    I have already learned more from one class than I did from 6 years of on-again off-again Duolingo. Estoy muy feliz! Thank you so much!

    "When you live in the Spanish-speaking world here in Mexico... You need practical, everyday Spanish I could use right away."

    Hola. My name is Amy Whitney, and like you, I am an expat who also had to learn Spanish as an adult.

    Trust me when I say that I completely understand how hard it can be and WHY so many people struggle to learn conversational Spanish.

    For over 14 years, I tried Rosetta Stone, Duolingo, taking private lessons, and even travelling to different Spanish-speaking countries to 'be immersed'... but nothing worked!

    It wasn't until I started focusing on learning how people speak in real-life that things started to make sense and finally stick.

    The reason many expats struggle to learn is because the majority of Spanish courses teach 'general' Spanish with a heavy focus on extensive grammar and seemingly useless vocabulary rather than teaching essential, practical language skills.

    With our Spanish lessons, you will learn the conversational Spanish that you can immediately go out and use. This makes learning exciting while helping you to remember what you have learned so you can FINALLY start building foundation to reach new levels!

    Heather Fischer, Expat Spanish Lessons student review

    I had previously taken a Spanish course for beginners with a strong grammar focus and was extremely frustrated.

    I couldn't be happier with the progress I have made! I am so much more confident to speak and understand basic phrases in stores, restaurants, taxis etc. I highly recommend this course!

    I found that the Spanish course and how it's structured helped me speak and understand more of the Spanish language.

    The Spanish from Zero course is designed for a beginner students and gives a great base to continue learning.
