The course moved at a comfortable pace and the material presented was suitable for true beginner. I enjoyed the way the material was presented in the Berges textbook and the weekly homework assignments helped to reinforce each week's lesson. Although it might seem overwhelming at first, once you get into a consistent rhythm and schedule for doing the homework, it flies by. While the online only format is convenient, particularly if I am traveling for work, I do wish this was an in-person class. Or if there could be some way for students to communicate with each other for meetings outside the classroom in order to practice more.

The curriculum for the course was well thought out. I loved the course book; it served as a great study guide. The course covered everything for beginners and prepared me for general conversation. A lot of vocabulary is covered; being able to go back to the course materials was helpful.

This was beyond a boring class the first few sessions. It was an entire 90 minutes on going over pronunciation in the following sessions. The teacher often forgot the name of the students who to ask questions to next he never once deviated from the written workbook that you gave. A teacher is not a teacher if they just read the written, workbook, and give the same exercises. I did not take most of this course. I cannot learn with a teacher who just reads verbatim from a workbook. It was incredibly boring.

Great course, visual teacher, just right for entry-lever Spanish speakers.

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.
