More than a teacher!! Patient, understanding, very flexible, and of course I can study with Fran from anywhere in the world via zoom!!! I wish I had started sooner! I can now actually have conversations with Spanish people!!! Best feeling ever

Having being with Hablemos for 5 years, they provide amazing support towards your education tailored to your needs as especially coming from a student's perspective, Hablemos has helped me through my GCSE course starting from the basics to regular review sessions which provide the chance to consolidate understanding. Wish I had found Francisco sooner! Highly recommend Hablemos. :)

Amazing! I honestly could not recommend Hablemos enough! Fantastic teaching, not only of the language but of the culture and society as well. I have had individual classes with Fran for the past year alongside studying A level Spanish at my school. His lessons were a huge help and I really noticed the difference in my confidence when speaking the language and at school against my peers. The teaching at Hablemos is effective and often based on practise questions and exercises which meant I could pick up other skills from each lesson such as cultural context and general knowledge of the Hispanic World. Over the year I have seen my passion for the language grow and I am very grateful for the time I got to spend learning at Hablemos.

I have been learning Spanish as an adult for over a year and a half. I enjoy the lessons immensely, as does everyone in my group, and think I am making good progress, despite having only limited time to study, away from lessons. The teaching is excellent: appropriately and skilfully matched to the group of learners. The mix of reading, speaking, listening and reading means lessons are always interesting and I like the way grammar is taught in context. I have also enjoyed learning about the culture of Spanish-speaking countries. The ethos of the school is very supportive and I love the teacher's enthusiasm, patience and sense of humour.

I would highly recommend Hablemos. The teacher is from Panama and has also spent many years teaching and working in Spain, so has in depth knowledge of both Latin American Spanish and Castilian. Lots of cultural, geographical knowledge of both Latin America & Spain. Also a chef, so culinary knowledge of cultures too. - means very interesting conversational topics on which to try out your Spanish! Follows a programme from books at appropriate level, but this is supplemented with a wide range of other resources. Confidence in speaking is strongly encouraged, no matter the level in a non-intimidating setting, so you feel at ease to have a go. Regular homework set, so you can work at home between classes.
