What learners say about my classes

Here’s what some of my learners have said about their classes.

Tracey L

Sam has made Monday evenings fun and it’s great to learn with others in a small group, with lots of more natural words and phrases that you don’t get in traditional books.
Can’t wait until the next course starts.

Becky

I've absolutely loved every single minute of my Spanish learning journey with you Sam.

You are so fun and kind, you make learning a new language a joy and not as intimidating as it may sound.

I look forward to my class every week and I'm getting more and more confident each week that passes.

C, Spanish Beginner Course

Sam is a fantastic teacher. I've studied a couple of languages and attended a number of courses but I've never played games or had so much fun. Sam makes the lessons engaging and the games make the words stick and I feel much more confident
Thank you Sam

David

I’ve just completed Sam’s Spanish beginner course and found it very informative and relaxed. The course was well presented and easy to follow.

I'm feeling more confident and able to listen to someone speaking Spanish a bit better. Thank you for a very good intro to speaking Spanish.

Lucy - Private Classes

I wanted to learn some Spanish in preparation for travelling to Costa Rica. Sam’s teaching and follow up helped with greetings, directions, food allergies.
I enjoyed her teaching style and very practical prompts and reminders.
Although it was zoom it felt relaxed and designed for me.

Heather

I'm really enjoying Spanish lessons with Sam. The small group setting is perfect, and she makes the classes fun and friendly.

Learning a new language can be daunting but Sam makes sure everyone feels comfortable and not pressured or embarrassed if we make mistakes.

Louise

I have really enjoyed Sam’s Spanish classes. They are interactive and we speak Spanish every week.

The handouts are brilliant. We have learned how to use more local language and this is very helpful. It is a low stress and fun way to learn.

Gary

I have grown in confidence when speaking Spanish, and it seems to be becoming more natural without having to think about things too much.

Having Sam to support me along the way has been a great motivator, for me to keep on learning.

Georgina

I absolutely love this class, friendly calm atmosphere with friendly faces, broken down in easy fun ways, Sam is amazing!

Michelle

Each week I can feel my confidence grow and I definitely feel confident about attempting chatting to the locals when on holiday, even if it's ordering a glass of wine at the bar. 


Tracey L

Joined Sam’s beginners Spanish class in January and 12 weeks on I now know so much vocabulary that I would be confident to order food and drink, get an extra glass or replace a dirty fork after successfully navigating directions to a restaurant and stopping off at a cash point en route!

Rose S

Top notch teaching..
I think I'm going to 'get it '.
Sam is also very engaging. So glad I started this.

Louise

My confidence has improved and a more local way of saying things is really helpful to know.

Thank you so much, I’m so happy I found your Spanish class, Sam.

See you next term. ¡Hasta pronto!

Hola, I’m Sam

I’m a qualified Spanish teacher and the person behind SJ Languages.

I grew up in Tenerife and went to Spanish school there, then studied Spanish at university, graduating with a First and a distinction in spoken Spanish.

I can teach you the everyday language people actually use and explain how Spanish works in a way that makes sense to British learners.

I want you to enjoy coming to class, understand what you’re learning and feel more confident actually using your Spanish.

Questions about Norwich Spanish classes

Complete Beginners is for you if you’re new to Spanish, have only picked up a few words from holidays or apps, or want to start again with a complete refresher.

Next Steps follows on from my Beginners course. It’s also suitable if you already know some of the basics and want to build on them. We build on those foundations so you can handle a wider range of everyday situations, say more about yourself and start using Spanish more independently.

Spanish Club is for learners with more experience who want to keep learning and using their Spanish in an ongoing class.

If you’re not sure, send me a message and tell me what you’ve done before. I’ll help you work out where to start.

I know that holidays and other plans happen. If you miss a class, I’ll share the lesson resources with you, along with audio or voice notes where helpful, so you can see what we covered and catch up.


Beginners and Next Steps are booked as a complete course block. You can pay the full course fee upfront or spread the total over monthly payments.

Spanish Club works differently, with a rolling monthly or quarterly subscription.

You’ll find the exact prices and payment options on each class page.

My Norwich classes have a maximum of 12 people.

You don’t need to bring anything. I’ll provide all the lesson resources and everything you need in class.

Some learners like to bring a folder to keep their resources together, but that’s completely up to you.

Yes. The George Hotel has free on-site parking. Its website currently lists 43 parking spaces, although spaces are naturally subject to availability. The George Hotel
