Extended Learning Services is the
"Perfecto" Place for Spanish

We offer a comprehensive series of classes from our two Level 1 Beginning Spanish classes to our Level 4 Conversational Spanish classes. Our level 1 classes are "perfecto" if you have never taken Spanish or have taken it so long ago that you can’t remember all of your numbers, months, days of the week, etc. If you’re not sure which level is "perfecto" for you, just call Extended Learning Services and we will get you in touch with our award-winning instructor, Kim Karimi, who can help with placement.

"I’m a mortgage lender, and I wanted to arrange a "Spanish for Realtors" class for the Realtors I work with. I was worried that the effort involved would be immense. Working with the Extended Learning Services area at IUSB was a piece of cake, though. They helped me customize a class that taught just what I’d wanted. Senora Kim focused the teaching on words and phrases we use regularly in our field. Our class finished last week, and I’ve talked to several of the attendees since then. All agree that the class was extremely beneficial. IUSB combined great content with an interactive, low-pressure teaching style, making it was just what we needed. I couldn’t be happier with my experience. Thank you IUSB!!"
