I am surprisingly enjoying the online classes, even though I would've preferred in-person class. Nelson is a great teacher - easy to follow.

Nelson did a great job teaching the Level 2 concepts and explaining why certain topics was for Level 3 and beyond. He also pushed us to practice speaking the vocabulary throughout the class. Fue muy divertido!!

My class with Alexandra was great. It was my first time taking a language class remotely and I wasn't sure what to expect but Alexandra's teaching and the small class size allowed us to work on covering all the material and work in-depth on any concepts that we were struggling with as individuals

It definitely stepped up and made learning Spanish more serious. It was a welcoming learning environment. I wish there was more time spent on pronunciation though

I would like a longer course or longer class so we could have more time to practice word conjunction as I have had in other schools. I like that at Berges we start speaking right away

The course was challenging for first timers but the teacher simplified it and made it very enjoyable and informative. I learned a lot with the way she taught the class with everyday examples, asked questions so we can think and the assignments really help to reinforce the learning

I enjoyed this class and greatly improved my proficiency. The instructor facilitated a comfortable environment to practice speaking, which has been challenging to me in the past. The pace of the course was great and homework was enough for essential practice without being overwhelming.

This course was very good. The grammar-based approach is very helpful to anyone who wants to eventually become fluent in spanish. Sofia is very good at keeping students focused on correct grammar, pointing out every mistake while still encouraging progress. I would recommend this class, this teaching method and this teacher.

They are small, intimate classes which allows for a more specialized experience. Alexandra is an amazing professor and I plan to take all available Spanish classes with her. She creates a judgement-free zone within her courses, and is open to answering any and all questions.

This course broadens your vocabulary on what you learnt from Level 1.

The class material was covered well, all concepts were fully explained, etc. Sofia went into concepts and handled trouble spots for students accurately and thoroughly. Additionally, she brought in creative exercises that helped expand the language beyond what just the book taught and fostered an outside-the-box approach in addition to the curriculum.

Level 2 with Alexandra was well-paced, with clear explanations and plenty of practice speaking and writing in Spanish. I am grateful to Berges for developing such an effective method and look forward to Level 3.

The course was great and I learned a lot. It was a smaller class, which allowed for lots of time to practice. The instructor was great also. I am already signed up to take the next level course with the same instructor.

This class was fun and I gain more understanding of Spanish and the nuances in language. The instructor is very good at explaining the lesson and engaging the students. He communicates with the students in Spanish and this a really good helps in reenforcing the lessons and learning objectives.

The course and the instructor were very good. Nelson keeps us on our toes with speaking and understanding the language in class. I like that we have to speak only Spanish in class even though it is not easy. I enjoy the way Nelson explains the required materials and gives us extra information outside of the textbook pages. I enjoyed the Level 2 class a lot.

I really enjoyed the course and the Graf method of teaching/learning. The homeworks and workbook were very helpful. Ian is a good teacher. I was hopeful the online class size would have been a little bigger to allow for more peer interaction. I had hoped to have more "discussions" in class to practice, but am thinking that may come in later courses as well.

This course was a pretty big step up from level 1, both in terms of difficulty and usefulness. It was also a lot of material, some of which I'm guessing will be reinforced in level 3, but as in level 1, Alejandro did a great job breaking everything down and making the concepts fun and easy to learn. A big thanks as well for keeping things rolling transitioning to online classes.

The pacing of the course and the amount of work each week was just right. We covered the whole book within the course duration and I felt thoroughly prepared for the exam. Julia is always patient with us and you can tell she genuinely cares to make sure we are all on the same page before continuing.
