Roberto Talavera

The lessons with Roberto are both instructive and engaging! Time passes so quickly! He is knowledgeable, supportive, communicative, and considerate. He pays attention to student’s needs, learning style and employs effective teaching methods. He draws inspiration from his love of his native culture and finds teaching and interacting with others very rewarding. I have no hesitation in recommending Roberto to anyone looking to acquire or improve her or his Spanish language skills.

Roberto is an amazing Spanish tutor. When I met him, I couldn't remember anything from my 8 years of Spanish lessons as a child. He helped me relearn everything. I went from only remember lo siento to being able to hold conversations and travel in South America with no problems. I highly recommend working Roberto if you are looking to learn, relearn or brush up on your Spanish.

Roberto is an excellent teacher! He is patient and starts off as slow or fast as your individual needs may require. Roberto made the lessons fun and engaging with a lot of conversation, which is what I needed most from my Spanish lessons. In a short amount of time I was able to speak quite a bit of Spanish, enough to even communicate with locals in South America while I was on vacation. I would highly recommend Roberto if you are someone looking to learn or improve your Spanish while having a lot of fun and spending that time with a very cool guy.

I have been taking Spanish lessons with Roberto Talavera for more than 3 years. He is a very thorough teacher, covering both grammar and vocabulary. He uses reference materials such as books, worksheets, and videos to reinforce each lesson. He explains things in a clear and easy to understand manner. I can recommend him highly!

I have been taking Spanish lessons from Roberto Talavera for one year. I never had much formal Spanish instruction, so was looking for classes to help me learn grammar and improve my conversational skills. It has been highly motivating to have one on one lessons with Roberto. He is professional, patient, and is able to tailor the lessons to my level of knowledge. He supplements the lessons with homework that incorporates a variety of styles, including novels, music, and video interviews. In the past year since I have been taking lessons with Roberto, my confidence in Spanish has improved and I am able to communicate more effectively with clients at work. I highly recommend Roberto Talavera.
