Verona Schoolhouse

My daughter attended the Verona Schoolhouse weekly Spanish class for elementary-​aged children, and I can’t say enough good things about our experience. Rachel is a well-​organized, creative and gifted teacher. She made sure my daughter was comfortable in the class and kept the activities fresh and interesting. By the end of the year, my child couldn’t wait for class each week, and I could see how much she was learning. We’d exposed her to some Spanish since preschool, including a once-​weekly program at a private school, but her comprehension of (and enthusiasm for) Spanish increased quite a bit under Rachel’s tutelage. By the end of the year, the children put on a short play, all in Spanish, and they were so proud of themselves. I highly recommend this program based on our experience.

We moved to Austin just over a year ago and didn’t know anyone. So finding schools based on word on the street recommendations and online searches and phone calls was our only option. We just had to trust our instincts.
Sending our daughter here was a GREAT decision. Miss Rachel is a wonderful teacher and has created such a welcoming experience that it felt like we were part of the community for years. Our daughter made many great friends and really opened up socially. We couldn’t have found a better learning environment for her and for ourselves.
