“I enjoy my lessons with ‘Friendly Spanish’, they are fun and relaxed as well as rewarding. The lessons are adaptable to meet my own requirements while the speed at which I personally learn dictates the pace and approach of the teacher in each session. Having started with the basics I look forward to extending my vocabulary, improving my confidence and possibly tailoring some lessons to my area of employment.”

“As a professor of psychiatry who teaches on PhD and Masters courses in Spain and Latin America I have found “Friendly Spanish” to be an invaluable resource. I need to be able to express myself and understand students with many different accents from across the world. My “Friendly Spanish” teacher provides that informal, one-to-one help that gives me the skill and confidence to do this. And besides that the lessons are sheer fun! I strongly recommend them.”

“The classes Alejandra and her team of teachers have prepared for me were extremely tailored, bespoke and of unrelentingly high standard. They don’t just teach the usual classes: “Hola, dos cervezas por favor”, they wrap the classes around the student’s needs, abilities and difficulties and make it fit like a tailored suit.
In my case, being an architect, they taught me specific terms and vocabulary that are very crucial to my projects. They have prepared the classes based on scenarios that really occurred during my last visit to Spain. Mostly, they have assisted me on raising my confidence levels to converse in Spanish, making my site visits to Spain much more productive and enjoyable.”

“I am a 47 year old solicitor specialising in criminal and family law. As a mature student I was keen that the lessons should be specifically tailored to meet my needs and aspirations. I have not been let down. “Friendly Spanish” is just that; a group of very able, approachable teachers who have really helped to increase my confidence in speaking. I am now starting to think in Spanish which is half the battle and would recommend Friendly Spanish highly.”

“I have had a number of Spanish teachers in London, most of them native speakers who wanted to earn something on the side. But just being a native speaker does not necessarily mean that one is a good teacher. I made very little progress and changed teachers frequently. I have been with Friendly Spanish for over 2 years now and have never regretted my choice. The teachers are very experienced and highly qualified. They tailor classes to your needs and are flexible to accommodate a busy schedule.”

“I am a fund manager in the city and have worked with the Friendly Spanish Team for some years. The classes are tailored to the needs of each student, and mine have changed over a lot the last couple of years. Whatever your reasons are for learning Spanish, and my only reason was to be able to communicate on my travels, each teacher adjusts the lessons to achieve your aims. All teachers are very thorough on the preparation of the classes and they make even a class of learning the subjunctive fun, which is a talent few have. For me they have taken the fear out of learning another language.

I am sure whoever joins Alejandra’s school will have fun learning Spanish!.”
