Student's Spanish drawing

Obra-prima de aluno

"A gift from Gideon, inspired by our lessons."

Arte e expressão

A língua é um ato criativo.

Um dos meus alunos compartilhou este lindo desenho, que capta o espírito criativo que levamos a cada aula. É a prova de que a expressão vai muito além do vocabulário.

"I followed Franco to iTalki after Duolingo Classes was suspended specifically because he is so kind, patient, and super fun! Speaking a new language is nerve-wracking but I feel comfortable enough with Franco to make mistakes. Already looking forward to my next class so I can make a lot more. 🤗"

"Excellent lesson with Franco! Really energetic, interesting guy to chat with. I learned some difficult grammar that's been bugging me for a while without having to spend too much of the lesson on it and we were able to cover a lot of different topics. Really recommend!"

"I love that Franco is active in correcting small mistakes, and offering more elegant or natural alternatives for expressing what I may have expressed more clumsily. My Spanish is fluent, so I depend upon such feedback to further refine my speech. For that, Franco's interventions are perfect. Moreover, Franco is evidently well-educated and able to speak in depth about a variety of topics, so sustaining interesting conversation is easy."

"Franco is so amicable and engaging! I love how he always keeps the conversation flowing effortlessly, and uses Spanish whenever possible, translating when needed. I’ve had lessons in the past with instructors who spoke a lot of English where I’ve been too shy to correct them, (since I think you need to hear and repeat and speak the language as much as possible to improve), but that’s never an issue with Franco! Even though I still sometimes struggle with fluently expressing myself, we always work together to eventually get things done in the target language! I appreciate how intellectually stimulating and kind Franco is. He’s so animated and inspiring, and it’s really easy to develop a fun and tender rapport with him!"

"I spent half an hour chatting with Franco and I really appreciated that he immediately picked up on phrases that I could improve on and started a word doc to write out the correct phrases while we were chatting. I didn't have to stop talking to take notes. I'll definitely sign up for more classes!"

"I've taken a few of the online courses and his has been my favorite. He was easy going, positive, and corrected without making me feel self conscious about speaking. I will definitely take classes from him again."
