Spanish classes in Laredo

I really enjoyed taking this class and will be continuing to level II, and beyond! The textbook was very clear and useful, and the instruction was outstanding - Rolando was engaging, fun, explained concepts well, encouraged participation from everybody, and made class something I looked forward to each week. Administration is also top notch, very responsive, organized, and on top of things. I also appreciate receiving the follow-up emails every week with homework, grammar notes, and blog posts to keep students connected to learning. l'm very pleased and impressed all around with the quality of the teaching and the way this business is run. One of the best language schools in NYC I've attended (I've also studied French, Italian, and German at the premiere learning institutions here for those languages). I initially wasn't convinced that I wanted to invest my time in learning Spanish since I had no immediate purpose or motivation for it (i.e. for work or travel) and just took it up for fun, but had such a good first experience that I'm now kind of obsessed with improving my Spanish as much as possible! :D

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.

I enjoyed and learned a lot. We had Elena and also substitute teachers, Carlos and Andres. They all were great. Making up classes are easy and approach to teaching is practical and friendly. I would recommend them to all.

Excellent: relevant vocabulary, Important understanding of how to use The language, great involvement and class interaction. Definitely not boring.

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.

I really enjoyed learning throughout this course. My instructor was a great teacher, she was patient and always had answers for our question. She made me motivate to continue learning Spanish. Very much satisfied with her lessons and look forward for more to come.
