The curriculum of the classes was clear and organized but also allowed for time for conversation which was the best way for me to learn so my tutor was able to shape the class that worked best for me. I thoroughly enjoyed everything about it.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://testimonials-spanishblackbelt.tumblr.com/post/25925325210</link><guid>http://testimonials-spanishblackbelt.tumblr.com/post/25925325210</guid><pubDate>Tue, 26 Jun 2012 09:43:06 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Lois Borgenicht

&lt;p&gt;I had a fantastic first session with a Brooklyn tutor. The curriculum and small group setting allowed the tutor to tailor lessons to my and my classmate&amp;#8217;s abilities. The class has helped me to improve my grammar, vocabulary, and confidence in speaking in just a few weeks.

I took Spanish throughout high school and college, and without practice over the past 10 years I did not retain it. I purchased Rosetta stone about 2 years ago to start studying it and that helped to get me learning the basics again but since the entire program is in Spanish and there is no one to ask questions after a certain point I realized I needed additional help.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;I started taking Berlitz Spanish classes which is sponsored by my job but much of the work is still on your own online and the pace was not that great which became very frustrating.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;You also don’t get to practice hands on much because most of the work is done online and alone.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;So in searching for a better way to learn Spanish I found spanishblackbelt online.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;It is not paid for by my job but it defiantly is worth the investment.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;I am becoming much more confident in speaking Spanish and realizing that I know more than I thought because I can now practice with my instructor.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;In three weeks I can say I see much improvement with my Spanish speaking and much of the things I did not understand in the past are being clarified with the one on one learning environment.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;As far as the customer service I was also happy that I was able to restructure my days in order to learn at a pace that was more comfortable for me.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;I thought that was great for the school to work with me even after the class started.  I will recommend this program to others.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://testimonials-spanishblackbelt.tumblr.com/post/6825362036</link><guid>http://testimonials-spanishblackbelt.tumblr.com/post/6825362036</guid><pubDate>Thu, 23 Jun 2011 09:21:53 -0400</pubDate><category>spanish classes</category><category>Spanish Black Belt</category><category>Spanish program</category><category>spanish blackbelt</category><category>speaking Spanish</category><category>Spanish instructor</category><category>speaking Spanish</category><category>learn spanish</category><category>submission</category></item><item><title>spanish black belt</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Spanish black belt is well organized and provides students with ample one on one time with the professor.
