The most effective ways to learn Spanish are through immersion and one-on-one instruction. Being a busy Washingtonian professional, it is surprising that I was able to achieve just this through my weekly classes with Santiago Montero. Although my lessons are separated only by a window pane from the hustle and bustle of Washington, D.C., I am far removed from my daily routine by the "Spanish-speaking only" tutorial style. Structurally, the classes were tailored to meet my own language goals; and financially, the cost was affordable. Ultimately Santiago's instruction successfully matched my learning speed and style, giving me the confidence, ease and pride to become a Spanish speaker.
