“ I have just completed my first
Access class online. Doing the class
online made so much sense for me.
I could do a little at a time as my
schedule permitted. As I learned
new things, I could then refer back
to what I’d learned earlier and see
how it all fit together. I feel that I
was able to thoroughly learn this
way by taking my time and going
back when needed.”

What
students have said about
our online courses...
“I have taken the elementary and intermediate Spanish courses and I am currently taking the advanced course. When you take a test, you can see the results immediately which will let you know your weak and strong points. Also you can retake the test. It’s a good practice before taking the final tests. Second, I like the exercises. You can check your answers. The conference calls are very helpful. It gives you the opportunity to speak Spanish with other students. These online courses are great when Spanish classes are not available near your area.”
