What role has Pura Buena Onda played in helping you improve your Spanish & advance to the next level?
It has helped me tremendously in not only building my vocabulary, but also my confidence in my ability to speak Spanish. The constancy of classes forces me to remain consistent in my practice, even when I’m very busy. And the different types of exercises and supplementary activities helps me to practice different even more. I still have a long way to go, but I have improved a great amount since beginning classes 9 months ago.

What are some of your favorite resources?
I use Duolingo to help with grammar. I use Reverso to help with translation and looking up new vocabulary words, though I do see some limitations in it. I also enjoy reading articles or comic books in Spanish to help me practice.
