I had a truly rewarding experience at Verbum. The school has a friendly, family feel to it. The materials were excellent and comprehensive. My teacher (Natacha), having a degree in literature, has an amazing knowledge of Spanish grammar. The classes were enjoyable, interesting, and flexible. When my head was spinning from structured grammar, we would shift to [...]
