Sorry, I have been really lazy to update this blog. A few references from students this year :-)
"Angélica es la mejor profesora de español. Si puedes leer esto, pero quieres avanzar tu nivel mucho en poco tiempo ella puede ayudarte mucho. Aprendí más o menos por mi mismo hasta un nivel donde podía leer novelas y entender mucho - pero hacía falta cosas sutiles, y casi nunca usé el subjuntivo. Para pulir y mejorar mi entendimiento y uso del idioma Angélica me ayudó muchísimo.Si no puede leer este párrafo, va a aceptarlo como evidencia subliminal que los ovnis arriba de Villa de Leyva van a tomarse un otro mundo, un mundo hispanoparlante donde va a entender todo! Angélica tiene esta chispa extraterrestre para implantar el idioma en su mente. La operación no es dolorosa. Confíe en ella!"

Angélica is an excellent teacher who clearly takes time to prepare her lessons and ensure you get the best experience possible. Lessons were a mix of exercises and she will always challenge you to improve and give you the space to experiment and get things wrong. While happy to prepare classes herself she is also prepared to be flexible and work in areas that you may particularly wish to focus on. She was tremendous fun to spend time a couple of hours a day with and, in fact, her lessons were so good that we changed our plans so we could return to Bogotá and do further classes with her. We can't recommend her highly enough.

Being an absolute beginner, I had warned Angélica that her hands would be full. She was up to the challenge and demonstrated incredible patience with me. From helping me with vocabulary, to understanding the structure of irregular verbs and sentence structure. She tought me how the basics of the language worked. Armed with this knowledge, I am now able to comprehend what is being said and written, I am a bit slow at it but I feel she provided me a very solid foundation that I can build on.
Angelica is a true professional, her teaching style is classical with lots of supporting materials. I am looking forward to my next trip to Colombia and continuing my Spanish lessons…and other fun things such as salsa dancing, hiking in the mountains and eating bocadillo, mazorca and other tasty treats."

I am so thankful I found a great teacher in Colombia. She´s a great cook too! Demand her to prepare a vegetarian meal for you when in Villa. I hope I can go back again to Colombia soon to continue my studies with her. Cheers!
