What other students think…

I have found Laura and Adam’s Spanish courses a tremendous help with grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. I have over the years tried various Spanish books and CDs but none have been as easy to follow and helpful as these Spanish courses.

Martin Russell

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 sincerely recommend Spanish classes run by Adam and Laura. They are informative and fun, well-structured and relaxed, rich in new material – vocabulary, grammar, new constructs – and at the same time relaxed and unpressurised. In every session we have games, jokes and a lot of laughter. The groups are small and the participants are supportive of one another. You learn easily and progress steadily. Five stars.

Magdalena Thomson

Before joining Adam & Laura’s Beginner’s course I used Duolingo. Since starting the 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 lived in Spain and in Mexico more than 10 years ago now, and I have not been able remain very fluent in conversational Spanish. I have tried several methods of listening to Spanish programs to obtain practice, none of which worked very well. I have found that Laura and Adam’s courses are very clear and focused. I have achieved great success in my understanding and my conversation really quickly.

David Huck

Welcoming, friendly and relaxed! An excellent, very well structured course which I can highly recommend.

Kirsty McIntosh

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.
