Spanish classes in Cedar Falls

The course was great as far as materials and the instructor. I just found 90 minutes to be a very long time to commit on a weekly basis. I’d prefer an hour long course.

The course is well structured and professional in every way. Everything about Berges is designed for a students maximum advantage and growth. The learning process is very detailed and swift. The amount of material covered in just ten weeks is amazing.

It was excellent. Briken down in simple form with use of examples to make me understand the instructor was great and encouraging

This course was what I'd hoped for and then some. I have difficulty learning foreign languages, but happily, this technique and this teacher suit me and I'm enrolling in Part 2. Julia is a wonderful teacher. She explains grammatical points clearly. She is patient and kind and handily involves the students in conversation with one another. I especially appreciate the points she makes about how something is said in Mexico v. in Spain or even in certain other Latin American countries. I enrolled in her course because my future extended family is Mexican and it was important to attune my ear to the Mexican dialect, so these explanations are really useful. So why four stars and not five? Three reasons: 1. There's no in-person option yet--and I understand that it's not possible yet, but being in person would ease conversation and build an esprit de corps amongst students. 2. I wish you used Zoom instead of BlueJeans. Zoom is just a better platform. Hope you'll consider changing. 3. I wish there was more written homework along with video components so that students could respond to Spanish spoken at conversational speed. But maybe that's to come in the more advanced modules. Looking forward to the past tense. Many thanks.

This was a great online course to start learning more Spanish. I definitely got a lot out of the class and really enjoyed my professor and classmates.

This course was simply superb! The format is simple yet, challenging. Nick Garcia is an amazing teacher, easy going, kind, patient, and very knowledgeable. The lesson format is cumulative. Each weeks assignment would lead to not only a comprehensive understanding of the elementary basic use of sentence structuring and beginners conversation, but also works to build confidence in the student. I was very pleased with my progress and the ease by which the course was taught. I have signed up for the 2nd session with Nick- Highly recommend!
