Frequently asked questions

Do you offer interview coaching or practice interviews in Spanish?

We teach conversational Spanish through grammar and sentence-building rather than interview coaching. However, once you have conversational fluency, you'll be able to discuss your background, answer questions, and express yourself confidently - all essential interview skills. The grammar foundation lets you construct professional responses naturally.

How long before I'm ready for a Spanish-language job interview?

This depends on your starting level and the interview's language requirements. If you need intermediate conversational ability, plan for 12-24 months of study. For basic interview skills, 10-15 months might suffice. We recommend assessing your target level and planning accordingly.

Will conversational Spanish be enough for professional interviews?

Conversational fluency is the foundation for all professional Spanish, including interviews. Once you're conversational, you can discuss your work history, skills, and career goals. Industry-specific vocabulary is easier to learn once you have this conversational base.

Can you help with industry-specific vocabulary for my field?

We teach general conversational Spanish. Once you're conversational, you can more easily learn and use industry-specific terms. Many students supplement our classes with vocabulary lists specific to their field.

The method is incredibly effective. I feel that I’ve retained most of the skills we learned—and we covered a lot. The classes are engaging while remaining focused and content-rich. It was well worth the time and money. The instructor, Monica Negron, is excellent.

I’ve enjoyed the class. The pace was about right. Fast enough to challenge but not so fast that I could not keep up. The instructors were knowledgeable and encouraging.

For me this class is too crowded - too much to take in, remember and find time to do homework each week. However, I am Australian and doing this in the middle of the day, so have found that challenging as it often conflicts with other things going on during the day so feel that has also impacted my enjoyment of the class. The teacher is OK but I would like less content and more opportunities to practise the "conversations" , rather than going through the theory, which I know is important but simple conversations might enforce it better than reading what's already written in the unit.

I had no idea what to expect form this course, but I was very pleasantly surprised with the quality of the course, the small size of the class (usually about 5 students) and the amazing instructor, Juan Carlos Alverez, who has been so encouraging and helpful. I hope to take further Spanish classes from Berges Institute.

I really enjoyed this online Spanish class. The level of difficulty is very suitable for beginners like me. It focuses on the most fundamental concepts, which makes it easy to follow and build a strong foundation. The lessons are clear, structured, and not overwhelming. I feel more confident starting my Spanish learning journey after taking this course.

I feel this class is moving very quickly for “beginner” Spanish, but Rolando makes it more fun.

Excellent course with an excellent instructor. The way the material is presented really aligns with how I think, which made retention much easier. I will definitely continue with additional levels.

This Spanish program is so well run. Because all the instructors teach the same lesson plan from week to week, I am taking the classes at a faster pace and try to take 3-4 classes each week. Thus far, I've worked with five different instructors and every one of the them have been very qualified and helpful. They are Spanish speakers who love to teach. I appreciate the order and pace of the learning and look forward to continuing through the levels and into the conversation levels. I would give this program 10 stars if there were more. I recommend it highly!

I have learned so much more than I ever thought I would. I almost wish my classes were twice a week for even more practice.

I think this class is very helpful and I do believe I am learning a lot. I like that we learn and especially speak which is what I would ultimately like to be more comfortable with. Monica is a great teacher and I am able to fully understand what she has us doing.

With very little background in the Spanish language, this course has allowed me to begin building a strong foundation in speaking Spanish. There's always opportunities to speak, read and practice in class with the instructor and classmates, and reinforce all the information learned through the homework. The structure of the course also allows for that flow where you're able to begin practicing the speaking and reading skills from day 1, which was important for me!

I've had to move around the scheduling of a couple of my classes- it was easy and all of my instructors have been so great! They teach with a laid back welcoming approach that makes it easy for me to just try (no real fear of mistakes!). Love it! I will be taking at least the next level class this year!

Excellent beginner Spanish class! Clear explanations, a comfortable pace, and a supportive learning environment made the class both enjoyable and effective. The instructor was patient and engaging, and I gained confidence in basic Spanish quickly. Highly recommend for beginners.

The methodology used is spot on, but the lack of a consistent instructor is not conducive for quality learning. You just get used to one instructor and another instructor is teaching.
