RONALD WEBER
I have been taking lessons from Javier for about about a year and a half. It is one of the most enjoyable hours of my week. I look forward to the challenges presented every week in his lessons, the thoroughness of his preparation, and his teaching techniques. Each lesson builds on the previous week's lesson. This, along with a homework assignment if completed, will aid in your comprehension of the Spanish language. I started to learn Spanish for my career as a firefighter, but after taking lessons with Javier I have developed an appreciation of the language and want to become fluent at some point in my life. Javier has a realistic view of the time it takes to learn a language and has a smile and a positive attitude every week.

Javier is a wonderful teacher. He blends the perfect mix of fun, enthusiasm, encouragement and accountability. The teaching approach of reinforcing learned skills, introducing new skills, practicing in class, quizzes and homework (both writing and listening) are helping me to make progress faster than I thought I would. The class time seems to fly by and is always engaging and fun. I can’t think of a thing about Javier’s approach that I would change.

RONALD COOPER
"My private lessons with Javier have enabled me to quickly improve my Spanish language skills. We meet for two hours each week, and over the past six months I've seen major improvements in speaking ability, comprehension, the use of proper grammar and expanded vocabulary. The private lessons allow me to focus on my specific needs and are an efficient and effective approach to improving my Spanish. Javier is an energetic, enthusiastic, experienced and skilled instructor. The classes are fun and productive."

JOE THURGOOD
"I wanted some lessons to force me to learn enough to talk easily. Javier worked with me and in just a few lessons pushed me to the next level of comfort with speaking Spanish. He adapted to my needs, was patient but firm and really helped me move forward quickly. I would recommend him to anyone."

CHRISTINE CASEY PERRY

I have had over five years of Spanish and didn't learn nearly as quickly or as much as I have over the six months that Javier has been teaching me Spanish in weekly group lessons. He teaches Spanish in a way that is useful so you can actually converse, instead of just writing down sentences over and over. There are not boring lists of rules to memorize -- Javier just helps "tune your ear" so you instinctively begin to know the correct grammar. Javier is fun and mixes up his teaching approach to always keep you challenged and engaged. I look forward to Spanish class and can walk away from each class feeling more equipped to talk to people in Spanish

Where to start ...Learning with Javier has been such a joy for my husband and I. We've been students of Javier's for about 8 months and have enjoyed every minute. He is so accommodating: he comes to our house on a schedule that works for our busy life. We learn at a different pace and Javier is able to teach both of us at the same time without rushing one or slowing the other. His brilliance for teaching is only surpassed by his enthusiasm and love of his language.

THEOBALD JAYDE
I signed up with The Art of Spanish primarily to learn some Spanish for work and to prepare for a two-week immersion trip. When I got to Guatemala, I found that I had a great foundation to build on and that I was equipped with the tools I needed to make the most of my short trip.

TERRY WILLIAMS
I have studied Spanish for a number of years in classroom settings as well as with tutors. As I have discovered, Spanish can be slow and tedious to learn or exciting and engaging. It all depends on the teacher. Javier Morganti does a superior job of keeping the content interesting and the pace fast and lively. His knowledge of the language combined with his easy affability makes him a pleasure to work with. Whether we are working on new vocabulary or attacking the subjunctive, I always look forward to my sessions with Javier and am supervised by how much I learn.

JANE & CHRISTOPHER COLWELL
My 6 year old and I have been taking Spanish classes with Javier since May '06. It is amazing how much we have learned already. He has class with 3 neighbors then I have class with 3 neighbors. It is so convenient and fun. We find ourselves using our new skills all the time! Javier is an amazing teacher with a curriculum that is fun, fast and makes learning easy!

MARIA COLLISON
I have been studying with Javier Morganti for almost two years now. I was almost a beginner and I have learned enough Spanish where this fall I felt confident enough to go to Argentina to study Spanish for 5 weeks. Javier creates a comfortable atmosphere in which to learn and study and has worked with my schedule throughout. If I have time to study, then I am given homework. If my schedule is too busy at the time, then we just continue to work during classes. I appreciate his teaching style very much and look forward to my Spanish lessons!.

