The in-person course was very efficient and I picked up basic Spanish in an incredible amount of time. An hour and a half passes by so quickly. The method they teach you makes a lot of sense to me.

At age 70, I decided to try again to learn Spanish. I chose the Beginner's level because I needed the review and did not want to be "left behind in the dust" by younger students surging ahead with their quicker brains! I appreciated the way the course was structured. Common topics of "getting to know you" conversation were introduced early in the course. I felt I could quickly make sense of basic Spanish grammar which helped my ability to communicate more easily what I wanted to say. Many "holes" in my understanding left over from former beginning classes were filled in nicely. I feel much more confident about trying to communicate in Spanish (at least at a rudimentary level!)

Rolando was a great instructor! The textbook and lessons were clear and paced well.

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.

This was a wonderful course. I actually had taken this course before. The second time around I got to appreciate the pace and level of the lessons much more as I was more relaxed and able to reabsorb the knowledge.

It is a fun course. It gets you going speaking and writing Spanish from the start.
