Fantastic experience: KS languages has a balance of conversation and grammar instruction. I really enjoy the opportunity to listen to other students and I feel very comfortable speaking to improve my Spanish. I recommend KS learning for anyone who wants to practice speaking as well as having a structured approach to learning a new language.

Thais Chiara Published on Google 3 weeks ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve had a great experience in this Spanish class. The teacher is incredibly kind, supportive, and creates a comfortable environment to learn. One thing I really appreciate is that we are encouraged to speak in Spanish the entire time, which has helped me become much more confident and comfortable communicating. I’ve noticed real progress in my speaking ability, and I feel more at ease having conversations. Highly recommend this class to anyone looking to improve their Spanish in a supportive and engaging setting.

Eric Smith Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: I've had a great experience with KS Language Academy's Spanish classes. The classes are fairly priced and offer an excellent value for the quality of instruction you receive. Karen B is who I have been taking classes with and she is patient and genuinely invested in helping her students succeed. Mariana is fantastic and always available to answer any questions. The program is very flexible and offers an excellent way for adult students to learn a new language. I cannot say enough good things about KS Language Academy and I highly recommend signing up and start learning!

Kendra Page Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: My husband and I have enjoyed three eight-week sessions of Spanish lessons with our instructor Olga. We came to KS Academy as almost-beginners... We are in our late 70s and look toward learning a new language as a great way to keep our brains working. I had my first brief introduction to Spanish through a community class a few years ago, and my husband had Spanish in high school, over 60 years ago. Our progress has been slow-but-steady and we now have the confidence to speak with native Spanish speakers. I think the structure of the curriculum works very well, and we appreciate Olga's patience and feel that she adjusts sessions according to our needs.

Jannie Scott Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: KSLA provides an outstanding learning experience. The teachers are knowledgable and expert, class size is small allowing for practice and real-time learning with other students, the weekly class is beneficial and the cost provides the value back to the students. The owner is customer service oriented with open and timely communication exchanged. I researched classes and KSLA provides the best environment for learning.

Marissa Hyman Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been taking weekly group lessons for about six months now and couldn’t be happier. Miguel is a fantastic instructor, and the women in my class make it such a fun, welcoming environment. The two-hour lessons truly fly by. I’ve seen real improvement in my Spanish over these past six months and am excited to see how much more I’ll grow in the months to come. The location easy to get to with plenty of parking, and there’s even a great coffee shop downstairs — perfect for a little treat before class.

OrdinaryBob Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: After 4 years of learning Spanish on Duolingo, I was stuck. I signed up for classes here over a year ago. I look forward to my weekly class, since the instructor is lots of fun, and my classmates have become my friends. When I practice with my colleagues and random strangers, they always tell me I am doing great. This school knows how to teach.

Clayton Wilson Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: I have been taking a Spanish class through KSlanguage academy for about 5 months. My Spanish teach is Luisa she is the best, highly recommend learning from her. This company and my Spanish teacher are super understanding and kind. Couldn’t think of a better place for intellectual struggle and learning a new language!!

Clark Lunt Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Me encanta mi clase grupo! Mariana is a true professional, and she helps us work our way through our struggles trying to learn a different language. The other members of the group help to create an safe atmosphere where you don't have to be embarrassed when you don't know something. I highly recommend to anybody that is looking to improve their espanol and want a more "in person" experience.

Maria Westerhaus Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Mariana is an excellent teacher! I felt challenged but also supported throughout my time taking classes. We practice using real world examples and I feel safe and not judged which is conducive to my learning.

Lynle Ellis Hawkins-Struble Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: I found KS Language Academy through Google. I had just come back from my 1st visit to Spain and fell in love with the country. I immediately wanted to learn Spanish. I found Mariana and the KS Language Academy. Luisa, my instructor, has been amazing. The books and process the KS uses truly set you up to learn. My lessons are informative, helpful, supportive and diverse. If you put the time and energy into practicing and doing your homework, you will speak, write, read and communicate in Spanish. Now when I travel to Spain, the culture and experience is richer because I understand so much more of the language. Luisa has encouraged and supported me through my Spanish language journey.

Leanne Fowler Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Mariana’s classes are the best investment I’ve made in myself in a long time. She is a great teacher and very professional. Highly recommend to all levels.

Roxanne Felig Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: I studied Spanish for several years and wanted to get back in to taking classes. Mariana was so great at facilitating my placement test and getting me immediately enrolled. The group was very welcoming, which was great as I was feeling nervous after not practicing for many years. The class structure is very conducive to deep and immersive learning, and Mariana is a fantastic educator.

