My son is a teen yet he looks forward to his session with Monica each week. She is caring and makes the session fun so that he does not feel it is work. He appreciates that she provides him extra practice sheets outside the session to help him further understand the concept. Thank you Monica!
Ryan B. from San Jose, CA
Monica is a great tutor. She is patient and very good at seeing people's Spanish needs. She was able to meet me at my level and helped me gain a great amount of confidence in speaking Spanish and it was also in a fun and interactive way. She was also able to refer me to some websites and resources to continue practicing and learning. She would also personally go out of her way to make print outs, homework and vocabulary lists specifically for me. Would love to go back soon. Overall, I would highly recommend Monica C!!
Mark G. from Palo Alto, CA
Monica is a great teacher. It seems like I have to learn the same thing three times before it sticks. Monica has the patience to allow this. She's the best.
Wendem B. from San Jose, CA
Our daughter has had one class with Monica. Our daughter liked what and how the tutor conducted the session. I remember after the session, the tutor told us that our daughter is doing very well.
Kuang H. from Fremont, CA
A few months ago, my son lost his confidence to take Spanish 3 after the first semester. Luckily, another parent guided us to find Monica at WyzAnt. Within a few months, he is happy to take his 10th grade final. Many thanks for Monica's help.
Joanna H. from San Jose, CA
I found Monica from WyzAnt one week before my son's Spanish final. Monica got my son connected from class #1. She helped him with the weakest points, clearing out his confusion. With 3 tutorings in a week, my son's final grammar test grade is A. I highly recommend Monica.
Tram D. from Sunnyvale, CA
2 of my daughters have been learning Spanish with Monica for almost a year now. I feel very comfortable and confident that my children learn Spanish well with Monica. She always has detailed information about the content of the classes that she taught including homework assignments. She is conscientious and organized. The children learn without much complaint.
Jyo T. from Union City, CA
We were extremely fortunate to come across a tutor like Monica who is an extremely well-rounded teacher. She is well versed in Spanish and English and has the patience to guide and bring out the best in students without over-whelming them with assignments. As a native Spanish speaker, she helped my daughter to refine her spoken and written Spanish fundamentals and prepare her for her high school classes. I would highly recommend Monica to anyone that needs such guidance.
Jocelyn D. from Portola Valley, CA
My high school daughter wanted to brush up on her Spanish after living abroad in China for a year, so I set up some tutoring sessions with Monica. Monica was extremely organized, knowledgeable, warm and engaging. She speaks beautifully as a native Spanish speaker. After Monica left our home, even after her very first session, my daughter said "I love that woman!" We would highly recommend Monica for Spanish tutoring.
Mike W. from Redwood City, CA
Monica is an excellent instructor. She has a very effective teaching method for creating good learning patterns. Very professional and pleasant to work with. I am very fulfilled after each lesson, having just the right amount of expectation and progress, paced to my ability to absorb each lesson. I feel that my Spanish has improved markedly in comprehension through the lessons. Not only is her methodology consistent, but she is very patient. Despite my inability to recall previous lesson practices on occassion, she works with me to help reinforce aspects of previous lessons and reinforces key aspects of the lesson plan.
Mukarram S. from Palo Alto, CA
Monica was very professional and arrived on time. My son, a 9th grade student, said she helped him in understanding the material he had most difficulty in understanding. He felt very confident afterwards. His high school teacher felt he was more clear with the material they have been doing in school after Monica's tutoring. Thanks Monica for the great job. We will definitely keep you in mind the next semester.
Don G. from Palo Alto, CA
I started working with Monica after doing a lot of study on my own. She has done a great job understanding what I do and don't know and adjusting my lessons accordingly. She makes them challenging, but still fun. She's also very reliable and flexible. I strongly recommend her.
Mike Z. from Morgan Hill, CA
Monica was excellent. Very reliable. Very flexible with times/locations for the study sessions. And most importantly, knows how to relay the language to a young kid who is not exactly excited about studying Spanish. When my 16 year old son says "yeah she's really good" then you know she's excellent.
Sieun L. from Cupertino, CA
Monica helps my son with his Spanish every week. She is super responsible, intelligent, and extremely passionate about teaching! My son was shy of learning a new language, but after learning from Monica, he is not afraid of speaking Spanish at all! I am so happy Monica is my son's teacher. I highly recommend Monica to anyone who is interested in learning Spanish!!
RON D. from Los Altos, CA
My son just turned 13 years old. He is in 7th grade, and is taking the first year of Spanish in middle school. My son was not happy in the class and had lost his motivation to learn Spanish. He felt the teacher was going too fast, and he was being left behind. Monica started tutoring my son about two months ago. In the begining, I explained to Monica what our goals and objectives are for my son: Improve his grade in the classroom, while helping him gain a wider understanding of Spanish language. She connected very well with my son, and was patient with him, as she has a soft and gentle demeanor. She would speak in Spanish with my son, and patiently wait for him to respond. From the onset, my son was looking forward to Monica's tutoring sessions. Monica reviews his work, and gives him guidance for his school work. Being a native Spanish speaker is a great asset. Monica helps with details of the language. Monica has transformed my son's view of his Spanish class. My son has improved his grade in the Spanish class. In a very short period of time, his grade has gone up to an "A". Monica has done an excellent job for my son.
Charlie T. from Northville, MI
Monica has been tutoring my son since this January. We see significant improvement in his Spanish 4. Monica is not only a great Spanish tutor but also a very good mentor. My son enjoys his time with Monica for both Spanish study and discussions about his school life.
Elaine O. from Sunnyvale, CA
Monica is very flexible with scheduling and really helped my son understand Spanish 2 concepts, she explains things in a clear manner and is very patient!
Maria B. from Redwood City, CA
Good teacher. She is nice, patient, and at the same time brings a lot of material, so the kids improve their Spanish at fast speed. I am very happy with Monica, and certainly recommend her. She is punctual, and I feel is forcing the kids to practice and learn a lot of the language in a very short period, but at the same time, making it enjoyable for the children.

Monica is concise and easy to understand. She was able to jump right in and understand what I needed to bridge my learning. She also has a very easy going and positive manner, which makes the lessons more enjoyable.
