ABOUT OUR CLASSES
What can I expect from my first class?
During the first class your teacher will encourage you to speak about yourself, your family, your hobbies and your job, among other topics, in different verb tenses. That way your tutor will be able to determine your level of Spanish and give you a free skills level assessment.
We guarantee that you will leave the class having already improved and learned something new. If you are a beginner, instead of focusing the class on your ability to speak, you will receive a full hour of Spanish immersion for only $40.
What happens after the first class?
After the first class, our team will get in touch with you to see what you thought about the lesson. If you decide that you want to keep studying with us, just let us know how many classes you’d like to purchase and we’ll send an online invoice. The more classes you buy, the more benefits you get. Here’s a list of our perks.
Where are classes held?
All of our classes are held in Dupont Circle and Columbia Heights. If you have a special request, let us know! We’ll try to accommodate your needs as much as we can.
How often do I have to take classes?
You can take classes as often as you wish. We understand that life can get busy at times and we don’t want you to stress about your Spanish lessons. Some students like booking their classes in advance, while others email their teacher week by week whenever they find a spare hour in their schedule.
PRICING AND PAYMENTS
How can I pay?
You can pay with cash, check or online. If you decide to pay online, we’ll send you an invoice and notify you when we get the payment. All payments must be done 48 hours before the scheduled class.
How many classes do I have to buy?
You can buy as many or as few as you want. You can pay classes on a one on one basis or packages. However, prices and benefits will vary depending on the amount of classes you buy. Take a look at our price chart here!
What does "Free Workshops" mean?
Speak Spanish in DC offers free workshops for those students who buy packages of 8 classes or more. Workshops are fun activities where we teach Spanish in a different way! Join us for cooking sessions, book club, photography classes, salsa and flamenco dance and much more!
CANCELLATIONS
What happens if I cancel my class?
If you need to cancel or reschedule your lesson you have up to 24 hours before your scheduled class to let us know, in the event of a last minute cancellation or no show the missed class will be charged. Here’s more info regarding our policies.
