Spanish Institute

I have been taking classes through the Spanish Institute for over 2 years. The instructors are kind, patient, and easy to talk with. They do a wonderful job of making you feel comfortable despite the many mistakes that are made when learning a new language. The online classes are very interactive, and I feel I get just as much out of those as I did when the classes were in person.

About three years ago I Googled where to take Spanish classes in the Twin Cities, and the Spanish Institute was one of the results. I decided to try it and am so grateful I did! I ended up taking almost all of their courses from beginner to intermediate to advanced and just finished superior. Having no previous Spanish background before, I am now able to carry on complex conversations, communicate easily during travel in Spanish-speaking countries, and even use my Spanish frequently at my work place. I now know that small, immersion style classes like this truly work. The instructors are excellent and the progression of the classes is rigorous and logical to truly make strong progress quickly. It's an excellent program!!

I enjoy the classes very much and am learning a lot. the 3 hour sessions go by quickly, with much practice speaking and constant learning new grammar and vocabulary. The instructor are great--personable and very detail oriented.

Took two advanced conversational classes here. No complaints but also wasn't astounded.
