Spanish Is The Most Taught Language In The U.S…
Yet Only 10% Ever Get Past The Beginner Stage. Why?
You probably know a lot more people who know some surface-level Spanish than you do people who are fluent, or even close to it. And while I’m sure 1 or 2 of them are still new to Spanish, most of them have probably been on that level for years.
So the question becomes, if they have already invested so much time and effort into Spanish, why are they stalling out, trapping themselves — and even quitting — just a mile away from their fluency dream?
The truth is, they just don’t know how to get out of the beginner’s rut.
You’re past 90% of Spanish learners, so 90% of Spanish education content can’t help you. Once you’re the person trying to learn how to talk in the past tense, or tell the time, or even just understand others better, finding anything that can teach you becomes almost impossible.
But You Can Be That 10% Who Gets Past The Beginner Stage.
While yes, the complexity of intermediate Spanish normally stops anyone from escaping the Beginner’s rut. The secret lies in the two main things that take Beginners to the next level.
1) Finding interesting and useful content that engages intermediate students
2) Focusing on real conversations as you navigate more complex Spanish structures
Luckily, you’re face-to-face with that detour right now.
Enter: Intermediate Spanish 1
In 8 weeks, we’ll take you from reviewing the present tense to learning how to express what you did yesterday, using the preterite tense, and more. By the end of the 8 weeks, you’ll know how to…
- Use the preterite tense to talk about completed actions (all intermediate and above students know this).
- Work with reflexive verbs (like levantarse, despertarse, ponerse), useful for detailing daily routines and expressing emotions.
- Add another set of 100 common verbs to your toolkit.
- Understand time expressions and use them naturally.
- Improve your listening comprehension with longer, real-world sentences.

What Our Happy Students Are Saying:
“I've been taking Spanish classes at Salud for four years. The classes are fun, the instructors are excellent, and when I traveled to Ecuador people could understand me! I highly recommend them.”
“I can't speak highly enough of Salud and its owner/head teacher. She knows what she is doing. She knows the language and its regional variations. Her pedagogy is developed, methodical, and ensures focus on all four skills of reading, writing, listening, and speaking more or less equally. But best for those who want to improve listening and speaking, which can be hard to find in a language class. This is great for all levels, even lifetime learners who want to not only maintain but also improve.”
“Sarah is a fabulous teacher. I took in person classes pre-covid and am in zoom-based classes now. I was a little concerned that the online courses wouldn’t be very engaging… I was wrong. She’s a very enthusiastic and engaging person no matter the format/medium. 👏🏼 So yeah, if you’re reading this thinking “should I?”, yes, do.”
“You get what you put into classes, and I enjoyed having homework even if I did fall behind!”
“Salud has helped me have better dialog with my Spanish-speaking friends.”
“The instructor was lively and had great facility with the course materials and with engaging the class. I did not realize the class would be Spanish immersion, and it did help to hear Spanish being spoken (maybe just a bit slower!). I appreciate the course materials, they are well designed and helpful in learning new concepts.”
"The instructor is a continually positive and very helpful teacher. Any question is explored in a very satisfactory manner. I have found myself able to use much of what I've learned from these classes in a professional setting. It has been very useful.
I like the free-flowing nature of the course - a bit of discussion of articles, current events mixed with grammar. I liked not following a strict, book-based outline. I also really liked the zoom format, which makes it possible to attend a class from anywhere that has internet access.
The exercises given for homework and in class were well thought out and helped me obtain a deeper understanding of Spanish.
I loved the reading and listening homework assignments, followed by class discussion. This gave me an opportunity to learn new vocabulary and grammar points while having interesting content. I liked the mixing in structured grammar lessons.
I loved the course. The teacher is very approachable and has great energy and makes the class fun.
The variety of lesson types used, multimedia, and fun, engaging content. She encouraged and praised each person's contributions, allowing equal time for each, and took interest in our stories, and our experiences, which served as a very good way to draw us in.
The homework exercises were helpful, as well as the instructor's additional input throughout the class based on real-world situations, is something I also really appreciated. Good energy from her for this online platform.