F. Shawn Pawlak Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: My experience with KS Language Academy has been great to date. Mariana was very responsive to my original emails and helped me organize private lessons that fit my schedule. Olga, my instructor, has been wonderful and is a natural teacher. She pushes me to learn, but also recognizes when I need a little more support and help. It's a great group of people overall!

Benjamin Bowman Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: This school is amazing! I took Spanish classes here for 5 months and learned more than I thought I ever could in that time. Had a huge impact on my job at the time. I hope to be back soon! Miguel is a fantastic teacher. His class is super fun. I looked forward to it every week!

Dmitry Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: I studied at KS Language Academy for about 3 years, and it has been an excellent experience from start to finish. Mariana runs a very professional and well-organized school where everything is handled with care and attention. Communication was always clear, scheduling was flexible, and I always felt supported throughout my learning journey. My teacher was Taylor, who is an outstanding teacher. His classes were structured, practical, and tailored to my specific needs. He helped me improve my grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and confidence in real-life speaking. I truly appreciated his patience, consistency, and detailed feedback — all of which made a big difference in my progress. When I started, I could barely formulate sentences, now I can confidently participate in discussions on a wide variety of topics at an excellent conversational level. Thanks to Taylor’s teaching and the school’s overall approach, I’ve made real, measurable progress! I highly recommend KS English School to anyone who wants serious results in a supportive and professional environment. Thank you, Mariana and Taylor, for everything!

Michael Hogan (ChrolloDK) Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: I have tried several different spanish classes and honestly this is the only one that makes me feel like I'm actually better having learned from here. I would highly recommend.

Kayleigh Rodriguez Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: I absolutely adore Mariana and her Spanish classes. As someone who bought all the Spanish made easy books and downloaded all the apps, nothing helped me make progress in learning the language other than her lessons! I have met someone wonderful like-minded people as well in her group sessions. Would highly recommend over and over again!

Julia B Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: Mariana is great! I’ve been trying to learn Spanish for years. I had taken Spanish classes back when I was in school so I can read and write it a little, but have always had the most difficulty when trying to speak it. After only a few classes with Mariana, I already notice a difference in my speaking ability and comprehension. Highly recommend!

Shelby Walters Published on Google 6 months ago

Kevin Woods Published on Google 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: Yo empecé a tomar clases con Mariana en mayo de 2024 y aprobé mi examen DELE B2 en mayo de 2025. Las clases con Mariana fueron esenciales en mi aprendizaje; sin ella, no habría logrado tanto en tan poco tiempo. Lo que ofrece es un tipo de enseñanza completamente personalizada, capaz de inculcar desde los conceptos básicos hasta los niveles más avanzados. Antes de tomar clases con Mariana, no hablaba nada de español; después de un mes ya podía expresarme con frases y oraciones básicas, y tras tres meses, mantenía conversaciones a nivel conversacional. Si quieres llevar tu español a un nivel más alto, te recomiendo muchísimo tomar clases en esta empresa.

Irene Quisenberry Published on Google 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: KS Language Academy is truly dedicated to helping students reach their foreign language goals. Mariana is enormously patient and perfectly customizes my instruction so it is well-paced for my learning style. I attend both small group and private classes which have made this a really joyful, meaningful journey in speaking better Spanish!

Aileen Kangavary Published on Google 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: I have been taking Spanish classes with Mariana at KS Language Academy and I couldn’t recommend it more. I do the group classes and they are 2 hours — the 2 hours fly by! We do lots of conversations, textbook work, and she brings in some real world articles for us to read and discuss!!

Mette Østergaard Published on Google 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: If it was possible to rate KS Language Academy higher, I would! Everything about this place just works perfectly. I had the most fantastic and lovely teacher, who knows how to get the best out what you can, and really tries to help you further. If you need to skip your classes for a couple of times, KS Language Academy (Mariana) is very helpful, and record the classes, so you can follow up later. I’ll give KS Language Academy my biggest recommendations.

Nick Published on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: 10/10 experience with KS Language Academy thus far. I've been taking Spanish lessons since March of this year, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. I've had the pleasure of meeting with both Luisa and Mariana. Luisa is my primary instructor, and I meet with her on a weekly basis. I see progress and improvement in my Spanish skills, as Luisa is extremely patient but also a very knowledgeable and skilled teacher. I'm happy with this language journey.

Adam Greene Published on Google 9 months ago

Kyle K Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: KS Language Academy is a great solution for in person learning. The group setting helped with constant practice and the syllabus made for a smooth learning process. I recommend them for anyone looking to learn or hone Spanish speaking skills! I was in classes for about a year and have seen immense improvement in my own ability.

