    Classes are designed to feel conversational and flexible, not like a traditional classroom.


    In addition to weekly classes, we also have twice-monthly Friday group conversations. These are 1-hour sessions with a facilitator where you’ll be placed into breakout rooms to practice speaking. These sessions are meant to help you build fluency, confidence, and community.

    Friday sessions are optional but encouraged. They’re there to support your practice, not to add pressure. Join when you can.

  • All classes are 100% virtual on Google Meets, so you can join from anywhere.

    At this time, applications for community-supported spots are closed.

  • This program is for intermediate and advanced learners. Here’s how we define each level:

    Beginner

    • You know a few words or phrases

    • You don’t feel comfortable holding a conversation yet

    Intermediate

    • You can have casual conversations (with pauses, mistakes, or Spanglish)

    • You understand most everyday topics

    • You and the subjunctive are not friends…yet!

    Advanced

    • You can express yourself clearly and comfortably

    • You understand and discuss complex ideas
      You want to polish grammar, vocabulary, and flow

    • You may have grown up speaking Spanish but want more confidence and structure

  • This is a cohort-based program that runs from January 11 through May 31. Enrollment happens at the start of the cohort, and students commit month-to-month within that timeframe.

  • While you’re committing month-to-month within the cohort timeframe, if your circumstances change, you can manage your subscription on Memberful to cancel.

  • The cohort structure helps create:

    • Consistency

    • Accountability

    • Stronger relationships

    • A more supportive learning environment

    Rather than people coming and going at random, everyone moves through the experience together.

  • This program is designed with queer Latines and QTPOC at the center. Non-Latine participants are welcome as long as they enter the space with care, humility, and respect. This is not a neutral language classroom, but a community-centered space.

    We ask all participants to be mindful of how much space they take up and to engage in a way that supports, rather than recenters away from, the community this program was created for.
