GBGreat experience! I have tried many tutors in my quest to reach fluency in Spanish. I struck gold when I found Uriel. He is friendly, motivated, and truly understands how to teach effectively. You will speak real Spanish and have real conversations as though chatting with a friend. Uriel is blessed with the gift of conversation so every class is interesting and passes quickly. He encourages students to speak and makes corrections in a gentle and patient manner. The focus is not only on speaking grammatically correct, but also improving pronunciation and reducing one’s accent. I would recommend lessons with Uriel to anyone looking for affordable, quality instruction. You will become comfortable with the language in a short amount of time and you will have fun.

GBIf you want to really learn Spanish...start here! Really enjoying my lessons with Uriel. He has you speaking Spanish from the first lesson. I know I will be able to speak Spanish independently this year! Uriel is patient, kind and funny. He explains lessons thoroughly and does not hesitate to clarify and review when you need it! Highly recommend! What a wonderful to gain confidence in a new language!

GBGreat Experience I purchased an excursion package to Tepoztlán with Uriel and it was an unforgettable experience! Uriel is funny, respectful, patient, and a great teacher overall. When he picked me up in the morning, he asked me to only speak in Spanish which really gave me a boost of confidence to practice what I'd learned in class. The day trip was incredible; Tepoztlán is a beautiful mountainside town just outside of Mexico City. We got breakfast at a food market there and, with Uriel's help, I was able to order my sope and all the toppings I wanted in Spanish. Afterwards, we hiked up the hills to a beautiful Aztec pyramid, all the while talking about food, culture, and life in Mexico, all in Spanish! Uriel made me feel comfortable enough to not shy away from making mistakes (all of which he gently and patiently corrected); and he even taught me some fun Mexican slang! If you're going to visit Mexico City, I highly recommend buying an excursion package from ChidoLingo. No class or book beats learning Spanish through immersion accompanied by a great teacher like Uriel.

GBGreat teachers! I've been studying with Uriel 2-3 times a week for the last 3 months. My Spanish has really improved! I love that he's helping me learn *real* Spanish, the way real people really speak it - not make-believe textbook Spanish. Thanks, Uriel!

CAFun, fast and easy to learn with Dutongui I have found Uriel to be an excellent teacher. He has a great way of explaining things so that they are easy to grasp. He has helped me to quickly understand things that I have been struggling with for months. The Dutongui site is absolutely awesome! The structure of examples and exercises makes learning fun and easy. I highly recommend Uriel and Dutongui to anyone wanting to learn Spanish
