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.

Very good introduction to Spanish. Great for the complete beginner or for someone with a very basic knowledge of Spanish. Good instructors, good class participation and interesting content. Highly recommended!

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.

Maria Chaname was a great teacher. She was very knowledgeable, supportive and kind. She taught in a way that supported my confidence in practicing a new language without feeling judged if I said something incorrect.
Overall the class does feel a bit fast paced and more techniques or practices in class to support memorization would be helpful.

I’ve really enjoyed taking this Spanish class with Silas. He is very kind, patient, and approachable, which makes learning feel comfortable and encouraging. One thing I especially appreciate is how he consistently reviews previous lessons, helping reinforce what we’ve learned and making sure no one feels left behind. His teaching style makes the class engaging and easy to follow, and I feel more confident building on my Spanish skills because of his approach.

Gloria had been a fantastic teacher and the on line programme has really worked.
Gloria is really patient but drives us to achieve. Having homework and going through it in class helps keep focussed. The programme is good too - I just need to practice more!
I am really enjoying the course and intend to continue to the next level.

This is a "refresher" for me as I took Spanish in high school. It is helpful for getting my brain thinking about what I knew a long time ago. Able to make me feel comfortable with verb conjugations and speaking in front of peers (and the teacher-Edgardo-for correction is helpful).

The class and teacher are very helpful! I feel that I am receiving a well executed plan for learning a basis for understanding and speaking the language. It is important for me to have accountability in some way; so the weekly class, with homework helps me stay motivated and committed to studying.
