As a second language learner myself (English and Japanese), I truly understand the difficulties, frustrations, and effective strategies involved in learning a new language, which is reflected in my teaching style. During my classes, I focus on creating a relaxed, positive atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable thinking creatively to express ourselves and learn from making mistakes. I believe that I'm a cheerful and encouraging teacher, so my classes tend to be fun and dynamic.

Abel is an excellent teacher. You can both learn to speak Spanish, use more vocab etc. or just practice the language with him if you already have a conversation level. Great conversations and great teaching skills!TD, Montreal

Denis est un très bon professeur. Il est dynamique, passioné, sympathique. Il s'est bien adapté à mon niveau et ma capacité d'apprendre, et surtout à mes impératifs de voyages en Espagne, de sorte que je puisse me débrouiller là bas. Ca été une expérience très agréable ces cours avec Denis dans des cafés. J'espère continuer avec lui à mon retour. CL, Montreal

Carolina is an excellent teacher. She is always on time for lessons and responds fast to queries. If you have difficulty speaking she will adapt to your level and always make the conversation smooth. I was pleased that she chose lesson materials that corresponded to my interests and pointed out the areas I needed to work on in a kind but firm manner. I definitely recommend.KR, Berlin
Why learn Spanish? Spanish is the 4th most commonly spoken language in the world and is the dominant language in more than 20 countries, in addition to being the most present second language in the United States. Knowing Spanish will make your travels to Europe and South-America more authentic and enjoyable, and will open for you the doors of many career opportunities at the international level.
Spanish is easy to learn. Although grammar can be challenging, Spanish is almost completely phonetic, meaning that you know the pronunciation of a word simply by looking at its spelling. Spanish will help you enter the worlds of Cervantes, García Márquez, Neruda, Borges, Almodovar and many other great writers and filmmakers!
Spanish courses at Multi-Language Cafe
If you are interested in learning Spanish but dislike the idea of attending a regular language school, consider taking private lessons with one of our Spanish teachers. Interaction with the teacher in a private class is more dynamic than in group classes, this will help you master the language faster. You can follow your Spanish classes online, using a service like Zoom or Skype, or in person, in public places like a library or a coffee shop. You decide your own schedule and you book your own classes in our online calendar according to your own availabilities. If you want to take private Spanish classes but still like the idea of studying as a group, you can form a small group with your friends and register for semi-private lessons.
