I enjoyed this course and had a positive experience. I felt the material presented and the pace were carefully considered. Definitely looked forward to my class every week and my instructor did a great job teaching the course.

This was a very good learning experience, especially considering the circumstances. I would imagine everyone is tired of working remotely but the online platform actually worked well for this course, probably because we were a small group (five students). Everyone had lots of time for conversation, which I found to be the most rewarding aspect of the course.

This course was great for me. I liked how it was taught and how my instructor made everyone in the class feel comfortable speaking.

Course two felt like a significant jump from course one and at times I felt overwhelmed. It wasn't until we were reviewing at the end that it all came together for me. Additionally the pacing at times felt imbalanced in terms of how much new material was covered in one class versus others. That said the course was good on balance, subject matter was broken down well, examples and whiteboarding with our instructor was incredibly helpful and I was challenged but not discouraged. Looking forward to course three!

Very good class! The class itself organized the content to build a base--not simply conversation. The structure is so important for the serious students but not overwhelming. You get what you put into it.

Great course and teaching just wish the classes were a tab bit longer for questions and such.

I thought this class was engaging and fun, Dennis is a good teacher. She makes concepts clear and accessible and I like the ways she used screen sharing.

I thought the class was well-structured, but was a bit heavy on grammar and homework assignments. I think more in-class practice would have helped with retention.

A great course. The structure made sense and provides a solid foundation of language rules and vocabulary. Nelson was engaging and fun!

I love the method used at Berges, for learning Spanish. Rolando Gonzales is a patient and good-natured, supportive teacher who gently squeezes success and learning from the students. I have taken four courses with Rolando and will be back soon for the next in the series.

The course materials are good and the class progresses in a scaffolded way to help you build on each week. My instructor didn't always feel prepared and was often distracted, talking to other people in her house or taking phone calls. I liked the homework assignments, and wish there were even more practice materials between classes.

Karen is a great teacher - super patient and clear. The pace of the course is good and I like how the information builds over time. I think the value of the class is good - the time in class vs the price. I feel like my knowledge of Spanish is something I’m building while still retaining what I learned previously.

I think the outline of the material is easy to follow. I absolutely loved the instructor, Karen. She was so patient and helpful. Learning a second language at my age has been very hard, but I appreciate the ability to take classes with Berges.
