I had the honor of having Mariaje as a Spanish professor during my time in Spain. She is truly a great teacher with knowledge and power to move and challenge students as they progress through the language. I was truly impressed with the progress I made while in her class and was able to advance a couple of levels in a short time. Alongside her great teaching skills, she was always very professional, punctual, and most importantly approachable.

Mariaje is without a doubt, the best teacher I have ever had. I was raised by teachers and am one myself and she excelled at creating an atmosphere in her classes which were simultaneously inclusive and challenging. She made me feel like I could learn anything and provided a multitude of creative activities to liven up even the most mundane grammar points. Mariaje made every class come alive and inspired us to keep pushing ourselves.

Mariaje var min spansklærer da jeg bodde i Madrid, og jeg hadde det veldig hyggelig og lærte mye i hennes klasse. Hun er en glad og entusiastisk lærer som gjør det gøy å lære seg et nytt språk. Hun er også veldig flink til å snakke spansk selv med dem som ikke er så selvsikre eller avanserte. Jeg kan bare anbefale henne på det høyeste!

With broad knowledge and an approach adaptable to the individual, Mariaje gave me the confidence to get out and give it a go. One of the hardest obstacles to overcome when I relocated to Spain was the language barrier, but her interactive teaching style and dedication to my success has ensured that my Spanish has not only improved drastically, but that I’ve also enjoyed myself in the process.

Mariaje is an amazing teacher! She always brings a positive aura and certainly knows how to make learning fun, and I always walked out of her classes knowing that I was a better Spanish speaker and knew more about the culture.
