There is a difference in difficulty between level 3 and 4. I believe level 4 contains a little too much material and that more time would be beneficial. The program itself is marvelous.

I felt like this course moved a little quickly and I had a hard time keeping up with the material for level 4.

The Graf method that was the basis of the textbook we used in the class was very clear and
easy to follow. I learned so much about Spanish grammar in terms of speaking but also for writing. I would highly recommend this class to anyone who wants to take their language skills to the next level.

This is my second class with Berges and with Sofia - both are excellent. Already signed up for and looking forward to Level 5.

I enrolled in this course to review material that I learned years ago, but had long forgotten. I found the weekly units to be logically and thoughtfully laid out, and both the book and the instructor to be very clear.

I love the approach. The course is quick but the method is very effective. I wish Berges Institute would adopt this method to teach other languages

Level 4 gave me the grammar to be able to have actual conversations and express myself better. I really enjoyed this level!

Berges has truly given me a very well-rounded understanding of how to listen and speak in Spanish. Even with the completion of Level 4 I of course still have so much to learn but I'm able to take what I've learned in these classes and apply them to becoming more well-versed with the language.

The course is heavy in grammar, which is difficult at times, but important foundation to learning the language thoroughly. The course is also taught entirely in Spanish, and has a great deal of conversation, and question / answer between students. The assignments in the book are also very helpful reinforcement and align well with the lessons.

My level 4 course was excellent with Sofia. What helped me the most was reviewing my homework at the beginning of every class. She was consistent with her process and very patient. She made me want to engage and learn Spanish. Level 4 was not easy for me but having an instructor that was so patient and welcoming helped me improve and want to be fully present. I will be taking another class with her for level 5.

This course was so far the most challenged all as it brought all of the previous classes into perspective. We learned a lot of new information and it was the most challenging of all other levels.

The materials and assignments were challenging and helped us really understand the language rules, exceptions and applications. The schedule options and make up classes really helped ensure we didn't miss anything and had the flexibility to participate in classes. I feel like I learned so much over the past several weeks!

Well-structured and informative class. Nelson left shortly after the course began for a paternity leave. We had two different teachers after that. Although both of them did a great job covering for Nelson, their styles were different, and it took me a little while to get use to each teacher. I prefer the same teacher throughout the course if that is possible. I know some things are unavoidable, so I understand occasional substitutes. I became a fan of Silvana towards the end, and I'd take her class again, so there were some positives as well. Thank you.

Alejandro and Alexandra, substitutes, were very good instructors. Class was always interesting, and time passed quickly. I look forward to studying at the next level.

I think the course it good but it moves so fast. It’s seems more geared to people who have a good knowledge of Spanish vs someone who has limited pre-exposure to the language.

This was an excellent course. Rolando is a great teacher. He is clearly highly skilled and knowledgeable. I learned a great deal and am looking forward to Level 5 now!

A thorough treatment of some important grammar items that I found difficult, i.e. pronouns and prepositions, as well as additional verb tenses. I like the homework assignments and the simplified short story texts.
