I really like how it's designed, focusing on grammar, learning vocabulary along the way. I liked that every class started with Maria asking questions using the grammar we learned in the previous class. There's a lot of interaction, which is great.

I really enjoyed this level with Eva! There was a lot of conversation and she pushed us to speak Spanish as much as possible. Very supportive and understanding if we didn’t know how to express something.

The course was structured well, with the most difficult information at the beginning and simpler stuff at the end. The practice questions were extremely helpful

I really enjoyed my first class at Berges. The material is organized in a way that promotes learning. Alexandra Valencia is a great teacher,very patient and extremely helpful. I will be taking my next level with her. I have learned so much in level 2and I want to build on that this Summer.

I really enjoy having a live class environment. While the apps are nice for vocabulary, being able to speak with other students and ask questions is invaluable to me. Julia Negrete as a professor is extremely patient, encouraging and has helped me grow quite a bit.

This course has helped me gain confidence when speaking in Spanish. Nelson is thoughtful and attentive to student needs. The conversation portion is extremely helpful in terms of learning and I became much more comfortable during it as a result of taking this class.

The course was about as good as a group class can be when you have students of different mother tongues, different experience levels, and different motivation levels. I may just do privates for the next level.

I feel that I learned a lot in this class especially from the interactive games and conversations that we participated in towards the end of each class. Jennifer offered just enough guidance yet liberty for us to develop our skills.

The course was fantastic. We had four people in most of our sessions; and we built camaraderie throughout the weeks. The sessions were segmented into specific learning modes, some were easier than others. Our instructor was receptive to our questions and eager for us to grasp and understand grammar.

Serious study on a daily basis, including doing the homework and going over the material between classes should lead to a very rewarding result. Juan Carlos works hard in the class, makes sure to involve every student, patiently answers questions, explains concepts very well, and is generous with his time, often starting a little early and gladly staying late. The written materials are very well done as well. Berges Institute has a very excellent product, with equally excellent instruction! I learned a great deal!!!

I like how the Berges Institute is set up with homework and a test because i makes you keep up and work consistently. Juan Carlos is very patient. He keeps his class light and fun while still getting lots of work done.
