✔When you finish the course for beginners, you will be able to communicate in Spanish in a simple, but effective way, in daily-life and travel situations.
✔With the online course, you will finish level A1 (beginners) of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).

✔One of the advantages of the online course is: no matter how busy your life is, you can take Spanish lessons because you do not have to follow a class schedule. You do not have to adapt to the course, but the course adapts to you, and you can learn whenever it suits you best.
✔In addition, time management is much more effective than with a regular class because the teacher does not have to divide her attention among the group participants. You will feel like you are in a private Spanish lesson! Your online course is just as time-saving, with the advantage that you do not have to arrange a class schedule with your teacher, and stick to it.
✔Apart from all that, the price per lesson in the online course is much more affordable than the a private lesson with a certified teacher with years of experience (👇 please read below the information about the price and course payment).

✔There is no standard amount of time to conclude the Spanish course for beginners: the duration of it depends on the student. Each of the 42 lessons has a video class of approximately 15 minutes and the minimum time it takes to complete a lesson is 45-60 minutes.
✔The more time the student spends learning, the quicker and more visible the results of this effort will be. In order not to get discouraged, you should consider the study of a foreign language an investment that gives very promising results.