KATHY SULLIVAN
Javier Morganti's teaching style makes learning Spanish fun and interesting. Unlike traditional grammar book-focused class rooms, our assignments are varied to include other modern teaching methods like CDs, movies and conversational banter to reinforce the topics we happen to be studying.

BARRY BORTNICK
I can't say enough about Javier Morganti's teaching style. I have taken group and private classes with Javier for a number of years. I have learned a great deal from Javier and have recommended him to many others. I have found him to be a highly effective teacher. He works well with individuals and groups. He works hard to keep the lessons informative and fun. His teaching style is light and happy. Those qualities mirror his personality. Anyone interested in learning to speak Spanish should spend time with Javier and enroll with The Art of Spanish.

STACY COOK
Audio CDs, workbooks, computer software after computer software all replaced with lessons from Javier. Taking group classes along private lessons had me speaking Spanish quickly and correctly. Javier’s sense of humor makes learning Spanish fun. He always organizes events for beginners like me to practice without pressure. I would recommend Javier Morganti to anyone who would like to improve speaking Spanish and wants to have fun in doing so.

TYLER RAUENZAHN
Through The Art of Spanish, I am able to not only increase my comprehension of the language, but I have fun while doing it! The traditional classroom setting presented me limitations to my learning potential. By enrolling in The Art of Spanish I was finally able to obtain the one-on-one help I needed to overcome personal barriers. I highly recommend this program to anyone looking to learn the language and promise you will not be disappointed!

BRENT MATHER
"I have been a student of Javier's for two years now and consider him one of the finest teachers I have ever had. The learning process is diverse and challenging but most importantly fun. The structure also allows me to fit learning spanish into my busy schedule and lifestyle."

DIANA MCGUIRK
After many years of saying, "I want to learn Spanish" I finally took action and began. One should not wait until almost 60 years old to begin this quest but one must begin! I tried a group class without much success. I knew a one on one class would be most helpful to me. I feel so lucky to have found a teacher with the philosophy of Javier. He combines listening, reading, speaking, writing and laughing. These components are mixed in a lovely hour filled with learning the beautiful Spanish language. He evaluates students individually, offers support and motivates. I heartily recommend Javier Morganti to anyone interested in exploring or improving a new language.

CHET PETROW
I've been taking classes from Javier for approximately one year. Though I was only interested in learning to speak Spanish, Javier's methodology of ensuring that you have the ability to read and write in Spanish has enhanced the learning experience, and made the learning and utilization of new words a much more efficient process. Am I pleased with where I am at after one year - absolutely.

ROBERT WALTON
Prior to studying with you I had done a considerable amount of self-teaching. Working with you has helped me greatly in clarifying and reinforcing much of my prior learning, especially as to those especially pesky aspects like: por vs. para, ser vs estar, preterit vs. imperfect tense usage, and the use of subjunctive. Conducting our sessions totally in Spanish has been a challenge, but has helped build my confidence in communication. I am gratefully for your patience and encouragement.
Tu estudiante y amigo,
Bob

JOSEPH DOYLE
I have taken spanish classes at the university level and at other well known language centers in Denver. I found them expensive, rigid in their methods and unable to adapt to the specific needs of the individual students. These problems are compounded for a working professional who has to deal with an ever changing and demanding work schedule. The Art of Spanish offered me a more flexible and adaptable program that could be taylored to my needs, expectations and schedule. The past few months have given me the satisfaction of knowing that I am receiving the most value for my time and investment. I would recommend The Art of Spanish to any person who wants to learn spanish in a fun and enjoyable atmosphere.

NICHOLAS SHELTON
"Javier is the most fun and awesome Spanish teacher I have ever had. His methods make learning so much easier than the traditional methods so you learn Spanish quickly and confidently without stress and strain. I highly recommend him."

TERI O'SULLIVAN
I cannot begin to tell you how much I enjoyed spending the better part of Spring/Summer studying with you.
