“Leah’s warm, personalized teaching style was exactly what we were seeking. She guided our teenage son with great knowledge, professionalism, kindness, patience and understanding. Leah is a remarkable educator and an honest and kind person. We highly recommend her.”
“Leah tailors your lessons to help you reach your goals. In my case, she armed me with specifics geared toward where my husband’s family is from. Now with a little on the way, she's giving me words to use with my new bebé. Leah figures out the best way for you to learn and make it easy to keep up with your studies. She is very encouraging and makes learning fun!”
“You are one of the best teachers I have ever had. My goal at the start was to improve my speaking so I could have a full, casual conversation in Spanish without having to hesitate and think about what I was going to say before I say it. Through your help and encouragement of participation, I believe I achieved my goal. Again, thank you.”
About Leah
For more than twenty years I’ve had the good fortune of working with some of the most prestigious schools and educational organizations in the US and abroad, including the New York City Department of Education, Putney Student Travel programs and Windward School in Los Angeles. I’m a Massachusetts native with a Bachelor’s degree in Spanish and Latin American Studies, a Master’s degree in International Education, and I hold a California Clear teaching certification.
I have traveled, lived and worked in Spain, Cuba, Argentina, Peru, France and China. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy singing in a medley of vocal groups around the LA area.
“I was surprised how quickly it all started coming back! I’d been thinking about taking Spanish classes again for years and I’m so glad I found Leah. She’s a great teacher… passionate and patient. She did a great job meeting us all exactly where we were and helping to satisfy each of our goals and needs. Her assignments were challenging and fun but also realistic; nothing too overwhelming. Leah had great course materials, apps to recommend, and fun lessons.”
