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 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.

I was really lucky to have Mariaje as my Spanish teacher in a beginner’s class at the LAE school in Madrid. Mariaje is also at ease with sign language for the deaf or hard of hearing and she put her talent for mime to good use with us beginners.

I was lucky enough to have Mariaje as my Spanish teacher when I arrived in Spain in 2017. She is an excellent teacher who pays close attention to the needs of each of her students and tailors her lessons accordingly. I can’t recommend her highly enough and am sure that she will excel in any role she finds herself in!
