What other students are saying…
“I have been attending Adam and Laura’s Spanish classes for nearly a year and they have far exceeded my expectations. The classes are friendly, fun, engaging and well structured and I have been really pleased with my progress learning the language. A highlight of my week!”
Emily Cropton
“I highly recommend Marchando Spanish. I am surprised at the speed we have learned things, so much so I can now feel much more confident in communicating when in Spain. It has been so nice to make new friends and acquaintances in our weekly meetings. For anyone who’s serious about learning Spanish, or even just for fun, there‘s no better way to learn”
Mark Taylor
“Loving my Spanish classes. Great fun and learning way more than with Duolingo. Giving me more confidence to speak and I feel I have more understanding when I hear locals speak when I am in Spain.”
Jacqui Mann
“Before joining Adam & Laura’s Beginner’s course I used Duolingo. Since starting the beginner course I believe I have progressed by leaps & bounds. I am now looking forward to the Pre Intermediate course. Thank you for all your support & help.”
Stuart Muir
“I wholeheartedly recommend learning Spanish with Adam and Laura. I had always thought that it would be a difficult language to learn but their technique had me understanding the basics and confidently constructing conversational sentences in no time at all – and the course is lots of fun!”
Elizabeth Rae
“I started as a complete beginner and I am very pleased with my progress. If you’re thinking of learning Spanish I can recommend Marchando Spanish. Laura and Adam are lovely and excellent teachers.”
