Insider tips about what future students should not miss
As a beginner with no experience with Spanish whatsoever, two straight weeks of the intensive course is more than enough, if not too much. You don't have time to practice what you just learned, which makes it hard to keep track with everything you are meant to learn. But still, this is a good kick-start as long as you keep it up by practising and try to speak as much Spanish as you can, whenever you get a chance!

Teachers: My first week, I had a great teacher who was patient and tried her best to make me understand everything. My second week was not as great. My new teacher was not as patient and he made me feel lost. It felt as if he had given me up. I am sure he is a good teacher, but i have to say, his sympathy and connection with other people are not. He should work on his social skills.
