Sandra is a motivator when all the students were worried. Sandra's best strengths as an instructor are patience and reassurance.

Sandra is a wonderful and thoughtful instructor. Lectures and exercises were always well structured and easy to follow. Her ability to condense complex ideas into digestible and easy to understand material was incredibly helpful. Her support for all of us students throughout the process felt genuine and heartfelt. Super thankful to have had her has an instructor during a long and stressful week!

Sandra was an overwhelmingly supportive instructor who took time to instill confidence and knowledge in her students by encouraging them and providing them with all of the tools necessary to succeed. She is gifted with communication and excels in lecturing students while simultaneously creating a space for them to grow professionally and personally. I would highly recommend any and all courses that Sandra provides.

Sandra is great, so knowledgeable and down to earth. It’s really great to hear from someone who is so well immersed in coffee to share from personal experiences.

As a fluent Spanish speaker, I enrolled in Sandra Loofbourow's "Spanish for Coffee People" summer series primarily for the content in Lessons 3 and 4 - cupping Spanish and Spanish for Roasting Coffee. However, I found myself thoroughly enjoying each class. Sandra's teaching methodology is playful, kind, patient, and thoughtful, making the learning experience both engaging and enriching. I'm now eager to explore advanced Spanish with the vocabulary from the guías de catación y tostación, and I hope Sandra offers deeper dives into this fascinating subject in the future

I loved this class! I feel like the few short weeks gave me a surprising boost in my existing practicing, and certainly answered coffee specific vocab I wouldn’t have gotten otherwise. It’s super nice to have all the vocab saved now and I can keep practicing, and it was very helpful to do this right as I started learning to get pronunciation down by hearing someone talk in real time. Definitely worth the time and money.

Sandra has a deep and wide knowledge of all parts of a coffee roasting and cafe business. Her insights and recommendations were clear, informative, and actionable. We've worked with many consultants over the years, and Loupe Coffee Consulting stood out in terms of how clear it was that the work we did added value. I'm sure we will continue to work together on future projects. Great work! Highly recommend.
