new language. Five Stars!
Charles T. from Mc Lean, VA Lorna L. is a marvelous Spanish tutor. She is delightful, charming, intelligent and extremely flexible. Rather than use a rigid and rote language system, she sizes up the student and designs a program that is best tailored to his or her needs. I am very lucky to have stumbled across Lorna and I very much look forward to spending as much time as I can with her.
Corey W. from Great Falls, VA Lorna is very dedicated and accessible and a good teacher. She helped me turn my grades around and was very encouraging.
Kelley A. from Herndon, VA Lorna is excellent with both spoken and written Spanish. In just a short period of time our son went from failing Spanish to achieving a ?B?. Lorna is punctual, communicative, and most importantly, able to connect with her student. I would not hesitate to refer Lorna as Spanish tutor to anyone.
Kathy J. from Reston, VA In addition to her ability to teach Spanish, by working with Lorna, my son is gaining much needed skills and confidence, and actually enjoying learning the language once again. Prior to his work with her, we'd quit entertaining the idea that he could actually like learning Spanish, and are happy that he not only enjoys his tutoring sessions, but has gotten back on track with his studies as well. Thanks Lorna!
Troy H. from Oakton, VA Great tutor! Lorna has a great personality. She is motivated and caring about her student progress. She is flexible with her schedule. Thank you for helping our son improving his Spanish.
Michael B. from Fairfax, VA My daughter in 3rd grade and has been learning Spanish for a year. When we started to look for a Spanish teacher, Mrs. Lorna profile at WyzAnt and few other websites seem to be exactly what we were looking for. After several lessons, my daughter told me that she is the best teacher ever! Since March when we started to have weekly classes, my daughter's Spanish really emerged and she is putting a lot of effort, mainly due to the love to language Mrs Lorna brings into the classroom. We are so happy with the lessons in general and so with the curriculum developed by Mrs Lorna that include also electronic tools, making the lessons real fun. My daughter can?t wait till the next lesson and practices the entire week in order to be able to learn something new. Mrs Lorna is amazing teacher and we are so happy!
