Reviews from our students
Livinus Bazira
Beginners' level is so practical and helpful to give out good foundations in learning new language.
Jacqueline Lake
I have enjoyed the classes. They are structured and there is a lot of repetition which helps me to learn the language.
Anne Cole
The programme has taken us through a logical and enjoyable way of beginners Spanish. I have enjoyed working with the group and Monica is an excellent teacher. She is very knowlegdeable, approachable and empathetic. I have tried learning via apps, but there is nothing like having someone who can explain things and answer questions.

The method is incredibly effective. I feel that I’ve retained most of the skills we learned—and we covered a lot. The classes are engaging while remaining focused and content-rich. It was well worth the time and money. The instructor, Monica Negron, is excellent.
Ciera Lisser
Easier to manuver zoom meetings, easy to reschedule classes w/out missing a lesson. Teachers very good
Stephen Hill
Class is informative, teacher is patient and passionate. Easy to change classes if something comes up
Thomas Pritchard
I’ve enjoyed the class. The pace was about right. Fast enough to challenge but not so fast that I could not keep up. The instructors were knowledgeable and encouraging.

For me this class is too crowded - too much to take in, remember and find time to do homework each week. However, I am Australian and doing this in the middle of the day, so have found that challenging as it often conflicts with other things going on during the day so feel that has also impacted my enjoyment of the class.
The teacher is OK but I would like less content and more opportunities to practise the "conversations" , rather than going through the theory, which I know is important but simple conversations might enforce it better than reading what's already written in the unit.
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.
Do you teach Castilian or Latin American Spanish?
Spanish is one language with regional differences, mostly accent and a handful of everyday words, just like any other language. We teach standard Spanish, so what you learn works wherever it's spoken.
Are classes recorded?
No. Classes are live and not recorded, for student privacy and to keep speaking practice pressure-free.
How old do I need to be to enroll?
Our classes are for adults. The one exception: if you're 16 or 17, you can enroll as long as a parent or legal guardian accepts our terms on your behalf.
Can I change levels?
Yes! Just send us a message through our Help Center.
