Frequently asked questions

I need to handle customer calls right away. How quickly can I start?

Most students can handle basic customer service conversations within 10-15 months of consistent study. While you won't be fluent immediately, you'll build the foundation needed for customer interactions, which you can then adapt to your specific products and services.

Do you provide scripts for common customer service situations?

We teach conversational Spanish rather than specific scripts. However, once you're conversational, you'll be able to adapt your company's scripts and procedures to Spanish, or create natural responses to customer needs without relying on rigid scripts.

What if I don't understand a customer or they speak too quickly?

We teach you how to handle real conversations, including how to politely ask for clarification or repetition. Our instructors expose you to various speaking speeds and accents during class, preparing you for real-world customer interactions.

Can our customer service team learn together?

Yes, if you have multiple team members at similar Spanish levels, we can arrange group classes. Learning together can help build shared vocabulary and create a more bilingual customer service culture.

Spanish Level 1 for beginners or those who haven’t been studying Spanish for a long time. Basic concepts are taught. We learned about Ser/Estar, family, colors, emotional states, some of the most useful regular and irregular verbs, reflexive verbs, etc. As the course progressed, there was more conversation each lesson.

This was a wonderful beginning Spanish class. We were able to build sentences and convey basic information within just a couple of weeks, while understanding the building blocks of the language and where it differs from English.

Thank you Rolando Gonzalez! My class from last year was great, but this class was awesome!! Rolando's teaching style makes you want to learn and engage. Thank you for your patience, everything just clicked this go round. I hope to have you as my instructor for my level 2 class. It will make a difference in my learning to maintain the same instructor. Loved this class and will encourage others to take the class and get involved. Thank you for the opportunity to learn and expand my language skills!

The class provides a good foundation and it is very helpful that students are required to speak in Spanish from early in the course.

This was my first online class with Berges Institute. I took the beginners course. In my opinion it was a lot easier and effective for me. I really enjoyed it.

The course is packed full of material. It is a lot to get through and absorb in a 10 week class so choosing the right instructor is critical! Fortunately my instructor helped keep us on pace and reviewed homework thoroughly so we could learn and retain the knowledge.

For a begginers course you do leave with a lot of knowledge regarding understanding Spanish. As long as you practice as much as possible you can understand a lot of conversations around you and read quite a bit of Spanish. Speaking and conjugating sentences takes a lot more practice so just keep going with level 2, you'll get there. My instructor was Rolando Gonzalez and he is an incredible instructor reason our begginers group signed up for level 2 together.

I enjoyed the pace of this course. Lots of stuff to remember but it was manageable. Looking forward to my next lesson! Loved that most classes were pretty small and I was able to get lots of practice speaking Spanish.

I was, overall, very happy with the course. The structure is set up very well to allow a beginner to feel like they are learning what they need to know without being overwhelming.
