At the time of this review, I have completed one language session and just started another session…read more(Advanced Spanish). Overall, I am having great experience with ISL. The pricing for an 8-week course (2hr session) seems pretty reasonable compared to other language schools - it's not the cheapest, but it's not super expensive. I really appreciated the school's administrator's quick responses to all of my questions prior to registering for my course. The school's website provides VERY detailed information about registering for courses, refunds, time commitments, etc. My professor (Rossy) is amazing and very patient in helping her class reach its language goals. LOL, I think she has a worksheet/example for EVERY possible linguistic situation. I do appreciate the small class size, which gives all students a chance to have a more personal experience. Actually, I was quite shocked (in a good way) that a couple other students have been working with Rossy for over five years. Although most of the courses are virtual (I could be wrong about this), I wish that there were some in-person courses/options especially for the weekend sessions. However, I understand that times are changing, and we as a society are moving to a more virtual world. Perhaps, this is outside of ISL's responsibility, but I wouldn't mind the incorporation of at least one in-person event/experience within course. However, I guess arranging an in-person event/excursion could be left to the discretion of the the course's professor and/or the students. All in all, I HIGHLY recommend ISL.

He was not a professional with me, he said that I was the one who needed the school, not the school needed me. All this because I asked to cancel my registration because of my schedule, I saw that I would have to arrive a few days late and knew that I couldn't, also because of the parking, because I was having difficulty to parking, mainly because I was late. Thank God I was able to cancel this and sent an email to formalize it, because I felt threatened by the way he spoke to me, this guy made me cry all day like He was really doing me a favor, like I hadn't paid for it. All this 3 days after I found out that my father has coronavirus, this guy doesn't have the least empathy for people #WORSE I WISH I COULD GIVE 0 stars

I looked forward to being around people who enjoyed teaching English, and meeting students from all around the world. If I ever came across a family member or friend who needed English support, I would definitely send them here as well. From a volunteer perspective, the Center provides so much support and training for its teachers (who do not need to be professional teachers, so this helps), including a ready-made curriculum and textbooks. Though I've been an ESL tutor in the past, having this institutional support was important for me as I wanted to be well-prepared for my students. The teaching set-up also requires each class to be taught by two teachers, which is very helpful! The students come from all around the world and have many different reasons for being in the program. I loved laughing with them, learning from them (as well as my co-teachers!!), and even learning a few things about the English language myself.

I just finished my first course with Spanish Blackbelt and can't wait to signup for my next course!…read more I have been taking Spanish classes off and on since high school and this one has by far been the most effective. I have improved much more in 8 weeks with Spanish Blackbelt than in a semester at a junior college course. The small group means each student will get a lot of attention and nobody will be left behind. My tutor, Eduardo, was excellent. I highly recommend this program.

There is an online placement quiz that helps you select which class is appropriate for you. Here is what I really like about Spanish Blackbelt: The classes are casual; we meet at the local Starbuck's that is very close to my house. The class is small; there are only two of us. There is homework and it can be challenging. There is a strong focus on grammar and spelling. It can be daunting at times, but it is all online and it is very well organized with lots of visual aids. The teacher, Alejandro, is great. He is charming and warm and very encouraging. We speak only Spanish during the class and I've never been made to feel awkward about my rather clumsy skills. I'm only half-way through the Yellow level and have decided to continue to the next level. I truly wish I could wake up one morning and simply know how to speak Spanish. But, I think Spanish Blackbelt might be the next best way to become a Spanish speaker.

I happily came over and was greeted by a really kind lady at the front desk that I believe was one of the instructors. She asked what I was looking to get done, and had me sign in had me pay. She said because the hair was over shoulder length they charge a length fee of an additional $10. Which honestly, that is a very reasonable policy, and $21 is still cheaper than any hair salon ice been to. After a couple minutes handed me over to a student named Patricia. Patricia did a great job and was quick and skilled in her art. She offered a shampoo or for it to dry after as they spray it generously to cut, but I opted for neither as I was on my way home from work and planning to shower once I got home anyway. Definitely will be returning when I want something done with my hair as prices are reasonable, and the people seem friendly.

I was informed that they did but I'd need to come in for a quote/consultation. I went there this past Monday and waited at front desk for 5 mins or so. I decided to ask the person working 10 feet from me if there was anyone taking care of the desk. A woman a few stations down said that she'd be there in a few. When she finally got to me I asked for the price for braids. Was informed that they didn't do braids. I pointed to their price board that had a price for braids, was told that they only did short braids no extensions. If they are teaching students how to waste a (potential) client's time, this is the place to go.
