  • Most private classes (one-on-one or private groups) would last 2 hours each, their minimum length. This minimum length allows you, your peers and your tutor to minimize the time you need to spend commuting relative to the time invested in attending classes. This minimum length also allows you to have sufficient time to do all the class dynamics required to be done at once. This will make you notice significant improvement over time.

  • If still you insist in having one-hour long sessions, we may be able to accept your request as an exception but only if the sessions take place during weekday mornings or early afternoons, and you commit to meeting at least twice per week. The price that will apply will be the higher price that would normally apply to evening and weekend sessions.

  • Spanish immersion classes (8 or more hours per week) however, could last as long as 4 hours each.

  • Each hour will last 55 minutes to accommodate for a 5-minute break and an adequate transition between students.

To apply for our Spanish program and receive a quote in writing and a schedule proposal that considers your preferences and our current availability, please click here.

  • It all depends on how urgent your need to learn Spanish is. Most of our students meet with us anywhere between 2 to 16 hours per week.
  • In addition, students are expected to study at home on their own the same number of hours per week that they meet with their instructor to read in advance what they will be working with on the next class, and to do related homework.
  • Average students complete a full level of instruction after meeting with their Spanish tutor for 16 hours.
  • There are 10 levels of instruction: 4 beginner, 3 intermediate and 3 advanced. We label our levels by color, though, going from pearl (beginner 1) to black (advanced 3).

You can certainly purchase a reduced-price 55-minute one-on-one sample session with your Spanish tutor for:

  • $39 if meeting at a cafe or your tutor's home, or
  • $69 if meeting at your office or home, provided that your home is within our area of influence.

On this sample session, you will have the chance to:

  1. meet your Spanish tutor, and

  2. familiarize yourself with our Spanish program, teaching materials and methods

For their peace of mind, new students will also have the chance to request a change of tutor or a full refund, after having their first regular class, if they think our Spanish program is not compatible with their needs. Students can communicate this request via email within the following 48 hours after their first class. After that deadline they will only be entitled to partial refunds that would correspond to the number of hours not yet used. Sessions missed without proper minimum 24-hour notice would be considered used.

To purchase a sample session, please follow these steps:

  1. Submit an application if you have not done so already. Please do not forget to include a note saying that you are first interested in having a sample session.

  2. Once you are accepted into the program and suggested a time/day to have your sample session, please submit your $39 or $69 fee through our payment center.

  3. Wait up to 5 business days for our confirmation via email.

Our Spanish classes are usually available all year long except during national and religious holidays. They could take place during regular business hours, at night or on weekends.

In order to receive a proposal that considers your schedule preferences and our current availability, please submit a non-commitment  online application. Your application will be responded within 5 business days.

If you only have a limited number of weeks to study with us, you can choose to meet with us from 2 hours per week to 16 hours per week, subject to availability in your area. Typical and minimum length of a session would be 2 hours. Maximum length of a session would be 4 hours.

For example:

  • If you choose to meet with us 16 hours per week, you will complete any of our 10 levels of instruction in 1 week. You will most probably be meeting 4 times per week on 4-hour-long sessions.

  • If you choose to meet with us 8 hours per week, you will complete any of our 10 levels of instruction in 2 weeks. You will most probably be meeting 4 times per week on 2-hour-long sessions.

  • If you choose to meet with us 4 hours per week, you will complete any of our 10 levels of instruction in 4 weeks. You will be meeting 2 times per week on 2-hour-long sessions.

  • If you choose to meet with us 2 hours per week, you will complete any of our 10 levels of instruction in 8 weeks. You will be meeting once per week on a 2-hour-long session.

Please be aware though that in addition to committing to attend your sessions, students are expected to study at home on their own the same number of hours per week that they meet with their instructor and to read in advance what they will be working with in the next class, and to do the related homework. Suggested number of hours per week to dedicate to these at-home activities is the same number of hours that you will be meeting with your tutor. Therefore, meeting for example 2 hours per week with your instructor translates into an extra 2 hours of self-studying at home, adding up to 4 hours per week of total commitment to your Spanish learning.

One-on-One sessions or private (self-assembled groups) can start as quickly as 7 days after your tuition is received. This wait time is required to give us ample time to coordinate all the logistics and for your tutor to adecuately prepare for your first class.

Before submitting your tuition though, you would need to apply to our Spanish program and be accepted.

Your application will be responded within 5 business days. On our response, we will provide you with a quote in writing and a schedule proposal that matches your preferences the closest.

You can schedule make up sessions if you registered for one-on-one classes or for private group instruction, provided that you:

  1. Notify your tutor of this need at least 24 hours before your scheduled session to be missed, AND

  2. Complete all of your sessions within the allocated number of weeks.

This means that you may need to agree with your tutor directly on when to have your make up classes by choosing from his/her availability at the time of your request. If, for example, you are meeting once per week, you may need to meet twice per week in any of the prior or remaining weeks left.

If you registered for private group classes, all students in the group would need to agree.

If attending private classes in person, an alternative to missing classes when traveling is to have your Spanish classes live online at your usual times and days. If you are traveling to a different timezone, class would still need to take place at your regular times and days (usual time zone).

  • If there is a National or Religious Holiday or if Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Year's Weeks fall within your pre-paid term, your term may be extended accordingly to compensate for that Holiday.
  • To see a list of all Holidays observed, please click here.
  • However, sessions will take place during public Holidays if both (1) student(s) and (2) teacher agree on having the session anyway.

With One-on-One classes and private group classes your are required to have a default schedule so that we can guarantee that we will always have time for you on each of the weeks that will have been allocated to you until your expiration date. This means that you are expected to meet regularly with your tutor every week at the same times, days and location.

If your schedule changes regularly, you can consider instead having your classes on a floating schedule which allows you to agree with your tutor on a week-by-week basis on when to have your next session, subject to the times/days that tutor has available in the given week. There may be weeks when you may not be able to find a mutually convenient time/day but a floating schedule would not restrict you with an expiration date as tight as the one you would have with regular classes. Classes will still expire if unused within a reasonable period of time to be defined case by case.

It is unfortunately not possible to alternate meeting locations every other week. Meeting location will need to be the same all throughout the length of your term if meeting in person.

If you are attending one-on-one classes in person and you need to travel from time to time, it may be possible to have some of your classes in person while you are in the city and some of them live online while you are away.
