Regarding to my quick relocation from Los Angeless to Miami (where a lot of people don’t speak English at all) I took an express spanish course with Sabrina. And after 2 private classes,I could notice the significant difference as I was able to make basic conversation in Spanish! And after 6 classes, it improved so much more! Sabrina createses her own teaching methodology with useful dialogues which cover all main subjects, grammar and vocabulary. Highly recommended!

I studied with Sabrina when she was located in the Bay area. She made learning Spanish so fun and a night out!! An extremely charismatic lovely lady she instantly becomes a friend and creates a relaxed but productive environment. As we would enter cafes she would smile, greet, and speak with many people. I thought she knew everyone personally but she didn’t. That is just her style. She takes in the whole place and invites everyone along for the ride. 🙂 You have no idea that your Spanish has improved greatly after an hour. You just feel like you had a much needed night out.

Sabrina is a wordly renaissance woman. She writes volumes about

interior decorating, cooking, language, and her extensive travels. Such a talented lady with so much to share.

Since I am often in LA I am going to try to get back in classes with her. For now I enjoy her blogs and e-mails as a way to stay connected. If you need to learn Spanish, definitely contact her!!

A couple of years ago, I hired Sabrina to teach me Spanish quickly and concisely for an upcoming trip to Puerto Vallarta. We met for our sessions in Berkeley cafes. Sabrina tailored the lessons perfectly for my particular level and situation. On my trip, I found that I could communicate in Spanish better than my guide, an ex-pat who had lived there for six years!

Sabrina is fun, lively, and (dare I say it) cute; but at the same time she is professional, directed, and challenging. She has my enthusiastic recommendation!” Will Robinson -Independent Publishing Professional.Berkeley, California. March 10, 2010.
