I highly recommend these classes. Luis has been my teacher for a few years now and my Spanish has improved much more than I would have imagined.

He's very intuitive at understanding my skill level while providing the perfect amount of challenging exercises based around my interests, hobbies and goals. I've had lessons with him that he's improvised on the spot based on a conversation I've had on the street or with Spanish friends, building grammar and conversational structures around phrases or concepts that I had difficulty understanding. Luis is a pro.

I look forward to these lessons every week and have recommended him to friends and family.

I have taken virtual lessons with the owner, Luis, on and off since 2019. I have paused and returned to classes three times! I find myself returning to classes before I travel, so that I can refresh my beginner/intermediate skills.

Luis listens very carefully and prepares material related to my goals and interests. He is open minded and adaptable. For example, when I wanted to translate some of my favorite songs, we did that for 10 weeks. Again, when I was preparing for an art class in Ciudad de México, where I needed to learn complex photography vocabulary, he was there to help me for another 10-15 weeks. And most recently, when I was preparing for another art class in Barcelona, where I need to learn more weird vocabulary, he was ready to help.

The price at ESSLingua is fair.  The quality of personalization and attention is top notch.

Thank you, Luis, for your patience over the years and all your help!

Luis is an amazing teacher. His style of teaching is very dynamic and spontaneous. Often he will divert from a specific exercise to inject a story or video or media that reinforces the subject being studied. He encourages personal conversation at the start of the class which sets a great mood for relaxed and engaged learning.
Great way to learn!!

Spanish classes with Luis is a great way to challenge your brain while learning a useful skill.

In the ~1.5 year that I've been taking classes, I feel that I've improved my Spanish tremendously even though I only have class once a week. I went from a very limited vocabulary and remembering almost no grammar from High School to being able to communicate pretty effectively with Spanish speakers now.

I enjoy taking classes with Luis because it's always something new. He takes into account what skills I need to work on and what my interests are as part of the class content. We're following a book, but there's a ton of other supplementary content. He's always well-prepared for each class and very engaging. The customization allows us to move through content that I already know quickly and linger on things where I need more practice.

What a great way to learn! I highly recommend it.

My wife got me Spanish lessons as a Christmas present.  Luis is a wonderful teacher!  He is extremely patient and adapts the training materials to ensure progress. Our weekly sessions are a mix of vocabulary and grammar practice conversations, podcasts, videos, third party apps, etc.

Highly recommend!

I have been taking classes from Luis for almost a year, and I am so happy that I found him! I grew up in Spain and Mexico, and I am passionate about languages, especially Spanish. Luis’ classes are always interesting, very informative, and challenging. Luis is very good at integrating videos and exercises that go along with our conversations. I have learned a lot of new vocabulary, as we have talked about topics such as the history of Mexico, the history of Spain, Mexican writers, traditional dances, and many other topics. Luis has tuned into my individual needs and interests as a learner, and this has been so helpful. Luis is a genuine, kind, and thoughtful person, and he is an outstanding teacher. Muchísimas gracias Luis!

I took Spanish classes with Luis for over a year and I have improved and can speak beginner Spanish. Luis is kind, gentle and patient. He provides great resources, such as, Dreaming Spanish, that helps me to practice my Spanish. When I can afford it, I will continue learning Spanish with Luis. Thank you so much Luis, I truly appreciate you helping me learn Spanish.
