Testimonials

I have truly enjoyed my experience with BTG.

“Patient, considerate and very encouraging in every way! I have been able to achieve an understanding and comprehension of the Spanish language in ways I never have in my previous teachings. My instructors encourage me and find unique ways to immerse me in the language and culture. At BTG the focus is not on rushing you through classes to the next session. They take the time to set a plan that gets you to where you want to be. I am an active participant in where I want to be and I am grateful for the care they take with me. BTG is like family and they care about my success. Familia es todo, y BTG Es mi familia! Muchas Gracias a mis maestros!”

–Rick

This program works.

“Primarily because they are willing to tailor a learning plan to you to meet your needs. I had needs in the business space and to support my travels and overall comfort. For an affordable price they gave me all the live coaching and tutoring I needed for me to see significant improvements in just a matter of weeks. I was able to take my subsequent trips and have fluent conversations about business, AI (my field of specialty) and anything else that came up.  And the tutors are all fun and very personable!!!”

-Marcus

My experience with BTG has been awesome.

“I was a bit nervous about really challenging myself to begin to speak Spanish but this program has built my skills and confidence with speaking and using more Spanish. Highly recommend!”

–Makyba

I was fortunate enough to come across this company!

“Very happy I found Keisha and her team. I wanted to find Spanish classes that are adult and beginner friendly. Keisha starts with a test to see where you are and finds a tutor that is compatible with you. ‘Bridge The Gap’ can offer you three classes a week for a very great monthly price. If you are wanting to take the next step in learning Spanish I highly recommend Bridge The Gap! You are given homework, and have grammar sessions plus lessons with a native speaker weekly. It is everything I was looking for and now I get to learn Spanish custom to my learning pace and needs!”

–Makayla

I have been using BTG Spanish for about 2 months and in that time my Spanish skills and confidence have improved.

“I enjoy working with my coach, Ale. She is encouraging, patient, and it has been great getting to know her and have conversations with her in Spanish. Every month I also meet with Keshia, where we discuss any questions I have from the previous month and we do conjugation exercises. I have wanted to expand on the Spanish I learned in school and this program does a great job catering to your needs and schedule. I also appreciate that the classes are structured to what your needs and skill-set are.”

–Dominique

Bridge the Gap Spanish is a WONDERFUL resource that helps me connect with my Spanish-speaking students and their families.

“My instructors, Keshia and Laura are GREAT! They provide opportunities for me to grow in my Spanish learning while helping me to build confidence as I begin to speak more.”

–Sherry

I feel much more confident in speaking and understanding Spanish!

“I’ve learned far more than I could on my own. Keshia and Irma are fantastic! I’m able to ask questions and have extra review on more difficult pieces of the language. Would definitely recommend! Muchas Gracias!”

–Ashleigh

I am having so much fun learning Spanish with Keshia and Irma.

“They are always prepared and tailor the lessons for me.  They encourage me to ask lots of questions and are very positive about my small steps.  Learning a new language is not easy for me but with their instruction, I think I can do it!  It is a great program.”

–Wynne

Participating in Bridge the Gap was such a great experience for me!

“Over the years my interest in learning Spanish increased and at first it was hard to know where to start. When I learned that Bridge The Gap was a practical way for me to learn Spanish from my home with a native speaker I was sold. Keshia went above and beyond to match me up with a Cuban woman, knowing that I was Cuban myself. The experience was so personal and my teacher was friendly, very helpful, and professional. It has been a great step for me in my Spanish journey, and I would recommend this program to anyone who is ready to take their Spanish learning to the next level!”

–Ashley

If you're eager to immerse yourself in the depths of Spanish, THIS is the ultimate method!

“I’ve gained a wealth of knowledge in a surprisingly short period. The incorporation of native Spanish speakers as instructors is a revolutionary game-changer!”

–Candice

Keshia and Yosy have been so amazing!

“I’m finally feeling confident enough to just open my mouth and talk! I always in the past got nervous and shut myself down and they’re helping me get past that so quickly!”

Bridge the Gap Spanish Founder - Keshia Villas

About the Founder

Hey there! My name is Keshia, and I started Bridge the Gap Spanish, a program focused on helping adults learn to speak Spanish, through conversation classes with native speakers, grammar classes, and coaching sessions. My first exposure to teaching languages was while attending an immersive Spanish school in Oaxaca, Mexico, where I volunteered to teach English as a Second Language (ESL). After returning to the States, I helped a local non-profit start its ESL program. This experience inspired me to start BTG Spanish. As an adult myself, I realize the challenges of learning a new language. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege to help so many reach their Spanish goals. And, for that I am grateful!

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I have to schedule a discovery call first?

During this discovery call, we talk through whether our program is the right fit for you. These calls also help us get to know you more, so that we can match you with a native speaker that you’ll learn well with.

I’m busy and have limited time available to take classes. Can this program work for me?

Yes! The native speakers that we work with have a wide range of availability. When matching you, we will take your schedule into consideration to find the best teacher whose availability will work for you.

What if I need to cancel a class?

No problem at all. We ask learners to give us at least a 12 hour notice, so that we can find a time to reschedule if possible. Our teachers are very flexible and understand that things come up. In the case of multiple reschedules within a short period of time, we will reach out to see if there is a steady time that works better for your schedule. We strive to respect the time of our teachers as well.

How long does it take for a learner to see progress?

For most learners, it takes about 3 months to really feel like they are progressing. As teachers, we can see your progress well before you can. As a result, your coaching sessions are vital; these sessions push you through the ups and downs that come with learning Spanish.

Do you teach Spain or Latin American Spanish?

We just focus on Latin American Spanish.

Where are the native speakers that you work with from?

Right now, we work with native speakers from Colombia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Guatemala, and Mexico. We are always working to expand our reach to other Latin American countries.

What if I want to learn a certain dialect and/or be matched with a teacher from a certain country?

We will do our best based on availability and schedule to match you with a native speaker from your requested country or with your requested dialect.

Does the dialect of the native speaker that I’m matched with matter?

No matter the dialect of the native speaker you’re matched with, we will teach you to generally communicate in Spanish. Yes, there may be some words that differ from country to country, but those nuances can be learned quickly based on the situation. Our goal is to help you be able to communicate in Spanish broadly and effectively with any Spanish speaker no matter where they’re from.

I’m traveling to a Spanish-speaking country soon and would like to learn a few words and phrases to help before I go. Is this program right for me?

Yes! We will teach you some helpful phrases and MORE! We encourage you to begin taking classes at least 3 months before you go. But, if you don’t have 3 months, we can tailor the program to you to help you learn as much as possible that will be helpful before you go.

Do you teach kids?

No, we do not have a program for kids. We focus on the unique needs that come with learning Spanish as an adult.

What payment options do you have?

We take credit card, Venmo, CashApp, and check.
