Spanish classes in Pittsburg

I was originally intimidated about starting level one. Because since it was only 10 classes I assumed it would be very fast-paced. I did not know if would not be able to keep up and understand so I was already doubting myself. My instructor Monica was awesome , she went at a great speed any many things from high were starting to come back. I was able to understand quicker than I thought, but you REALLY must practice outside of the once per week class to keep your mind from forgetting. Level 1 was very fun, . I passed my exam!!!! I am ready for level 2.

I really like the immediate feedback that is available for the video classes. So far, I have enjoyed the format of the classes and the progress I've made in speaking Spanish.

The course material was presented in an easy-to-follow manner. I learned at a nice pace and never felt confused or overwhelmed. The instructor explained the nuances of the language (for example, when to use ser vs estar). This is not an easy concept to learn from an app! The end result is that the grammatical rules make sense. I loved it!

This course was excellent. As a career technical instructor, I appreciate effective course materials and talented instructors. This course had both. It is for absolute beginners but I came in with a fair amount of proficiency in Spanish. Despite my prior knowledge, Juan Carlos taught me many nuances I did not already know. He was also able to shore up some weaknesses in my basic Spanish. Now, I have even greater confidence in conversation with Spanish-speaking people.

I can't believe how far I have come in just 10 weeks of Spanish class through Berges. With the small group size of each class, I'm able to ask every question that comes up, review all of my homework, and get lots of practice speaking Spanish with my classmates and professor. Speaking of professors, I can not speak highly enough of Rolando. He is engaging, clear, and has lots of ways to explain the language that help me make sense of how it's different than English. This makes Spanish feel more natural to me, as opposed to always trying to translate in my head. I'm so grateful that my friend recommended Berges to me, and I recommend it to everyone who asks about my new found linguistic skills! Don't hesitate - just commit to a class once a week and you'll be amazed at how quickly you can navigate a simple conversation with another Spanish speaker.

I have enjoyed the beginning Spanish Level 1 classes. All of the instructors have bben encouraging and extremely knowledgeable.
