The instructors (I’ve worked with Luz, Ruth and Marco) are engaging, experienced and professional. They are very reasonably priced, flexible to fit my schedule and take place in a relaxed, comfortable environment. I am thrilled with my progress.”
“I enjoy learning Spanish at S.L.C. In class I get to practice conversation along with grammar and useful expressions. And I like how the textbook provides plenty of reviews.”
