You should pay your teachers more
You should pay your teachers more. Baselang is good for people like me who already know Spanish and have plenty of time during the day--I am retired.

Very patient and understanding.

Overall, I am confident BASELANG is one of the best language learning programs on line. Learning from native speakers makes it easy to acquire an authentic sound. Many teachers are dedicated, devoted to matching your learning style with prepared lessons and updated progress, and are upbeat and prepared. The only downside is finding the right fit for you and being able to book them quickly. As in life, there are some teachers who are not as equipped to teach and are less than professional in their approach so it's essential to find your favorites. I wish they offered weekly group classes as a supplement. I have stayed with the program for more than two years and diligently take lessons daily and not only have I but my native Spanish-speaking friends and colleagues have witnessed my progress.

Baselang is better than some other grammar based systems – but, grammar based systems only work for a small percentage of people. That is a fact. After over a year of study, 5-6 days a week, on detailed grammar lessons, I still have a VERY limited ability to speak. I would prefer speaking to learn rather than trying to learn to speak by reading textbook style lessons. Speaking with the teacher should be mandatory at the beginning of every lesson- perhaps a review of previous words learned, etc. My teachers were great, but not always available because they were so good at their jobs. There are other good options out there – not the usual Duo or Bab, but others. I am going to try something else that I feel will work better for me. Also, I do not like that Baselang pays their teachers so little. Just because most are based in Central or Latin America is no reason to become successful at their expense.

I have used Baselang on and off for a few years now. Even though I live much of the time in Mexico, my progress when I am using Baselang is incredible. I feel more confident and am able to go into the neighborhood knowing that I can have conversations, buy things in shops, place orders in restaurants and live a great life

This is the best language learning program in the world and I'd wager to say it's not even close. The curriculum, one on one teaching, flexibility of scheduling, and low cost are amazing.

I have account currently, and I had so much issues from the beginning! My time-zone was NOT automatically set so I missed classes with so many teachers, Many teachers also cancel last minute and the site give you a substitute teacher without asking which is so annoying because it counts as a lesson completed. The customer support KAI is so not helpful, if i don’t know something says It’s my fault for not reading the information beforehand.

It’s a great website, you can start learning how to speak and you can get your lessons any time you like
