I loved my class experience with Marian. The flexibility with scheduling is a huge advantage, and I'm encouraged by how much content I'm already able to comprehend during my day to day experience. I scheduled the next unit!

The course was excellent. I would definitely recommend this course to someone wanting to expand their knowledge of Spanish and learn the basics. As an instructor, Juan Carlos was fantastic and I would definitely take a course from him again.

This class was fantastic! I had not taken Spanish since I was in school over 10 years ago. I was nervous because I did not have a great experience, particularly with speaking, which is what I am most interested in mastering. This class got rid of my anxiety completely. The pace was perfect. The constant review of past lessons cemented my knowledge and increased my confidence. The instructor was helpful and encouraging. I cannot recommend this class enough and I am excited to continue on to the next level.

Great course. I enrolled at Berges a little over a month ago and will continue through the program!

I am very pleasantly surprised by how much Spanish I learned in the Beginner course. For a few years, I have tried to learn Spanish from books and software, but I learned more in these 10 weeks at Berges. Andres Lopez is an outstanding teacher and the course material was very good.

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.
