This class was fantastic! I had not taken Spanish since I was in school over 10 years ago. I was nervous because I did not have a great experience, particularly with speaking, which is what I am most interested in mastering. This class got rid of my anxiety completely. The pace was perfect. The constant review of past lessons cemented my knowledge and increased my confidence. The instructor was helpful and encouraging. I cannot recommend this class enough and I am excited to continue on to the next level.

I am very pleasantly surprised by how much Spanish I learned in the Beginner course. For a few years, I have tried to learn Spanish from books and software, but I learned more in these 10 weeks at Berges. Andres Lopez is an outstanding teacher and the course material was very good.

Rolando was really patient, accommodating and engaging. He explained things really well and it felt like he was always going the extra mile.

Learned a lot. Rolando was patient in explaining the aspects of grammar that some students found hard to understand.

The beginners class was perfect for someone like me, a complete beginner. Rolando is the best instructor, very patient and extremely knowledgeable in both Spanish and English. I look forward to Level 2 in the spring.

The course was a helpful introduction to Spanish. We did a lot of repetition of new words/sounds and going over homework in class. Towards the end of the course we begun practicing short dialogues and interactions, on the topics of our likes/dislikes etc.

I have used Duolingo over the years to try to learn and have picked up some decent vocab, but after taking the Level 1 class at Berges I have so much more knowledge and understand Spanish so much better. Can't wait for Level 2!

We were pushed to memorize the vocabulary and conjugation to form statements. This was highly valuable and though hard at times, it was appreciated.

I loved this class. Juan Carlos keeps things moving and enjoyable while always creatively teaching at a high level. It takes focus and commitment, but I got a lot from this class, and have already enrolled for the next level.

Honestly I really loved this class. I loved my instructor. My only issue was that I thought there could have been more material. Our last 2 classes were basically review. Would have preferred using them for more material. Thank you.

I love the beginners course. I've learned and re-learned so much in just a few weeks. I will continue taking classes at Berges.

Even though I tested into the second level, I saw that the first level was on groupon and decided to use the discounted price as a way to gauge if I like the school and teaching style before committing to the full price and ongoing classes. Berges Institute was great and my instructor Alejandro was wonderful as well. I enjoyed that vocabulary was mostly on students to learn and class focused on grammar and practicing conversational Spanish.
