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 or even quitting?
Most likely these students are not getting enough real-time practice.
90% of Spanish learners stay in this beginner stage, and never venture on to be able to talk about what they did yesterday or what they used to eat when they were young.

But You Can Be That 10% Who Gets Past The Beginner Stage.

The secret lies in the two main things that take Beginners to the next level.
- Finding interesting and useful content that engages intermediate students
- Focusing on real conversations as you navigate more complex Spanish structures
Luckily, you’re face-to-face with that detour right now.

Chabela Longoria is a Venezuelan instructor who keeps her classes light and fun, while still learning a lot in a short time. She’s teaching the most classes this winter, and for good reason — She’s one of our longest tenured instructors, having taught Spanish for over 10 years!
Her teaching philosophy: Language = Culture
Chabela knows that language and culture are inseparable. She prioritizes cultural context alongside language instruction. When you understand the language, you understand the culture. And when you understand the culture, you understand more of the language.
