Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I'm a retired High School Spanish and Community College Instructor. I have an MA in Spanish Literature from the University of Delaware and 29 years of experience teaching Spanish at all levels. I am at my best when tutoring High School, College and/or Adult continuing education students. I can help with Spanish in the areas of grammar review and explanation, vocabulary work, and speaking practice. I will tutor high school, college and adult education students. I get incredible joy out of sharing the love I have of Spanish and the varying cultures of Spanish speaking countries with others! Since I am a total language dork and I love experiencing cultures that differ from my own, I find the intersection of language and culture absolutely fascinating! My language explanations come from having learned Spanish as a native English speaker and from my own need to find something about an unfamiliar concept that "makes sense" to me. Despite the years that I've been a fluent Spanish speaker, I still remember what it was like to "not get it" and, as a result, my students have always told me the way I explain things is super clear and helpful. Feel free to look for my teacher/professor ratings on Rate My Teachers, or Rate My Professors at Brandywine High School and Delaware Technical Community College in Delaware.

More than ten years after having Senor Chango as a teacher, I can still say he was one of the best educators I've ever had. He makes learning Spanish fun, engaging, and approachable. Rather than being intimidated by taking on a new language, I was excited to go to class each day. Senor Chango has a way of presenting material in a way that's really relatable to students, which makes it all the more easier to learn. I had the pleasure of being in Senor Chango's class for two years, and learned more than I ever thought would be possible. Beyond that, he is a truly exceptional person who goes out of his way to support his students, and I'm so grateful to have had him as a teacher.

Edd Chango was my Spanish teacher for 3 years of high school and after 20 years he remains my dear friend. His teaching style is engaging and dynamic, reflecting his true appreciation for Spanish language and culture. He is extremely knowledgeable, takes his job very seriously, and possesses a knack for explanation that utilizes a spectrum of angles to relate material to real life. He is dedicated to his students and forms a real connection with them, while maintaining a high level of expectation for performance. Students want to do well in his class because he builds a mutual respect for the success of each participant. He is easily one of my favorite teachers, and is responsible for imparting knowledge that reaches far beyond Spanish words, knowledge that has stayed with me far beyond the shelf life of the majority of my studies. Señor Chango has my enthusiastic support for any aspect of the teaching profession. I highly recommend him as a teacher in any and all capacities.

I took Spanish for three years in high school before I had Edd as my college instructor. It didn't really click until then! Edd just has a great way of not just teaching the content but breaking down the information and giving you the necessary background knowledge to not just succeed with the material, but to retain it and apply it. Through his class I not only developed an appreciation for the Spanish language and culture, but for language acquisition, & I learned a lot about the English language on the way. I would highly recommend him as a tutor, because even in a classroom setting he was able to meet the needs of each of his students. In a one on one setting I'm positive that his methods would be highly effective!

Señor Chango made learning Spanish fun! 20 years later, I can still sing a song about speaking on the telephone. He has a passion for teaching, creative methods for presenting the information and a joyful personality.
