Frequently asked questions

I need to conduct interviews and explain benefits. Will this help?

Yes. Once you have conversational fluency, you'll be able to conduct interviews, explain benefits, discuss policies, and handle employee relations in Spanish. The grammar-based foundation we provide lets you communicate clearly about any HR topic, even if you occasionally need to look up specific terminology.

Do you teach HR-specific vocabulary and terminology?

We teach conversational Spanish through grammar and sentence-building. The specialized vocabulary for benefits, policies, employment law, and HR procedures can be learned more easily once you have this conversational foundation. Many HR professionals supplement with industry glossaries.

How quickly can I start communicating with Spanish-speaking employees?

Most students can handle basic workplace conversations within 10-15 months of consistent study. This allows you to communicate with Spanish-speaking employees about basic HR matters, with more complex discussions developing as you progress to intermediate proficiency.

Will this help me create a more inclusive workplace?

Absolutely. When HR professionals speak Spanish, Spanish-speaking employees feel more supported and included. You'll be able to communicate directly about important workplace matters, ensuring all employees have equal access to HR services and information.

From the very first class, I learned valuable rules regarding grammar that I never learned in my many attempts to learn Spanish and they have helped remarkably. The lessons are challenging without being overwhelming. I am amazed at how far I've come in this short amount of time. Great program!

For those beginners like me, I recommend that you should take this course until the end. For my experience, this helped me a lot starting from the basics of Spanish and how to use it. Teachers were very nice and approachable.

This is a very well organized and effective course. It is fast paced and requires a significant time investment for necessary memorization. The book and written exercises work well for retention and seeing what you don’t know. Our instructor, Rolando, was excellent. He kept our attention and explained things well. Highly recommend.

This beginner course was better than an introduction. I feel ready for my vacation with an overview of basic language. The instructor was so prepared and patient. Thank you for this opportunity at such a reasonable price.

The classes are amazing. As well as the instructors. I wish it was more than once a week. The lessons are very thorough and it helps work with a native Spanish speaking instructor.
