The class has now started, but there are still a few places available.
WAITING LIST
Join the waiting list for our next class.
If this sounds like you, no te preocupes. Don't worry: you're not alone! Most learners go through this stage, but you can progress beyond the infamous Intermediate Plateau...
We're already half-way through 2022, but do you want to reach the end of the year and still feel stuck at this intermediate level?
The good news is you don't have to. Join the Coffee Break Spanish Masterclass and see your Spanish skills sky-rocket before New Year's Eve!
In the time it takes you to enjoy a daily cup of coffee (or tea, or any other beverage!) you can take your Spanish to the next level.
Each lesson is friendly and easy to understand. It's like sitting down with your friend who happens to be an expert Spanish teacher!
With professionally recorded audio and video resources and expertly designed lesson notes, you can enjoy a high quality experience throughout the course.
The Masterclass is part of the range of Coffee Break Spanish materials which have helped Spanish learners around the world since 2006.
Since 2016, we've helped thousands of Spanish learners, just like you, build their comprehension of Spanish, improve their understanding of grammar and move beyond the Intermediate Plateau with the Coffee Break Spanish Masterclass.
The Masterclass is organised in monthly modules, each one containing five audio lessons that are going to help you master grammar, learn idiomatic expressions and sound more authentic when you're speaking Spanish. All of this is based on our tried and tested Coffee Break Method which helps you turn your down time into "do time" and make progress like never before.
July 2022
Build your range of expression and make your Spanish more interesting by learning a range of frases hechas in our module on idiomatic expressions. You'll learn to use estar reventado, meter la pata, and much more.
August 2022
In this module we'll be looking at some very common verbs which can prove tricky to use. You'll learn to use ser, estar, hacer, tener and dar in many situations, including in figurative expressions which are difficult to translate. By the time you finish this module you'll be a master of Spanish tricky verbs.
September 2022
Sometimes words in Spanish look like words in English – and that’s when you need to be more careful! Words don’t always mean what they look like they mean. In this module on “false friends” you’ll encounter a series of words and expressions which often trick learners, and you’ll learn exactly what they mean, and how to say what you think they mean!
October 2022
Get on top of five of the most common tenses in Spanish, and know exactly when to use which one and how to conjugate regular and irregular verbs in each tense. If you struggle knowing whether to use preterite, perfect or imperfect in the past this module will solve all your tense tensions!
November 2022
In this module you'll be introduced to what learners often find to be one of the most tricky aspects of Spanish: the subjunctive. You'll learn to recognise triggers, to form the subjunctive and use it in your own speaking and writing.
December 2022
The final module of the Coffee Break Spanish Masterclass will help you to get to grips with some of the trickiest aspects of the language for learners at an intermediate stage including qué vs cuál, por vs para, how to use the personal a correctly, and lots more.
We've built the Coffee Break Spanish Masterclass to help you make the most effective progress possible in the time you have available.
Don't worry about what to learn next: we'll plan your learning for you and you can make progress with short, regular learning sessions.
All of the main learning in the course happens in just five audio lessons each month, and you can take these whenever it suits you best.
The lesson notes for each lesson build into a comprehensive course booklet which you can refer to as you move through the course.
Each month we provide bonus resources including checklists and video reviews to help you consolidate your learning.
Each lesson includes a homework task which you'll submit in our friendly Masterclass community.
Your homework will be corrected and your questions answered by our expert Masterclass tutors.
I really enjoy the timing of the modules being delivered. It makes it easy to choose when to complete them to fit in with everyone's busy lives. Not too much but just enough to have regular practice.
— Jackie M.
¿Tienes una pregunta?
When does the Masterclass start?
We're opening up the Masterclass for access in June 2022, and the course begins on 1st July, continuing until 31 December 2022. Of course, we understand that you may have commitments which mean that you may not be able to take each lesson on the day it's released. However, once they're released, the lessons will be available to you for as long as you need them. Please note that registration will close soon after 1 July 2022 and you will not be able to sign up again until the next time we open the course for registration.
How does the membership work?
There are two payment options for the Masterclass: either pay in six instalments over the six months of the course, or make a one-off payment at the start of the course. If you choose to go for the one-off payment we'll give you the equivalent of one month free. Regardless of how you pay, you'll be able to continue to access the audio files, text documents and video reviews in our Coffee Break Academy after your six months are ended. Please note that after December 2022 we will no longer be actively monitoring the comments and discussion areas in this course.
Who is the Masterclass for?
We’ve developed the Masterclass specifically for learners who are at an intermediate level. If you’ve already completed Seasons 1 and 2 of Coffee Break Spanish, then it will be the perfect way to develop your range of expression and build on what you’ve previously learned. The materials covered in each lesson will also be perfect if you’re currently working on Season 3. If you’ve already completed Season 4 it's possible that you will still find the Masterclass materials useful, but you should be aware that some students of Season 4 have found that the Masterclass materials may be a bit too easy.
What happens after I pay?
That depends a bit on when you pay! During the registration period your first payment will be taken, and if you've decided to go for the monthly payment option, subsequent payments will be taken on the same day of the month for a further 5 months. As soon as you sign up you'll receive a confirmation email and this will include some further information about the course and a link to the Coffee Break Academy login page. We'll also send some further emails to help you prepare for the course starting on 1st July. On 30th June we'll activate the Orientation Module for you in the Academy. The lessons will be made available on each publication day at the time you originally purchased the course. So, if you sign up at 2pm UK time, then the lessons will become available at 2pm on each publishing day.
How do I access the Masterclass?
The Masterclass is a bit different from our other courses because it is more like a 'coaching course', running for 6 months. You can access the audio lessons, the text documents and the video reviews for each module on the Coffee Break Academy. You can also download the materials to your own device or use a third party app such as Documents to organise and store the media files. Please note that there will not be a podcast feed for audio or video elements of the Masterclass.
Do I need to use Facebook for the Masterclass?
No. Previously we organised homework activities and discussions through a private Facebook group, but for the Class of July 2022 we are working entirely within the Coffee Break Academy. All homework activities and discussions will take place within the Coffee Break Academy, so you do not need to be a Facebook user. If you are a Facebook user, you're welcome to follow our main Coffee Break Spanish Facebook page where we post regular content for learners, but this is not linked in any way to our the Masterclass.
Do I get access to all the materials at once?
No. The materials are "dripped out" over the course of the 6-month course. Lessons are published every few days, with five main lessons and additional activities, reviews, checklists and module tests over each month. Our experience is that this gradual release of the materials will help you keep on top of the course and avoid being overwhelmed.
Are there live classes?
Live sessions are not a key part of the Masterclass: we've created the course to let you work through the pre-recorded lessons when it suits you. However, each month we'll run some kind of live session where the Masterclass tutors will provide some additional practice of what's included in the course, and give you the chance to ask questions. Times will vary each month to accommodate learners from around the world and any live sessions will be recorded and will be available after the event.

I've been teaching Spanish for over 25 years and I've taught learners from all over the world. I love to help learners unlock the secrets of a language as they move beyond an intermediate level. Why?

I’m finding the Masterclass extremely useful and convenient. The topics are nicely targeted to the needs of my level in Spanish, and the materials and activities are well designed. I like the way the learning and challenges are delivered in doable packages that fit with a busy life!
