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..

The course was a good beginning approach, stressing conversational skills, along with the necessary grammar guidelines. I liked the course book, which was less comprehensive, and less intimidating, than a typical beginning Spanish book (from what I remember from many decades ago), easing us into a practical learning mode.

Terrific. Highly recommend. Both in class and homework were well paced with lots of opportunity to check progress.

The workbook is easy to follow. Explanations are clear and concise. I suggest an index in the back of the workbook, so that topics can be found more easily for review purposes. Page numbers in the table of contents would also be helpful.

The beginner's class was just what I needed to get started learning Spanish. The course materials are easy to understand and are wonderfully organized so that you are always building on what you already learned. I was anxious about learning a new language but this class eased me into the learning process, making it fun and challenging at the same time.

While I believe, as in any education program, that the results depend entirely on the effort one puts in. Berges Institute has provide the tools for me to go from zero comprehension to actually being able to have simple conversations with my wife's abuelita. Thank you!

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.
