He estudiado con Ana por unos años. Empecé con un curso de preparación para el DELE B2 y regresé para estudiar con Ana para el DELE C2. En sus clases hay un grande rango de temas y ejercicios de pronunciación incluyendo trabaja lenguas divertidas, de gramática, de escritura, de lectora y de conversaciones. Cada clase está bien estructurada tiene un objetivo claro. Además, me gustan las presentaciones de PowerPoint, el uso de videos y juegos para aprender. Después de aprobar mis exámenes DELE he seguido estudiando con Ana cada semana. En estas clases he leído unas de las obras más famosas en la lengua española y cada semana hablamos sobre lo que he leído y Ana contesta mis preguntas y aclara mis dudas. Normalmente, hacemos las lecciones en línea por Zoom, de hecho empezamos mucho antes de la llegada de la pandemia. Para mí estudiar por este método es muy cómodo y Ana esta dotada para enseñar en línea y en clases presenciales. Ana siempre está preparada para todas las clases. Las clases siempre empiezan a tiempo y Ana es una persona fiable y puntual. Sobre todo, Ana es una profesora con mucha paciencia, explica todos los puntos y te empuja a esforzarte más. Aprenderás mucho en su clases. Recomiendo a Ana como profesora de español y estoy seguro de que disfrutarás aprendiendo con ella.

I never thought I would enjoy learning a language, but Ana is such a fantastic teacher that I look forward to my lessons every week! She goes at my own pace and includes lots of fun games and conversation activities to get me talking and improve my confidence. Online lessons work really well for me as I can fit them round my job and home life easily. Ana is really good at using the online platforms to enhance learning in creative and fun ways. As an adult student I didn't think I'd ever be able to learn a whole new language, but with Ana's great teaching I am progressing quickly and can now have conversations in Spanish! Gracias Ana 🙂

Ana is an amazing teacher and I cannot recommend her enough! The online classes with her are always super fun and interactive, helping me gain confidence in speaking, have a great time even in front of the laptop, and make friends along the way! I have started classes with her at level A1.3 and I'm now at level B1. All these years she has not only taught me Spanish as a language, but also everything about Spanish and Latin American culture, making the classes fun and interesting! Best teacher ever!😁

I definitely love the teacher Ana Martin. She is very patient, nice and makes learning spanish fun. She has so many different ways to get to all of the types of students with a smile. I have had her as my teacher for over two years and managed to go up to level B2 and I'm proud to say I now can speak to my in laws 🙂 It was the best decision I have ever made

Las clases fueron exactamente lo que buscaba y he aprendido mucho. Gracias Anita!

Ana creates a warm, friendly and fun learning environment and really takes a personal interest in her students and their progress, matching activities and content to suit their level and learning needs. I've gained so much confidence, particularly with speaking. It's been and continues to be a fantastic learning experience. Thanks, Ana. Muchisimas gracias!

I would thoroughly recommend Ana as a Spanish teacher! I had one-to-one lessons with her over the period of 4 months to prepare me as much as possible before moving to Spain. I had studied Spanish previously, doing evening classes and other one to one lessons but I feel I progressed more in those 4 months than any other learning period. Ana’s teaching style is very fun and engaging, motivating and encouraging. Each lesson was well prepared. She uses a varied mixture of material that works well to help with fluency and her use of online tools made it extremely easy to interact during lessons and for homework too. She has helped me greatly in key areas that I previously struggled with. Thank you Ana!

I had one-on-one classes with Ana. She was great to work with and constantly checked in with me to be sure I was getting what I wanted out of each class. Ana was always prepared and had exercises planned specifically for what I wanted to improve. She also provided good feedback after each class on things I could focus on before the next class. Highly recommend her!

Ana is a brilliant teacher, and was extremely helpful in the lead up to the DELE B2 exam. She is extremely discernable and conscientious, and I cannot recommend her enough. The Spanish Line have some great online content too which is well worth watching!

Anita is a great teacher, super friendly, professional and made me feel really comfortable in her classes. She's a native speaker from Spain which is a big plus. Recommend it without a doubt!!

Ana and Cristina are amazing teachers!! Patient, supportive and most importantly fun!! Definitely would recommend them both!! I have learnt so much from them!
