Long-term

Speakeasy is an extraordinary language learning school. I am in my third month and all I have received is consistent energy, passion and commitment from my teachers to help me succeed at Spanish language learning. I would call out Profesora Ana Eva who has a style so inclusive and so committed to every person in the class, I am making progress with Ana and so is everybody else in my group. There is first class communication from the Admin team who keep me updated regularly. A learning experience I will never forget and the most important thing – I’m not forgetting the skill of a new language, because Speakeasy is helping me succeed.

Super fun school! Took both online and in person classes. The teachers are all super nice and make learning Spanish fun. They have weekly activities where you can meet other students and experience Spain. The staff is friendly and professional. No complaints I had a great time here!

It’s a great experience, a chance to meet many interesting people, see new places and speak a new language. I like the way things are arranged at the school. The teachers are very professional. You start speaking Spanish very quickly. It seems that you just chat with friends, and then you notice that you understand people around you, you speak Spanish! It’s cool.

I’ve been a student at speakeasy for a month and a half now and it’s been going even better than I could’ve expected. We started learning practical Spanish from day 1 and by the end of the first week I was already able to have basic conversations with cashiers, friends, and people I met while out and about. There’s no better motivation than being able to use the words and phrases you learn in class to immediately connect with people. Of course the quality of learning also stems from the quality of teaching, and I can’t speak highly enough of my professor at the school Cristina Revenga. In addition to a varied pedagogical approach (which keeps the whole class engaged for 4 hours at a time) and an endless amount of enthusiasm for the subject, she’s also a great source of knowledge about Spanish culture. She’s constantly recommending songs, books, food, festivals and other ways to engage with the language and culture outside of class. My classmates also bring a diverse range of backgrounds to the classroom. It’s great learning about Camino de Santiago with an architect in class who can talk about the history of Romanesque architecture in Spain, or learning about linguistic similarities between Spanish and Swedish, Dutch or German from students from those countries. Basically if you’re interested in learning Spanish and are curious about taking an immersive approach, you can’t go wrong with this academy.
