Spanish classes in Edinburg

I thought the course was great! I had taken Spanish in grade school as a child so I was starting for the basics. You learn a lot of foundational information in the class but its really up to you to practice what you’ve learned during the week so that it sticks.

The beginners class was perfect for someone like me, a complete beginner. Rolando is the best instructor, very patient and extremely knowledgeable in both Spanish and English. I look forward to Level 2 in the spring.

At age 70, I decided to try again to learn Spanish. I chose the Beginner's level because I needed the review and did not want to be "left behind in the dust" by younger students surging ahead with their quicker brains! I appreciated the way the course was structured. Common topics of "getting to know you" conversation were introduced early in the course. I felt I could quickly make sense of basic Spanish grammar which helped my ability to communicate more easily what I wanted to say. Many "holes" in my understanding left over from former beginning classes were filled in nicely. I feel much more confident about trying to communicate in Spanish (at least at a rudimentary level!)

I learned a lot during the class times, but the book and the online platform made it a bit difficult to learn. I had to find lots of outside resources to learn the content so I could participate in class.

The beginner course did an excellent job of introducing us to several fundamentals of the Spanish language. Our instructor was patient, but still did a good job of pushing us along the material. I am looking forward to the next level class.

Good pace, great blend of reading/writing/speaking/listening skills.
