FAQs
How long will it take to become fluent?
Becoming fluent in a language takes years of practice, dedication, and daily immersion in the language. How quickly you learn a language depends largely on the work you do outside of class to excel. You can expect to start to have basic exchanges in Spanish after 3 sessions of classes with us, and you can expect to be conversational after 6-7 sessions.
What if I have to miss a couple classes?
Our sessions run for 9 weeks and meet for 2 hours one day per week. If you need to miss a class, you are welcome to attend a make up on a different day, as long as we have a similar level being offered. Also, your teacher will provide you with weekly homework to practice and would be glad to meet you a few minutes before the next class to help you catch up!
What is the refund policy?
We ask that each of our students make a commitment to completing each session. Our classes are very small, affordable, and interactive, and for that reason we DO NOT provide refunds. Even if you decide not to finish out the session, our wonderful, dedicated teachers are committed to teaching the full session, and so refunds are not given once the classes start. If you register for a class and find that you need to cancel, you may do so up to 24 hours before the class begins. You will be refunded all but a $50 registration fee.
How long will it take for my child to speak Spanish?
Unless you are raising a bilingual child, learning a second language can take time, and mostly depends on the frequency with which your child is practicing. Taking Spanish one day per week for 20-26 weeks will greatly aid in learning Spanish, but will not result in immediate fluency. Fluency takes consistent immersion in the language. But learning Spanish in a fun, relaxed setting at a young age allows kids to start thinking in Spanish. This is the key to lifelong language learning.
What materials will be used during the program?
We use a custom curriculum with material that is a guide to help structure learning, but our more impactful offering is the focus on spoken Spanish. Kids complete crafts, sing songs, and play games. Children may also receive weekly material or a workbook. It is important that children keep this material/workbook handy and share with parents on a weekly basis.
