Spanish classes in Montclair

Julia is great. The curriculum works well. I would have valued a bit more learning around everyday phrases and some basic aids to communicating, such as what I believe is a very commonly used verb quierer and tips like tener que. I am now learning about these in a different format that I am trying, which is more about learning to speak and comprehend, quickly. I suggest including the key verbs --- with reflexives, of course, we need llarmarse and levantarse, but do we really need to prioritize verbs for shaving and putting on makeup? Nonetheless, I am using what I learned with Julia a lot, and I would recommend to anyone the foundational benefits provided by Berges and Julia.

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.

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.

Unfortunately this course was not engaging nor dynamic enough during class. We literally read page by page from the text book every Monday for an hour and a half.

Excellent instructor. I’m taking the second course with Edgardo because of how well the first course went. Good course set up and enough time to learn a lot. Would definitely recommend to my colleagues and friends.

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.
