Conversation Classes

Can we Talk?  
​

Conversations Classes at Edúcate Ya are a unique way to learn Spanish in Portland. Learn Spanish while having real life conversations with instructors and students completely in Spanish for two hours a week. These classes help right before a trip to a Spanish speaking place, if you learn in a different way than just reading from a book, or if you pick up languages best by being immersed in them. Call us today to get started or email us at [email protected].

Some of our clients are:
​“I wanted to provide an opportunity to demonstrate that all of my employees had potential for upward mobility and to show that we valued them and would invest in their professional development. [As a result of Edúcate Ya’s classes, we have seen an increase in interactions between staff and between back of the house employees and hotel guests.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"EducateYa is a wonderful community place where I had the privilege to teach English to Spanish speakers in Portland. My students came from Hillsboro and drove all the way into town because the methods EducateYa used are so successful. The management at EducateYa, including Rafael Arellano-Barrera are encouraging to all teachers and students to learn, experiment and grow. I highly recommend EducateYa for its mission statement and principles to make everyone in the U.S. bilingual. Yes!" 
Nana Nash


​"Educate Ya, is an amazing place to learn and build community in the Portland area."
