Student Story · Calgary, AB
★★★★★

Our energy firm was expanding operations into Mexico and I was leading the commercial negotiations. Zero Spanish going in. I used the +15 to get to Berlitz on my lunch break three times a week. Twelve weeks later I was running those negotiations in Spanish. The deal closed. Calgary to Mexico City — Berlitz made that possible.

FAQ

Spanish courses in Calgary — your questions answered

Everything you need to know before booking your free Spanish consultation at Berlitz Calgary.

Where is the Berlitz Calgary centre located?
+

Berlitz Calgary is at 407 2nd Street SW, Suite 300, in the heart of downtown Calgary — directly connected to the +15 Skywalk and steps from the CORE Shopping Centre and Stephen Avenue Walk. The C-Train (Red & Blue lines) at 3rd and 4th Street SW is a short walk away. The centre has 5 modern, temperature-controlled, fully wheelchair-accessible classrooms. Classes run from 7:00 am to 9:00 pm to fit any schedule. Paid street parking is available nearby.

Do I need prior Spanish to join a Berlitz class in Calgary?
+

Not at all. We welcome complete beginners (A1) through to advanced speakers (C1+). Your free placement test — done online in about 20 minutes — determines your exact starting level. Whether you've never studied Spanish or want to sharpen professional fluency for Latin American business, we place you in the right programme from day one.

Do you teach Latin American Spanish or Castilian Spanish?
+

Both. Our native-fluent instructors cover the full spectrum — from the Spanish of Mexico, Colombia, Chile, and Argentina to that of Spain. Given Calgary's strong trade ties with Latin American energy and resource markets, many of our business Spanish programmes focus on Mexican and South American Spanish. We tailor the instruction entirely to your target market and goals.

How long does it take to become conversational in Spanish?
+

With our intensive programme (30–45 hours per week), most students reach working A2 in 3–4 weeks and conversational B1 within 8–10 weeks. With regular sessions (approx. 4 h/week), A2 typically takes 10–12 weeks and B1 around 20–25 weeks. Private one-to-one sessions can cut these timelines significantly. Your advisor will give you a realistic timeline based on your starting level and goals.

Does Berlitz Calgary offer Business Spanish for the energy and trade sectors?
+

Yes — this is one of our most requested programmes in Calgary. We work with executives, engineers, and international sales teams who need Spanish for negotiations, presentations, and project work in Latin American energy, finance, and technology markets. Training is available in-person at our 2nd Street centre, live online, or delivered directly at your Calgary office.

Is the consultation really free? What does it involve?
+

100% free and with no commitment. A Berlitz advisor — a real person, not a chatbot — will contact you within 1 business day. In a 20-minute call, they'll discuss your Spanish goals, your current level, your schedule, and your timeline. They'll recommend the right format, pace, and programme. You only enrol if it feels right. No pressure, no upsell.

Can my employer fund my Spanish training in Calgary?
+

Possibly. Berlitz Calgary is a recognised training provider and many employers — particularly in the energy, finance, and engineering sectors with Latin American operations — include language training in their professional development budgets. Your advisor can help you understand which options apply to your situation and how to approach your employer about covering the cost.
