Conversational SPANISH Classes

Busco clases - busco profesor From Madrid with over 12 years of experience in teaching Spanish as well as serving San Francisco State University and UC Berkeley as a freelance approved tutor and translator in the Spanish Language.



As a practice I like to assess the skill level of my students; Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and then tailor the class to your needs as appropriate. My one on one conversational classes are very motivating, fun and progressive. Meaning that I put you in real situations where you only have one choice, speak in the Spanish language. Further, I am dedicated to working towards your improvement, helping to identify your weaknesses and grow your strengths.



Extensive experience with medical and professional training. The classes are private in a safe and comfortable atmosphere with a wealth of resources: books and handouts.





I do my best to keep you at ease and comfortable so that you get the most out of every lesson. My schedule is flexible so we can plan together the best times suitable for your lessons.



Learning Spanish is fun, interactive and beneficial but it is ongoing and takes proven commitment. My rates are very reasonable at 40 euros per lesson. (Each lesson lasts one and a half hours)or 175 euros per five 90 minutes scheduled classes. This makes it a very manageable activity!





Looking forward to hear from you.



Best Regards,



Martín Márquez

TESTIMONIALS:

"Martin provides a very enjoyable and informative lesson in Spanish. His skills in holding the interest of the student are superb. As a visual learner, I sincerely appreciate his demonstrations and explanations, and above all, his patience and gracious demeanor."

"Martin creates a fun, inspiring, and comfortable atmosphere to learn Spanish. His teaching style is vibrant, creative, and expressive that one forgets that they are actually in a classroom setting. Martin emerses you into real-life situations that will engage you to use and practice Spanish. Each time I leave his class, I feel accomplished and more confident that I can learn Spanish. I have taken various Spanish classes in the past and by far, Martin Marquez is the most passionate instructor dedicated to meeting a student's individual needs."

Ninah Asuncion High School Counselor



"I've taken Spanish classes in many places for years and have learned that large group settings are a very difficult way for me to learn. The individual-style classes that I've had with Martin are clearly the way to go. You get the attention you need and Martin is truly a fantastic teacher. He is patient, intelligent, funny and is simply a fantastic teacher. He knows how to help me improve and does it in a very comfortable, professional and encouraging environment. I look forward to every class because I am improving. Gracias por todo Martin!"

I started to study with Martin to prepare for a trip to Spain; I wanted to become more familiar with the idioms and culture of Spain, having previously studied "Latin-American" Spanish. I had not planned to continue, but Martin was such a dynamic teacher and interesting person that two years after the trip, I am still studying with him. He has taken me to a new level of fluency and confidence in Spanish. I highly recommend him to anyone interested in improving fluency in Spanish in a safe and yet challenging environment.

"Martin is an experienced Spanish tutor who can contour the class for your needs, and who is always well prepared and open to questions. A great bonus is that he is trained as an actor so he supplies animated role-playing. Plus, we have fun!"

I have been a student of Martin's for only a few months and already have made a lot of progress, thanks to his helpful approach. Martin's ability to teach grammar, weaving it into Spanish conversation, makes the class fun - ninety minutes fly by! I also appreciate Martin's great sense of humor, his empathy, and patience - all of this makes for a safe environment to learn in.

"I have been through adult learning classes and home study programs before taking classes with Martin. Studying with a private tutor is the best decision I have made to commit to my eventual goal of Spanish fluency. At first I was worried about speaking Spanish and making mistakes. It is very comfortable (and humorous!) learning with Martin, and after a few lessons, that nervousness melted away! Now, my confidence with the language has increased, and I find myself looking forward to lessons each week. I have been studying Spanish with Martin for 3 months and I intend to continue with his classes for as long as possible!
