Spanish classes in Apopka

I loved the pace of the class. It zipped along and we covered a lot of ground in a short time. Nelson was fantastic and kept it moving with great energy.

I have used Duolingo over the years to try to learn and have picked up some decent vocab, but after taking the Level 1 class at Berges I have so much more knowledge and understand Spanish so much better. Can't wait for Level 2!

Love the class for our instructor's remarkably clear grammatical instructions, sophisticated cultural references, and wonderful lightness in the exchanges.

The course was appropriate for a beginner student. The content was clear and in the order of difficulty. There were homework exercises to practice after class. It focused on overall literacy in Spanish- Reading, Writing, Listening n Speaking. The pace at which content was covered was just right... never too slow or rushed. The instructor explained the content very thoroughly with practice examples. Miss Medina is super professional and has immense patience. I have enrolled in next level now... The cost of the the course is high without the Groupon and will be a factor in enrollment for the next level. The institute should rather let students use Groupon’s to encourage them to continue their learning of the new language. Last but not the least, the coordinator, Laura Rios, is extremely prompt in her communication with any queries. One suggestion would be to provide instructors direct institute emails for communication rather than always going through the coordinator. Overall a very good experience.

I enjoyed this class very much. I took Spanish in high school and I feel as if I learned more in the 10 weeks I took this class than I did throughout the first year of Spanish. It was accessible location wise, the homework was not too excessive, and I felt comfortable making mistakes and learning in the class. The instructor was easy to ask questions to and always helpful. I also appreciated the seamless way the course shifted to online learning due to the COVID-19 crisis. I will be taking Beginner's Level 2 with the same instructor and hope to stay with the institute for a while.

Loved the course, I've had previous Spanish classes but a long time ago. I took this class as a refresher because I knew that I forgot some of the finer grammar points. About two classes in we already covered something I was doing incorrectly. I also loved Juan Carlos' teaching style. He spoke a lot of extra Spanish to help get us accustomed to hearing it (ex: page numbers) this is a beginner class so he would also make sure to say it in English. He also put a lot of emphasis on students practicing speaking. That's my weakest point so I definitely appreciated the extra practice. I plan on taking as many classes with him as I can.
