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 taught me Spanish while I was studying at LAE Madrid and was without a doubt one of my favorite teachers there. She provided a dynamic learning environment with her creative and fun classes. As a student I always felt comfortable in her classroom given her open and warm personality.

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!

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 is an incredible teacher! I was fortunate enough to have her as my instructor for one-to-one Spanish lessons and she tailored he classes to my short-term goals and long-term language needs. She delivered lessons on complex structures and technical terminology in a manner that was engaging and very easy to comprehend. I can now deal with topics in Spanish that previously really intimidated me and caused me great anxiety with confidence, thanks to what I learned with Mariaje!
