Spanish – English Language Instructor
I earned a MA degree in Spanish Language and Literature.

Testimonials
Sherry S. from San Carlos, CA Carole has been working with my son for few months now. She has helped him not only with his AP Spanish but also with his writing in English. She is very organized in her work and follows through with the work she gives him on a weekly basis. We are very happy with the result we got so far. Thank you.
Liz M. from San Mateo, CA Carole did an amazing job not only in tutoring Spanish but in helping our daughter overcome the panic she would feel in class and during oral exams. Carole is patient, kind, fun, and very experienced. She tailored each session to our daughter's needs and was able to customize and personalize discussions in Spanish to our daughter's interests. She clearly thought about how to engage our daughter in the subject. Carole quickly built our daughter's confidence in her own knowledge so that she no longer dreaded being called on in the all-Spanish class and during oral exams. We are very grateful to Carole!
George A. from Burlingame, CA Our son had an excellent experience with Carole, sharpening up his Spanish skills before a third-year final exam (Spanish 5/6, for those of you keeping score). Carole did a great job of reviewing verb structures in ways that caused everything to make sense. She also had lots of very useful pointers for the oral exam. She underscored ways to sustain a dialogue - and make the most of existing vocabulary and grammar - rather than getting trapped in difficulties trying to express a particular response. I only wish we had started with her earlier in the semester.
