Spanish classes in Lorain

I can't believe how far I have come in just 10 weeks of Spanish class through Berges. With the small group size of each class, I'm able to ask every question that comes up, review all of my homework, and get lots of practice speaking Spanish with my classmates and professor. Speaking of professors, I can not speak highly enough of Rolando. He is engaging, clear, and has lots of ways to explain the language that help me make sense of how it's different than English. This makes Spanish feel more natural to me, as opposed to always trying to translate in my head. I'm so grateful that my friend recommended Berges to me, and I recommend it to everyone who asks about my new found linguistic skills! Don't hesitate - just commit to a class once a week and you'll be amazed at how quickly you can navigate a simple conversation with another Spanish speaker.

So far, I have had a great experience with the Berges Institute and my teacher Claudia! The course for beginners is well paced and small classes allow for lots of conversation practice. Claudia is very patient and covers material thoroughly, practicing key vocab and rules until we understand.

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.

I enjoyed the beginner level course. the majority of classes I took with Silas, and he is a very good teacher. I am looking forward to level 2.

I really enjoyed taking this class and will be continuing to level II, and beyond! The textbook was very clear and useful, and the instruction was outstanding - Rolando was engaging, fun, explained concepts well, encouraged participation from everybody, and made class something I looked forward to each week. Administration is also top notch, very responsive, organized, and on top of things. I also appreciate receiving the follow-up emails every week with homework, grammar notes, and blog posts to keep students connected to learning. l'm very pleased and impressed all around with the quality of the teaching and the way this business is run. One of the best language schools in NYC I've attended (I've also studied French, Italian, and German at the premiere learning institutions here for those languages). I initially wasn't convinced that I wanted to invest my time in learning Spanish since I had no immediate purpose or motivation for it (i.e. for work or travel) and just took it up for fun, but had such a good first experience that I'm now kind of obsessed with improving my Spanish as much as possible! :D

I am very impressed with the course structure and competence of Instructors. The classes were super interactive. Being a newbie, I started this course on a nervous and self-doubting note. However, I feel very confident speaking basic Spanish after finishing it. Highly recommended for anyone willing to embark on this journey!
