Has anyone here done a course with Spark Languages?

    Hey guys,

    I don't post here very often, but I figured someone here might be able to help!

    I'm considering doing a Spanish course with work experience with Spark Languages this summer, and I've just realised it doesn't look very popular and I'm afraid I'll be the only one there :o

    Has anyone here done a course with them before? (They're in El Puerto de Santa María). I'm studying Spanish in university and I mainly want to improve my oral Spanish (did a French course last year and it really helped my oral French) - but I'm afraid that the numbers doing it will be really low and they'll have to amalgamate levels or whatever (or that I'd end up in a class on my own!). Their program looks really good but I'm just not sure!!

    Thanks for any info :D

    Can't help with Sparks, but surely the mere fact of living down there and having to interact on a daily basis with natives will improve your fluency. I'd also almost see being in a class by myself as an advantage - you're getting one on one tuition.

    The only drawback I can think of is that the Andaluz accent can be quite hard to understand at times due to the way they don't pronounce their 's' sounds properly.
