I wasn't happy with my class and they call me to figure out and we did. They are honest and offer more options for me....

I am going into my final year of law school and will be a student attorney in the immigration clinic. The professors I had last semester were unequivocal about the imporatnce of speaking Spanish in the practice of immigration and asylum law in Colorado.
Someone on the Aurora subreddit suggested Colorado Free University after I asked about Spanish classes for adults. I checked with local community colleges but the only language classes they offered were online, and it was important to me to find something in-person. I had a couple of "false starts" boning up on my French during the pandemic, and learning language is by its very nature a communal experience.
Today was my last day of the Spanish Intensive 1&2 course with Professor Diego Ceron, and it was some of the best time and money I have spent on education in general - including law school. If you can swing the intensive, I definitely recommend it - I learned more in two weeks of daily classes for a few hours than I did in five years of college French. Professor Ceron is patient, flexible, knowledgable and funny. The course provides two text booklets which the instructor supplemented with fun additions like songs, children's books, television show clips. I did not even know there was a clock in the room because I never looked at it.
Can't wait for future classes!

They should change the name.  It is not a free university in any shape or form.  I'm not willing to overlook that falsity.  The name should be what it is.  In these times, I will not support money over the many.  What was the concept of putting free into the name?  Some marketing gimmick?  It's free if you do this that and the other.  All marketing will be going away if it has a false claim in it.  5D will not support it. Come check out wonderful courses if you have money.  Or maybe free doesn't mean what I thought it meant. We can create a space for community, learning , sharing together without money.

I've just finished my third Spanish class with Colorado Free University and it's been great. I've signed up for my fourth already. The two teachers I've had are both amazing, Cecilia Goins and Bill Weller. The prices are much lower than other options for the amount of class time you receive. The classes are very fun and I've learned a lot. I highly recommend.
