Frequently asked questions

I need to explain financial products and services. Will this help?

Yes. Once you have conversational fluency, you'll be able to explain concepts, answer questions, and discuss financial topics. The grammar-based foundation we provide helps you construct clear explanations. Financial terminology becomes easier to incorporate once you're conversational.

Do you teach financial or banking vocabulary in Spanish?

We teach general conversational Spanish. The specialized vocabulary for investments, banking, insurance, and other financial services can be learned more easily once you have conversational fluency. Many professionals supplement with industry glossaries.

How long before I can serve Spanish-speaking clients?

Most students can handle basic client conversations within 10-15 months, building to more complex financial discussions around the 16-24 month mark as they reach intermediate proficiency. The timeline depends on your starting level and study consistency.

Will conversational Spanish be enough for professional financial discussions?

Conversational fluency is the foundation for all professional Spanish communication. Once you're conversational, you can discuss financial matters, build rapport with clients, and explain services. Industry-specific terms are easier to learn and use once you have this base.

I originally skipped level 1 and started with level 2 because I already had the bacis down, but since the monthly membership allows me to take any class I want, whenever I want, I decide to try some level 1 classes for extra practice and thought they were great. I ended up learning something new in each class.

The program has been outstanding since my initial contact. The website and materials are clear and easy to navigate. The material/learnings move quickly and always reinforced with homework. the price is VERY attractive. The learning group size perfect. Convenient moveable classes (and greta video classes) From time to time the instructor may change but the training is similar so no break in continuity Salsa Bermudez is wonderful. Gloria is a breath of fresh air- smart and a great teacher too. Terrific balance of learning and speaking to reinforce the subject matter. 1000% recommend

I enrolled in the Beginner's Class as someone who had somewhat of a foundation from my high school spanish classes. Taking the course has helped me not only relearn a lot of the material, but also learn new material in an organized and easy manner. My teacher was wonderful and taught the class in a very engaging manner. I plan on continuing to take more courses with Berges Institute in hopes of eventually becoming fluent in the language.

As someone who grew up hearing Spanish in the household and "learning it formally" in high school, I continued to struggle with grasping the foundation and grammar. Monica Negron and the way she approached teaching level 1 was incredibly impactful. This approach really allowed me to understand and grasp concepts that I couldn't for years. The pace and class size is perfect and intentional and I look forward to continuing my studies in level two.

I love this class and the teacher! She covers a lot of material in a short amount of time and she uses a system that helps us learn to speak, read and understand the language. I did not give five stars because, over a 90 minute period, I would like a bit more variety. For instance, it would be great to have the chance to watch a 5-6 minute video halfway through the class and then discuss what we heard and the watch it again after the discussion! I recall doing that in a previous language class. In short, anything to break up the patterns of the class, I think, will make it more enjoyable for the online student.

The level is very well paced and excellent for a beginner of the language. The methodology is very good and leaves the student improving in both the grammar and vocabulary with every class.

Très satisfait des cours de ce premier niveau, c'est bien fait avec la méthode de Graf, on t'enseigne peu à peu la grammaire et le vocabulaire, pour d'abord comprendre la langue et comment est sa structure, on commence déjà à faire des phrase, à répondre à des questions, à traduire... Les profs aussi sont très bien... Je suis très satisfait et content d'avoir trouvé ce site BERGES Instute ! Je m'attaque déjà à mon deuxième niveau et je compte terminer tous les niveaux jusqu'au cinquième.

Appreciate the flexibility of classes available & being able to choose another class instead of missing a session is a great option. Both instructors I have experienced were helpful and patient and they did a good job of covering class material in time allotted. The work seems appropriate and the material is suitable for beginners although I think it is more helpful having been exposed to the language in another setting. This class is a good basic start for someone wanting to get a better grasp on language.
