Thanks to our innovative in-person methodology, it has never been easy to start speaking Spanish face-to-face. Reach out to us and we will prepare an interactive course for you with one of our expert native speaker teachers!
The type of courses we offer:
Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) General Spanish
Spanish lessons of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival Spanish—needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'—those studying Spanish usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefited from these Spanish classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts for Spanish culture and those hoping to pass a specific exam in Spanish.

Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) Business Spanish
These Spanish lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn Spanish to bolster their work output. For novices, you will find it useful to learn basic greetings and business etiquette. Once you have become more proficient, then reading and writing will come to the fore. Typical students include those concerned with imports and exports, those seeking work in multinational companies, international negotiations and anyone working with international colleagues or administration. Even in our most rudimentary lesson for beginnners, students can expect to finish with decent telephone and e-mail Spanish, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country where the language is spoken.
