What Our Students Say They Love About Our Native Spanish Tutors
SpanishBlackbelt is perfect for people who really want to learn Spanish but haven't had much success before. It's also great for those who need Spanish for traveling or work, for new students who want to learn but don't know where to start, for people who want practice that fits their needs, for those who forgot a lot since they last learned Spanish somewhere else, and for people who can read and write Spanish but need help speaking it better.

''Adrian is patient,listens to students and corrects pronunciation and vocabulary tactfully. He is open to questions and I notice at the present level he prompts that the students to utilize the language through presentations, conversations and video listening.

It's a struggle at times; however, I am always looking forward to the class.'' Aug 30 2024
