Christina Ball, Ph.D.
Founder and Director 
“I created Speak! in 2004 because I believed in the power of language to break down barriers and bridge the gap between people and cultures. I'm thrilled to finally have a platform that allows us to reach more people, while staying true to our focus on human-centered learning with exceptional teachers.”

What our Students Say

David S.
University of Virginia Professor 
As academics we are lucky that we sometimes get to work for six or twelve months in other countries, and languages give us so many more options to look forward to. Looking ahead, I want to keep working on my Spanish, with Speak!, to go back and bolster my French, and then—what I would really like to do—add a language that’s entirely new to me. For UVA employees, the educational credit is an amazing renewable resource….It’d be easy to say “oh no, another lesson, an hour a week I can’t spare,” but that’s upside-down: it’s an hour spent taking care of yourself and you’ll feel refreshed and invigorated at the end of it. I found it such a joy to be immersed in another linguistic world, and my lessons with Paola were the hour I looked forward to most every week.”

OUR STUDENTS

Praise for Pasaporte Spanish
Jess Wenger
Environmental Projects Manager, University of Virginia
Speak! made learning Spanish easy and accessible. I’ve always wanted to learn, but worried it wouldn’t fit into my schedule or I wouldn’t be able to keep up.

I love this beginning Spanish program because it allowed me to learn in a small group and also provided time to practice one on one with other students in the class. The instructor was always incredibly positive and encouraging. I feel like the course helped me to start learning how to speak in Spanish instead of just trying to translate my English into Spanish.
James Frye
Owner, Frye Financial Group
I have tried numerous methods of trying to learn Spanish before... other Spanish classes offered through other organizations, used Rosetta Stone, practiced with Duo Lingo, purchased cd's and books before but nothing has ever helped me begin to really learn Spanish like these classes and the teacher, Franco. I learned more in the first week than I had ever learned from any of the other methods.
Yiorgos Allayannis
Darden School of Business
Muchas, muchas gracias por todos! I not only learned a lot, but I also really enjoyed the experience of Pasaporte Spanish. Excellent class! I will be back for Pasaporte 2!
