Online self-paced Beginning spanish class

For students who cannot get into a group conversation class at this time due to schedule conflicts or the class being full, we offer a self-paced online Beginning 1 Spanish course. We plan to offer more of these in the future, but at this time Beginning 1 is the only course we offer online. Please find more information and signup details here.

Here is what students have said about the self-paced course:

“Virginia and the Language House are AMAZING. I took the Beginner 1 Online course. I was worried, as it is a self-paced course, but Virginia made it super easy to follow along. It felt like most of the time she was literally sitting right across from me. She provided a ton of great resources of the course as well, so you get extra goodies. It's just a great course if you're looking for a refresher or just to dip your toes in to see how you'll like it.” -Abbey S., Austin, TX

“I am taking ONLINE BEGINNER 1 Spanish with Virginia from The Language House. I cannot say enough good things about this online course. The online class contains videos of Virginia actually teaching you with visual prompting, questions to respond to and multiple links that correspond to the lesson to use for extra quizzing and practice. Virginia has a major passion for teaching Spanish and that passion makes this online class fun, "not boring", and clear to understand. I wish I had a teacher like her in high school!” -Jennifer F., Austin, TX

Private & Semi-Private spanish classes

Private (1-on-1) and semi-private (2 or 3 students) are a great option for those who prefer more individualized attention, want to move at their own pace, or have specific goals in mind. Many students take private classes in addition to group classes. Private tutoring is available for college students and adults. These 1-on-1 tutoring sessions are designed to provide further explanation and clarification and practice on the topics you are working on in your current class. Due to the high demand for adult instruction, we no longer offer classes for students younger than 21 years old.
