Spanish classes in Spartanburg

The course is well structured and professional in every way. Everything about Berges is designed for a students maximum advantage and growth. The learning process is very detailed and swift. The amount of material covered in just ten weeks is amazing.

I liked that the course was on-line, the class consisted of 3-6 persons, and there were options of days and times - especially the availability of a Saturday class. The workbook was easy to understand and exercises helped with the retention of the language. At the end of the 10 week course I am able to read, write, understand and engage in a Spanish conversation. I cannot wait to start level 2.

Rolando was really patient, accommodating and engaging. He explained things really well and it felt like he was always going the extra mile.

This course was what I'd hoped for and then some. I have difficulty learning foreign languages, but happily, this technique and this teacher suit me and I'm enrolling in Part 2. Julia is a wonderful teacher. She explains grammatical points clearly. She is patient and kind and handily involves the students in conversation with one another. I especially appreciate the points she makes about how something is said in Mexico v. in Spain or even in certain other Latin American countries. I enrolled in her course because my future extended family is Mexican and it was important to attune my ear to the Mexican dialect, so these explanations are really useful. So why four stars and not five? Three reasons: 1. There's no in-person option yet--and I understand that it's not possible yet, but being in person would ease conversation and build an esprit de corps amongst students. 2. I wish you used Zoom instead of BlueJeans. Zoom is just a better platform. Hope you'll consider changing. 3. I wish there was more written homework along with video components so that students could respond to Spanish spoken at conversational speed. But maybe that's to come in the more advanced modules. Looking forward to the past tense. Many thanks.

The course was well organized and has really helped me kickstart my journey with learning Spanish. I would highly recommend this program and am already signed up for the next level!

This course is fantastic if you are looking for basically one on one tutoring. The instructor goes through each section basically just following all the homework provided and every single line of the textbook. She may use some graphics, but I personally need out of the textbook references and making conversations that are easy to remember. The instructor did the basic, but I’m looking for an instructor that really brings you in and tries to educate you on why it’s pronounced that way or helps you to memorize the topics. I forget things easily and always made shortcuts so I could remember, but as Professors do in a class of two people - I would be put on the spot and blank. I was hoping to find a learning community, but I think the most I found here was a resources textbook and someone to read it to me.
