I started taking Spanish classes here. It is great because the class size is super small, so the…read moreinstructor works at a pace that is best for the class. Unfortunately, I had to stop going because the scheduled time just wasn't working for me since I work long hours in Santa Fe. I would have kept with it, if it weren't for that -- but there are various times and days of the week available so everyone should be able to go. Mi Gusta SpanishABQ!

My wife and I drove from Phoenix for this weekend immersion course, and It was well worth it…read more This is a great course. I took the 'beginner' as I had a few years of HS Spanish long ago. My wife took the 'intermediate' course because although she had her masters in Spanish it had been many years since she spoke the language. In brief, the professors did a terrific job with materials and lessons. Each of the three teachers switched through the two groups for different lessons, which gave us a nice perspective of styles, accents and vocabulary/ grammar. The professors were very knowledgeable and fun. The lessons were well organized and suited to our levels. They answered questions, encouraged us, and made us feel very comfortable in our attempts to speak the language. Las professoras son muy intelligentes, divertida y muy bonita tambien! Muchas gracias amigas! Eduardo y Margarita

This class is structured to introduce you to Spanish language and the cultures where it is used, in…read morea more organic and usable fashion. I have taken Spanish in the past (a very, very long time ago), and the way this is put together did not seem intuitive at first, but I'm so glad I'm in this class. It's incredibly well organized and I'm learning so much. Instead of walking away with days of the week and months, etc. you are walking away from your first class understanding how to speak to somebody that's what you really want out of a language right? They do speak to you in Spanish in class and it's hard sometimes, but everyone is in the same boat and the instructor that I've had has been supportive. In addition, the way in which the Spanish is taught, using the cultures of the different countries that are Spanish speaking as a source for discussion and learning is wonderful. I'm getting so much more out of this classthan learning how to speak Spanish.

During a recent class I tried to answer a question using the Spanish word submarinismo. The…read moreinstructor first ignored me and then, thinking that she didn't hear me, I repeated it. She then spent about a half a minute degrading me in from of the class stating that she knew of no such word and that I probably made it up. Before the next class she told me (in private) that the word actually did exist. This attitude toward some students seems to be a consistent part of the how classes are taught.

Lots of wonderful fabrics I haven't seen in my towns fabric store, including some by local artists. Such a treat. The lovely woman helping me was a delight as well.
