The material is comprehensive to get you started speaking, able to have practical conversations in the first couple weeks.

I have been really happy with the classes and my teacher, Juan Carlos, is wonderful. The class size has allowed for a lot of one on one attention, which is greatly appreciated. I look forward to continuing my studies here

I’ve learned a lot, have a lot more confidence in speaking Spanish. I speak it more often to Spanish speakers and less intimidated in speaking Spanish IRL. The flexibility to take a make up class later in the week with another teacher is amazing! Sometimes the Friday make up class doesn’t have anyone else there so it’s like a private class!!!

A lot of information to take in but my teacher made it as simple as it could be! I feel this is a wonderful starting point for someone looking to understand the full language not just some phrases.

Although I am at a bit of a higher level, I thought it necessary to start from scratch. This level is a self assessment to see how much I know. I've also decided to take 3 of the same class for the sake of repetition and enforcing the lesson. All classes are great at helping me to achieve my goal.

I am on week 6 of 10 of Spanish for Absolute Beginners (online), and I love it! We meet once a week for 1 1/2 hours. The time goes by really quickly because the class is fun! Gloria is such an amazing teacher. She calls on students in class so we all participate. At first I was nervous about this, but it forces me to practice the skills I will need to speak Spanish in real life. And she is super patient if/when you make mistakes. I highly recommend this class! It is 100% worth the cost.

This a great introduction to Spanish. I have tried apps in the past, but having designated times to meet and speak with others while learning grammar has helped me to improve so quickly!

I've taken six of the 10 Level 1 beginner classes so far, have thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and have learned a lot of elementary Spanish. I've had experience with three teachers, and they've each been excellent. My favorite, so far, is Monica Negron. I like her peaceful vibe, her friendly nature, and how well organized she is. I love that we can schedule classes around our personal schedules, by changing days and times, as needed. This is key for adult learners, and I'm impressed that Berges created its program around this concept. I plan to continue the program after completing Level 1.

I love how you organize your lessons with vocabulary to study and grammar to work with. The homework is very helpful, and your teachers are wonderful.

I am a beginner, and wasn't sure how I would like Zoom lessons with Spanish. I️ have truly enjoyed this learning process and fully intend to continue. The professors are great and very helpful, each one has a different style and approach to teaching. This variety makes it nice to move between professors gaining different benefits from each one. I️ have also recently discovered the Berges YouTube channel and videos and have been trying to squeeze in one or two of those a week which have been VERY helpful.

The course is organized into easy- to -understand chunks. I am really enjoying learning Spanish again after many years off.

I appreciate the variety and flexibility the course offers. You can chose your instructors and the times and days that work best for you and i like the option of catching up if you miss a session. Each teacher brings their own unique style and approach to teaching but they are consistently engaged and dedicated to their students. I think the course offers excellent value.

I'm enjoying the course so far. I am very busy, and the course has to this point presented sufficient material to be challenging, while not giving me so much information that I fall behind due to my other obligations.

I love the self paced aspect of learning through Berges Institute. There are plenty of class options during the week that will fit a flexible work schedule. I have enjoyed meeting and getting to know the teachers as well as learning from them.
