Reviews for Level 4: object pronouns, future tense and verb haber

Monica Negron is an excellent teacher. I wasn't sure about an online class, but she keeps you engaged every minute. I like the Berges Institute method, the way it builds only on things taught previously. This gives a sense of accomplishment while allowing time to learn more difficult constructions without being lost by unkown definitions. It also allows the whole class to be on the same page.

Monica is a fantastic teacher. I learned so much. I recommend Berges to everyone

I have learned so much in this level. I still feel that my ability to understand spoken Spanish and to speak it myself is lacking, but I do feel that I'm getting strong building blocks for grammar and sentence structure that will ultimately help me be a better Spanish speaker. The teacher, Nelson, is simply amazing. I feel so incredibly fortunate to have him as a teacher.

This is my second course with Monica. She is very skilled at teaching. She explains things clearly and in a practical order. I’m enjoying learning from her and will take her next course.

I haven't finished level 4 yet, but so far I'm loving it. I'm getting lots of practice with different tenses and also learning a lot about pronouns. It's an excellent class.

I have the course with Silas. I am enjoying the interactive presentation of the course and we are not "lectured at". We practice what we learn during the lessons! Silas explains the nuances of phrases and always provides alternative ways to say things in spanish. The class maintains my engagement and makes the time go by fast! Highly recommend!

The Berges Institute delivers on all aspects of learning the Spanish language and more. The units are broken up into snack size elements and the homework reflects the weekly materials. I would HIGHLY recommend the program if you are considering (or refreshing) your knowledge of the Spanish language. The flexibility built into the course structure provides for changing classes and meeting a busy schedule. The sessions are taught by very qualified instructors and the material is consistent from teacher to teacher. The instructor brings his or her flare to each unit. Silas is the BEST! Sign up for his course, you won't be disappointed.

First and foremost I think Juan Carlos is an excellent teacher. His instruction is clear and concise. He is a pleasure to spend 1.5 Hours with each week. For me, it would be helpful if we had time to review the homework and to stay on a topic longer than one lesson. While I understand that there are times that one lesson builds upon a previous one, the pace of learning a particular topic seems short Overall, I really enjoy my classes and plan to continue on and probably retake a level or two

I am on a Berges monthly plan, which allows me to take classes whenever my schedule permits. One of the features I appreciate most is the ability to go back and repeat classes when I need additional practice with more challenging concepts. The teachers are incredible. My favorites are Juan Carlos Alverez, María Chanamé, Silas Bermudez, and Gloria Alveal. They are knowledgeable, engaging, and make learning enjoyable. It is amazing to be able to choose my instructors! The website is user friendly and contains everything needed to get started. But I also choose to buy the workbooks on Amazon which I also appreciate. The "Search for Classes" feature makes it easy to find class dates and times, as well as classes taught by my favorite professors. I have recently advanced to Level 4 and am thoroughly enjoying the program. Berges Institute makes language learning so accessible while maintaining a high standard of excellence. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to learn Spanish in a flexible and effective environment. ¡Muchas gracias!

It gave me a very good review of all the basics.

A good mix of speaking and grammar. Nelson is a great tutor - he’s always very enthusiastic and makes the classes fun.

I really enjoyed the structure of the class and felt that Maria was great about engaging everyone and providing clear instruction on topics. The homework helped reinforce teachings and I learned a lot.

Very interesting topics, well organized, great examples and explanations.

I am enjoying the class, the text book is very clear and the homework provides great practice. The teacher starts the class with some conversation which I like, and gives a lot of time for practice of new concepts which I also appreciate. Sometimes the teaching of new information is a bit fast, but I’ve found that if I read over the material in the text book before the class, this isn’t a problem. The teacher is friendly and engaging and supportive.

Marian is a fantastic teacher! The course has been great. Very detailed and the homework really helps incorporate what we covered in the lesson. There needs to be a level 6!!

The classes are excellent. Great teacher and students.

Great program with lots of scheduling flexibility.

The material is clear and well structured and Monica is the best teacher! Patient, thorough, understanding, motivating. Great experience from level 2-4.

Very helpful!

Great instructors. Monica is super knowledgeable and very good teacher
