Before you apply
A few practical questions.
Why not just hire a tutor online?
You can, and for some people that’s enough. A tutor gives you an hour of conversation. The Accelerator gives you more. Your coach finds what blocks you. You get a plan for the week and a corrected essay. You can ask your coach questions between sessions. And every six weeks, we check your progress. The hour with your coach is the center of the program, not the whole thing.
How much time does it take each week?
At least two hours a week for Core Confidence: your 60-minute session plus three 20-minute practice blocks on our platform. Accelerated Fluency takes at least three hours, because you get two sessions. That includes your weekly essay. That’s the minimum. If you can study more on your own, even better: your coach will give you extra practice to go further.
What level do I need?
Ideally, somewhere between A1 and C1. Not sure where you are? Tell us in your application, and we’ll confirm by email whether it’s a fit.
Will this make me fluent by my next trip?
Fluency depends on where you start, so we can’t promise it before we know your level. What we do guarantee: if you do the work, clear, measurable improvement in 12 weeks, or we refund you in full. Tell us when you travel, and your coach starts with what you’ll need first.
How does scheduling work across time zones?
We match you with a coach who is available when you are, based on your schedule, not ours. Tell us your usual availability during onboarding, then you book your sessions with your coach directly.
How is my coach chosen? Can I change?
We match you based on your goals and your schedule. Want Spanish from Spain, Mexico or somewhere else in Latin America? Tell us during onboarding, and we’ll match you with a coach from there. We suggest keeping the same coach for all 12 weeks. If it isn’t working, tell us and we’ll change.
What happens after I apply?
We review your answers and reply by email within 24 hours, Monday to Saturday. If it’s a fit, we recommend a plan and send you the next steps. You choose and pay only after that. Then you do your level assessment, and your plan is ready before your first session.
Can I pause the program?
Yes, for travel, illness or work. Tell us in advance and we’ll pause your sessions. Still, we suggest a steady weekly rhythm: showing up every week is what makes coaching work.
What if it’s not working for me?
If the Accelerator isn’t the right fit, cancel before your first session or within 7 days after it, and we refund your payment. If we haven’t done your level assessment yet, that’s a full refund. If we have, we deduct an assessment fee, and you keep your full level assessment, where a coach reviews your speaking and pronunciation, your personal study plan, and detailed feedback on your Spanish. And if you complete the 12 weeks and your final review shows no measurable progress, we refund 100%. See the guarantee.
