"She is a wonderful teacher and I am really enjoying learning Spanish!" Kimberly S. - Unknown

"I am a Spanish teacher in the U.S. but I was not able to practice my Spanish with a native speaker, Live Lingua was the answer to my prayers, and it is very affordable!" Janet R. - Teacher

"I have been with Live Lingua for the past 1 year, learning Spanish from an amazing teacher named Ivбn Sбnchez-Gil. The transaction with Live Lingua are all through a very interactive & user friendly website, and the experience so far has been very good & transparent. My teacher Ivan Sanchez is a very qualified teacher. Apart from his expertise on the language, fantastic way of teaching, he is also extremely patient with a novice like me." Santanu D. - Unknown

"I have been extremely impressed with Live Lingua the past month. I signed up for the unlimited classes for a year. Live Lingua's overall organization is great, and it is super easy to schedule classes. Live Lingua paired me up with Spanish teachers from the two countries in which I will be working, which has been awesome. The teachers are very professional, organized, motivated, but also down to earth and the type of people with whom I genuinely enjoy speaking. My Spanish has gone from "know a lot but can't really speak" to "speaking about most topics but lots of room for improvement." You can burn out or get frustrated learning a language, but Live Lingua and the great teachers have kept me very positive. The only experience I can imagine that is better than Live Lingua is full immersion. If you can't do that, choose Live Lingua. Highly recommended." Spencer C. - Unknown
