Sometimes you run across a teacher that excels in their profession. I've been lucky to have Darcie as a Spanish teacher in various situations from community college classes to freelance learning groups. Always, Darcie's teaching style is rigorous yet gentle, creative, fun, and full of memorable learning stories and tips.  Even if you are short of time, and can't commit much time to practice and study, Darcie will leave you with the resources to continue pursuing language learning on your own and hopefully join another of her classes when the opportunity arises.
