Private Classes at Your Location or Mine

I accept motivated students from 14 years of age to adult  for weekly classes and now have limited spaces available in my calendar. I teach in Manhattan Monday through Wednesday, and in Bucks and Mercer Counties Thursday through Sunday. I teach via web cam at a variety of times times (see web classes). 


In Home Classes: $60/hour 

Web-Based Video Classes

We classes are conducted via Skype and can be one-on-one or conference style. I have great success with this method in which we can see and hear each other, as well as use the Chat and Document Send functions to share written communications. Indeed, young students sometimes do even better via the web method than via in person lessons because working with a web teacher seems like more fun and less pressure!

The student must provide his or her own web cam and headset, and I recommend a visit to RadioShack for these items which can cost together as little as $30. Skype is downloadable for free for both Windows and MacOS at www.skype.com. Protocol: I schedule a 15 minute technical orientation session with the student free of charge before we commence web classes to make sure our equipment and connection are functioning properly together. I do not recommend web-based video classes as an option for dial-up users.

(Online) Web-based Skype classes: $40/hour. 

* I offer one trial class at full price and then schedule a minimum of 4 one-hour classes, scheduled and paid in advance. This does not apply to institutional classes.

Group Classes

If you have a group of friends or colleagues who would like to take Spanish with you, that's fine. Location must be provided by the group.
Cost: A group of 3-10 people: $25/person for an hour long class. These rates are applicable only to private groups, not to institutions.

Institutional Classes

I have designed courses for large institutions and companies with curriculum tailored to the needs of their staff and students. Chazen School of Business at Columbia University, Einstein Medical College, Brooklyn Legal Services and others have entrusted me with their language education needs. I offer classes and curricula geared towards business, health care, social work, legal and other specific areas. Contact me for a price quote. 

AP Spanish Preparation

I helped to write the book on how to crack the AP Spanish Exam. This course of study involves the student with test taking techniques and required material for all sections of the AP Spanish Grammar Test and the AP Spanish Grammar and Literature Test.

NEW! Spanish Homework Help Line!

For a subscription of $50/month paid in advance, your high school or college student can contact me via email to review homework assignments. I will never do the homework for you, but rather I review the assignment, mark errors and offer direction on areas of grammar on which the student needs to focus. This service is not a replacement for classes, and clients will receive abbreviated comments, not a full explanation.
