My first aim was to talk with my employees and not sound like a complete idiot. My second aim was to speak with friends and I now have a third aim to explore written Spanish in the form of short stories and modern novels. It's been a fantastic journey which I would never have attempted without the help and encouragement of the staff at Sun Spanish. After reading articles and a novel, no matter how imperfectly, renouncing English and speaking in Spanish, no matter how imperfectly, I feel myself falling in love with the language. Who could ask for more. Thank you Sun Spanish. I am a very happy student.

She is personable, patient, very bright and committed to your pursuit of the language. I take online as well as in person lessons and I find her teaching style works well in either setting. Her vast library of teaching tools, regardless of your level, is amazing; you will never get bored with Alessandra! The class sizes are perfect - usually less than 7 and I find that supplemental private lessons are a great compliment to my studies. If you are just starting with the language or a C2 level, you will find that she will meet you where you are in your journey and will walk with you as you progress. I am grateful to have found Alessandra - a wonderful teacher, a good person and someone who I trust to help me on this challenging, yet rewarding journey.

So much depends on the instructor, whether they make you feel comfortable, how much they are able to make it lively, and how they engage you in the language and the culture. Alessandra is a star in all respects. I am learning not only the language but about the country, the culture, the food, and the little idiomatic expressions that help you speak like an Italian. I recommend Alessandra's classes very highly!
