The Program

The program is designed to provide an «immersive» structure where you will have classes 5x/week for 1 hour. This provides consistency and overall a faster and cost effective approach to reaching Spanish fluency. You will meet daily with the same tutor through the Zoom platform. Every class is recorded and made available to study and review. All you need is a notebook and pen, no need to purchase any extra books!
