TETON COUNTY LIBRARY
Jackson, Wyoming

I'm amazed by how much staff members can say after such a short time.
P. R., Class Instructor
Teton County Library, Jackson, WY

The course materials exposed me to new vocabulary that I would have never learned in school. The course also allowed us to "peer practice" before speaking with Latino patrons.
C., Circulation Library Assistant
Teton County Library, Jackson, WY

The way we have learned Spanish is really practical and effective.  I especially liked partner work with dialogs and role-playing.  It feels great to be able to communicate!
D.S., Youth Services Supervisor
Teton County Library, Jackson, WY

Now that I have some basic Spanish speaking skills, our Latino youth feel more comfortable approaching me for help with homework or with the computers.
A., Youth Services Library Assistant
Teton County Library, Jackson, WY

It really does work! ... I have seen the number of Latinos who frequent the library during the day increase dramatically now that word has gotten out on the Latino grapevine that many members of the staff are proudly wearing name tags that say, Estoy aprendiendo español, ¡Pregúnteme algo! (I'm learning Spanish, Ask me something!)
J. S., Volunteer Coordinator
Teton County Library, Jackson, WY

MESA PUBLIC LIBRARY
Mesa, Arizona

¡Una clase fabulosa! ¡Profesora fabulosa!  And we didn't have to conjugate any verbs!  Gracias!
P.H., Director
Mesa Public Library, Mesa, AZ

The classes were fun, informative and specifically geared to typical library questions and responses.  I would recommend this course to anyone who's interested in being able to understand Spanish on a very basic level in an effort to provide better customer service to our Spanish speaking patronage.
T. C., Branch Operations Supervisor
Dobson Ranch Branch Library

This will pay benefits to our patrons and us for the rest of our careers.

SCOTTSDALE UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT

This class was excellent!  The information is practical and very applicable in the daily interaction with my students.
A. B., First Grade Teacher
Pueblo Elementary School, Scottsdale, AZ

What a great way to learn Spanish!  I have taken lessons before, with very little success.  This finally starts to make sense.
J. U., Fifth Grade Teacher
Cheyenne Elementary School, Scottsdale, AZ

Pronunciation guides are extremely helpful, especially when practicing at home.
J. C., Math Teacher
Arcadia High School, Phoenix, AZ

You've made me think learning Spanish is possible.  Gracias.
P. D., General Aide
Kiva Elementary School, Scottsdale, AZ

I'm learning to put sentences together and ask questions, quick and simple.

A great method of teaching!  Very helpful to remember and understand.

SOUTHWESTERN COMMUNITY COLLEGE
Franklin, North Carolina

I was surprised at the speed at which the students began creating their own sentences. The next day after each class, the students were using what they had learned. Nothing motivates a student more than being able to use the language. The course is great!
S.G., Instructor, Southwestern Community College

I liked the way the material started off simply and then slowly built on our previous knowledge to give us a solid base for communication.  I especially liked the concentration on the spoken word. I appreciated the approach that you did not have to be a master of the language to understand and to be understood.
S.H., Teacher, Macon Middle School

A.A., Bookstore Owner

I’ve learned that with practice and determination, I can master the basics.
D.K., Retired Executive Secretary

I learned how to form sentences, how to get by if in a Spanish-speaking country.
M.L., Jackson Resident

Learning to speak Spanish is great fun.  I can do this!
