    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I improve my Spanish in South Pasadena, CA and what are my options in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using special programs, you have four main opportunities for learning Spanish interactively in South Pasadena, CA. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, ask about the centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are a little more affordable.) Your second option can be local for-profit language academies that are cheaper and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, international learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Fourth, you can opt for a private Spanish tutor in South Pasadena, CA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local South Pasadena, CA and online Spanish tutors.

    🎟 Is it affordable to learn Spanish and what are the ballpark lesson costs for Spanish tutors?

    For university and college courses you can estimate Spanish course cost by dividing annual tuition by ten (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the price of 45-48 class hours each semester. Language academies and private Spanish tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the most budget-friendly Spanish tutors can be found online, with rates on Preply averaging 15 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor location, ratings and student demand. Average student satisfaction for Spanish lessons on Preply is 4.95 out of 5 stars.

    📚 How much Spanish do I need to know to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared pass a few pre-requisites. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework volume and testing, so research the details in advance. With personal Spanish tutors you can read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like classes for students of A, B, or C leves, etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Spanish not easy and are there ways to learn it faster?

    Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Spanish. In reality, you can gain basic Spanish fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback five hours a week you will be able to understand many phrases, have simple conversations, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast and affordable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Spanish. After acquiring basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Spanish tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced level practitioners.

    🤷 How long does it take to learn Spanish?

    Some people just have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Spanish will require at least 600 hours of dedication. The required duration of time can differ a lot depending on your existing level of Spanish or proficiency in other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch television, try typing using your new language skills, look for native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Spanish out loud. If this is a greater challenge than you had anticipated you can also take conversational Spanish classes online.

    🤳 What are my options when choosing the Spanish instructor?

    In language learning academies, you can possibly choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, absolutely! The largest selection of tested Spanish tutors with full profiles and true reviews is available on online language learning marketplaces like Preply.

    🗓 What's the lesson schedule like?

    Colleges usually offer classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools typically have shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, the number of lessons is really up to you, with early morning, day, evening and night classes available, on weekdays and/or weekends.
