What past students have to say:
I have observed hundreds of Spanish language classes in the U.S. and abroad. I believe Elissa at Express Fluency to be among the best language instructors I’ve ever seen–she is able to teach high quality Spanish language in a way that is joyful and with immediate and powerful results. Her methods reflect the best language teaching practices and is a great investment for any serious Spanish language learner (beginner – intermediate) to make! Bravo–I have never seen students so engaged and making such speedy and expansive progress as the five day workshop I observed!

Elissa’s class was a wonderful experience. For someone like me who usually feels a need to take notes and read books, it was easy to participate in another way, and take in much more than I thought would have been possible, just by being present and listening. Elissa has great spirit and that’s part of what makes the experience an enthusiastic and positive one. — David L
I had a 500-day streak going on Duolingo, which was GREAT, but when it came time to open my mouth and actually SPEAK Spanish, my body would seize up and no words would come out. Enter Elissa, and her non-traditional way of teaching, and I had actual words coming out of my mouth after just two days of her class!! We’re not memorizing words and conjugating verbs on a white board. We’re learning HOW TO SPEAK through repetition, play, movement, and laughter. Like a bunch of courageous, happy toddlers, stringing words together for the first time. It’s thrilling!! —Stasia S.
I can’t believe how much fun I had during this class! Elissa is fantastic. She creates a very safe, supportive environment, and you’ll never feel pressured to participate beyond your comfort level. Plus she knows how to keep things interesting. There’s no sitting through boring verb conjugation drills. You’ll be up and moving, and before you know it, able to carry on a conversation. I highly recommend this program — whether you’re completely new to Spanish and want to become familiar with the basics, or you already have some experience and want to become more confident speaking the language. I learned lots, I laughed lots, and even made new friends. Gracias! —Alison W.
I can’t say enough about the quality of Elissa’s classes! I’ve been taking the intermediate classes for awhile- in preparation for a month long trip to Costa Rica. My experience there was enhanced by the increase in my comfort level when conversing in Spanish! ¡Las clases son muy divertidas y mágicas! I highly recommend Express Fluency if you want to take your Spanish to a whole new level! — D’Vorah K
