As a medical professional, not knowing a bit of Spanish, the instructor made it easy to understand and fun to follow along by using the stories of Hector and Maria.
The course was informative and useful. I feel that I was exposed to a lot of material that will help me when conversing with my Spanish-speaking patients.
This course was very helpful and had a lot of useful information in it. It was very refreshing to know that the instructor didn’t expect us to know everything and be able to speak fluently at the end of the course. I enjoyed her teaching style and it made reading the lessons enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this course to my co-workers!! Great job everybody!
It was very helpful in my work as an RN. Looking forward to trying out my new language on Spanish speakers to see how well they think I did!
Thank you for this course! It was very helpful. I’m still in the early stages of Spanish learning, and your approach, “Survival Spanish,” emphasizing basic grammar/sentence structure and vocabulary learning, has helped me in ways I have not seen anywhere else. By not over-emphasizing complex grammar and verb conjugations in the beginning, it’s been much easier to get a start just using the language to communicate, and build up confidence first.
