Mission
Mi Camino Tutoring strives to provide quality tailored/individualized tutoring services that enable each learner to effectively learn Spanish.
Mi Camino Tutoring’s goal is to familiarize ourselves and our students with their learning needs, wants, and preferences as well as life interests in order to mutually create the foundation for an engaging, fun, and effective supplemental learning process.
Values
Personalization- Each student will receive an initial information form to fill out to let us know learning preferences/needs as well as interests in order to personalize their instruction/support
Patience- Students will always receive patient instruction that accommodates their unique learning pace
Encouragement- Every student will be encouraged and uplifted in their learning journey and be reminded that the space we provide is safe in order to learn.
History
The root of Mi Camino Tutoring was planted in March 2017 when founder Melissa Hummel Romero started offering private Spanish tutoring lessons to a few students in the Denver Metro area of Colorado. It simply began as a way to sharpen teaching skills and engage more in the community, but grew into a joy and passion for providing individuals an accessible and individualized way of learning Spanish.
Melissa continued providing tutoring services to more students each year and as she continued with her tutoring experience, it became clear that most schools and language-learning apps depended on a “one-size-fits-all” teaching method that was not only ineffective but was also causing a lot of stress and frustration that prevented students from wanting to continue their learning process. Because of this, Melissa saw the need for individualized support in Spanish language learning and began to really understand her desire to make that tailored learning support a reality.
