"I am happy to recommend Lingua Professional Services and her Experienced Business Language & Spanish for a Specific Purpose Coaches. I had the opportunity to live in Guadalajara, Jalisco México for a year as a missionary for the FSSP (Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter), and during that time, I used Gina and her team to help me learn Spanish. It wasn’t until the summer of 2016, that I became fluent in Spanish, thanks to her intensive Spanish course they taught throughout the summer. While the program was geared toward seminarians from the United States, I had the opportunity to take part in this program for 2 months. The course was a rigorous process of 8 hours of Spanish for 6 days a week. What was even more incredible was that the course was taught all in Spanish. By the end of the 2 months the seminarians and myself, were fluent in Spanish and could communicate on almost any topic. Thanks to Lingua Professional Services, through the San Junípero Serra Spanish Institute, the seminarians were able to evangelize on the streets and communicate with anyone by the end of their two-month excursion in México. The course was taught using Habla Cristiano, a book implemented by Gina Yoryet and the Lingua Professional Services team, which is geared towards Spanish for the clergy to instruct students in Spanish. The book was very comprehensive and covered every important element that is necessary in learning a language. Her language services have helped me tremendously, and it gave me the opportunity to a better understanding of the Spanish language. The Experienced Language Coaches at Lingua Professional Services is extremely thorough. They go out of their way and make sure you understand everything and address any concerns or areas of struggle that you may have. If you want to learn a language for fun, business, government, school, or for any reason I recommend going through Lingua Professional Services."

The instructors were not only highly knowledgeable but also incredibly supportive. They took the time to break down each section of the test, offering invaluable tips and practice materials that made a real difference. Their feedback was precise and constructive, allowing me to identify and address my weaknesses effectively. Thanks to their expert guidance and encouragement, I saw significant improvement in my scores across all sections. The skills and confidence I gained through their program were crucial in achieving the band score I needed for my academic and professional goals. I wholeheartedly recommend their IELTS Teaching services to anyone serious about achieving their best possible score.
