Frequently Asked Questions


Although most of our students have been very successful with the help of our Spanish classes, we cannot guarantee that ALL students will achieve the results that they are aiming at.

Our track record of success though is impressively high. If you do not believe us, please take some time to read the testimonials that current and former students have posted over time on independent reviews sites such as Google Reviews or Yelp.

Students increase their chances of achieving the results that they are aiming at by:

  • Attending all of their classes on time
  • Coming to their classes well rested
  • Self-studying at least the same number of hours per week than the weekly hours that they meet with their Spanish tutor

You will be meeting with one of our Native Spanish speaking tutors on private sessions to last anywhere between 1 to 4 hours. During this time you will go through as many real-life exercises as possible, stopping every so often to discuss possible points of improvement.

When an exercise is not responded correctly, your tutor will assist you:

  • Identifying the exact place where you made a mistake and giving you an opportunity to correct yourself first
  • Giving you hints of what you need to consider to get the right response
  • Providing you with the correct answer if the hint is not enough
  • Explaining you why that is the correct answer and why the others are not quite right
  • Practicing with you with similar exercises created on the spot
  • Referring you to sections on our online student center where you can review related theory that could help you review concepts where weaknesses are identified

The number of hours or levels that you need to purchase all depends on what your starting level is and the score you would like to achieve on your test.

Normally, students will note significant improvement after completion of each 16-hour package they purchase.

If you are a student new to the language, you may be required to complete:

  • at least three packages of 16 hours to obtain a passing score

  • at least six packages of 16 hours to obtain a good score

  • nine packages of 16 hours to obtain an excellent score.

  • You will be using real practice exercises that have been compiled by our school over the course of the years.
  • You will invest most of your time practicing with exercises typical to the type of test that you will be preparing for (If the test were not to include, for example, a verbal component, we will not waste valuable time improving your verbal skills).
  • You will have access to this material 24x7 through our online student center that will be accessible by you at no extra cost.

Our tutors are not only native Spanish speakers, but also have the skills required to teach the language effectively, and the flexibility and smartness to be able to tailor your class to prepare you for any standardized test.

All of our tutors are perfectly capable of guiding our students in a way that maximizes the chances of achieving a high score on their exam, whichever that exam is. Please note that all standardized tests have a lot in common. What varies between them is the level of complexity of their questions, the format in which the questions are asked and whether they have all skills components (grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, listening, and speaking) or just some of them. We have an excellent track record preparing students for all standardized tests. Our students do pass and achieve the scores that they are looking for provided that they are committed to the process.

All of our Spanish tutors are cream of the crop. They are highly educated, carefully screened and extensively trained in the science and art of tutoring Spanish with our method. They are also energetic, enthusiastic and strongly passionate about teaching and sharing their culture.

Yes, you can join a Small Group, just be aware that the material covered in this class format will not cover material specific for any exam. These small groups, even though they will cover Everyday Conversational Spanish and not Industry-specific Spanish, will still provide significant value at a reduced cost, especially considering that, at the beginning, there is a lot of basic material that needs to be addressed first.

  • To access a current list of all small groups available, please click here.

We are unfortunately unable to match individual students interested in preparing for a standardized test together. It is the student himself who enrolls in private one-on-one classes or self-assembles his own group with friends and colleagues that share the same level, interests, timing and schedule preferences. Our language school cannot introduce students to any self-assembled private group. These groups are conformed by students who value their privacy significantly and already feel comfortable with one another.
