    I personally enjoy this course. It challenges me to put effort into my Spanish and forces me to express myself as a professional. As I started to work more and more with native Spanish speakers I became concerned about sounding credible and began to feel shy when I had to speak and/or write in Spanish. I now feel a bit more comfortable and less nervous if had to reply to an email in Spanish. I am glad all my assignments are corrected immediately so that I can avoid making similar mistakes.

    This online course also provides videos and grammar exercises for those who may need a little extra help with verbs and nouns. The other great thing is that the professors are always available to help. This is the kind of course that will introduce you to how Latin American countries communicate in the "business world". Overall, this course has met my expectations.

    I look forward to completing Part 2 of the course.

    I have not actually completed the class yet. This is a great program and the material is practical and relevant. The professors are very involved and more than happy to help us as we progress through the course.

    It's a great program for working professionals as there is some flexibility and make up weeks built into the program. In my personal experience, it's been more than just the course work. It's given me the tools and confidence to search outside of the course as well for ways to improve my own fluency.

    I will complete the first three months in just a few short weeks.
