I've been learning Spanish with María for several months now as an adult beginner and have made significantly more progress than trying to learn independently. The lessons are varied, cover all aspects of learning a language and follow the CEFR; María also provided extra resources such as audio clips, additional exercises, and the expertise of a native speaker to help understand common expressions/slang that aren't taught in a traditional course. María has been incredibly flexible around my schedule and I highly recommend learning with María at any competency level.

From Rick
María Piñon García is an excellent tutor - friendly, calm and welcoming and also willing to work at my pace. I look forward to our lessons, which we have arranged to take place weekly.
From Ameet
Very good teacher
From Duncan
Maria was well prepared and had material to support lessons on subjects that we'd agreed in advance. She helped me make a lot of progress quickly and keeps the pace of the lesson at a suitable level. She was on time, polite and in my view a really good teacher. Thanks Maria.
From Janette
Maria quickly established where my son needed to focus. She makes the most of her sessions - wasting no time and getting straight down to tutoring. My son's confidence increased very quickly as he saw a path to improvement and withinn a month, his school work was showing a marked improvement. The fact that she is a native Spanish speaker is an advantage as it has helped my son to tune in to the language. Maria is reliable, flexible and responds quickly to emails.
From Philip
Maria is a very good Spanish teacher as she has a clear plan for what you need to learn next in order to improve. She is encouraging, builds up your self-esteem with languages, and is friendly and patient. I enjoy being taught by Maria and will look to take a Spanish GCSE in the not too distant future.
From Tim
Helping me in just the way I wanted
From Carolyn
Maria was great, followed a wide variety of subjects using different activities and she was very much appreciated by her students who only had positive things to say about her classes. If we come back to Chalfont St Giles and need a Spanish teacher again, I would have no hesitation in contacting her and asking her to come and teach for us. She's a lovely lady too.
From Shirley
I am delighted with Maria's service. She is very punctual and patient. I would recommend her without hesitation
