About Spanish in Downtown San Rafael

“Felipe I hope you do it realize what a really excellent teacher you are because no matter whether it's in person or on zoom you motivate people and you do it with a sense of humor and you make the classes very enjoyable and also you are no nonsense at the same time.Which can be a difficult combination and you use every minute and don't waste any time and I'm pretty sure all your students enjoy your classes and Zuzana agrees she can hear you in the background and she also says what a good teacher you are"

I've been studying Spanish with Felipe Garces for several years now, and I've thoroughly enjoyed it! His classes are small, cordial and friendly. Felipe supportive style of teaching makes everyone feel comfortable and engaged. What a change from studying foreign language in school! I highly recommend it!

Felipe Garces is a talented teacher, bringing the gifts of his humor, patience, and diligence to the classroom every week. In Felipe's class, it's not only about instruction on proper grammar and pronunciation. I am also inspired by his devotion to learning, his passion for the Spanish language and culture, and his intellectual curiosity.

I don't think I can say enough good things about Felipe Garces as a teacher. His class is organized and challenging, yet tailored to each students level. We carry on conversations in class, we read, get homework and have a lot of fun learning. It's a high point of my week and I wouldn't miss it.
