The class was awesome! The method of teaching used was better than all my years of Spanish I took in middle school and high school, and made me feel so much more confident in my ability to continue relearning the language.

I really enjoyed attending the course because it was easy to follow. The teachers included all of the students to participate. The time schedule was very flexible that I could easily change the day and time if needed. I really enjoyed going to the in person classes, which was one of the main reasons why iI chosed Berges Institute. I am looking forward to attending the next courses. Best, Max

Good material and good approach to learning Spanish. Interactive sessions in small groups are very helpful in learning Spanish, and I appreciate the focus on conversational aspects.

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.

I learned a great deal from the course.. I learned more in these weeks than I did in high school and college when I was forced to take a Spanish class..

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to learn Spanish with this method?

Most students become conversational after completing 5 levels (about 12-15 months of regular classes).

I've never studied Spanish before. Is this right for me?

Yes! Most of our students are complete beginners. We designed our Beginners classes specifically for people with zero Spanish experience.

Will I be embarrassed in class as a beginner?

No. All Beginners students start at zero. Our teachers create a supportive environment where making mistakes is part of learning.

How is this different from Spanish apps?

We teach grammar rules first, then practice. Apps make you guess patterns. Our method is faster for adults.