Rodolfo Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Learning with Ingrid was an incredible experience! The classes put me in a comfortable environment to practice Spanish and make mistakes, with the framework to teach me grammatical rules and new vocabulary. They were also very flexible with in-person and remote classes. I'm able to hold conversations in Spanish now! Looking to get certified soon.

Eileen C. Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I spent seven months learning Spanish at KS Language Academy with Ingrid. She is a great teacher who is friendly and patient. Taking classes with her for two hours once a week built up my confidence in speaking Spanish and made me more comfortable with difficult grammatical concepts. I appreciated that the classes were both fun and flexible, allowing me to learn on-site in Tampa when I could or join online via Zoom. Mariana was also a great teacher whenever she filled in for Ingrid and all my interactions with her on the business end were courteous. Highly recommend KS Language Academy for learning Spanish in Tampa!

Nicolas Torres Published on Google 1 year ago

Kaylee Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have studied at KS Language Academy for the past year and I can honestly say that my Spanish language skills have improved from when I first started. I took the group class. The classes are a combination of speaking, grammar, vocabulary, and reading comprehension. The teachers and staff are wonderful, accommodating, and always seek to help you develop your language skills. I am more confident corresponding with Spanish-speakers than I was before and I look forward to continuing to develop my Spanish language skills.

Fidan Huseynova Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I went to this course for English course, it was the best course I liked in Tampa, the lady was very good person. Taylor is the best English teacher. I don't take that course anymore because we moved from Tampa, but it's the best course I've ever taken, Taylor is a super teacher.

Christian Celaya Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: As someone who’s half-Mexican, I have long wanted to improve my Spanish proficiency as te La gauge was unfortunately not spoken much in my household. Seeing the overwhelming positive reviews for KS Language Academy lead me to reaching out to them, taking an assessment exam and proceeding to get set up with a Spanish tutor. The entire process was extremely convenient and comfortable thanks to Mariana Kappler, and I was lucky to be assigned to an amazing teacher, Luisa. I’ve been working with her for the past two months and my confidence in speaking, as well as my vocabulary and comp, has grown by leaps and bounds already. I highly recommend KS Language Academy and Luisa to anyone who’s interested in learning or improving their Spanish-speaking abilities.

Rebecca Nunez Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Mariana and the instructors at KS Language Academy. There are many different options for class types (private, semi-private, small group) and levels of proficiency. Each student meets with Mariana to establish which class best suits their level of understanding and schedule. Consistent class attendance is an excellent way to continue progressing and each session includes grammar, vocab and conversation. I highly recommend Reina as a teacher. She is very knowledgeable and creates a comfortable and engaging environment to work on improving Spanish language skills.

Phil Estes Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Mariana and her team customized my course at my own pace. Never did I feel nervous or embarrassed that I had 0 language experience. Mariana gave me the best lessons to set my goal and that was to be able to understand, write and speak at an intermediate level ! With her training and expertise I was able to achieve my goal and now I can use my new language to understand and and speak español when I travel and in my daily life. Thank you again for giving me the confidence needed! Sincerly, Alan

Fantastic experience: Marianna is an excellent teacher! She is professional, patient and has all the necessary resources for you to be bilingual in spanish. Gracias Marianna por todo tu gran trabajo! I would highly recommend her and her company to give you the opportunity to become a bilingual speaker.

Kevin Wolff Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: It is my pleasure to recommend KS Language Academy. I started as a true beginner in a small group setting, which I loved. For scheduling reasons, I later moved to private lessons. Through many years together, I progressed from knowing nothing to being comfortable in conversation with native speakers and able to read news and other items in Spanish. By my count, I learned from 6 different instructors over as many years there, and all were excellent. Of course the heartbeat of the entire operation is Mariana, who runs her business with care and attention to each individual learner and their situation. You will not regret your decision to choose KS Language Academy for your learning.

Elliot King Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This Learning Center is Great for all levels of people wanting to improve their Spanish Skills. Like most people I took 2 years in HS. When I came here I couldn't speak much Spanish at all .It has been 16 Months and I have been to 3 Spanish Speaking countries and am able to hold conversations and get around with no issue. Small class sizes, and everyone is friendly and eager because we are all in the same level. This class helped me not be afraid to speak Spanish for fear of a bad accent or saying the right words, gave me a community, and allowed me to be more expressive to others. Its not a huge time commitment and not strict on attendance so its great for someone with a lot going on in life. I Highly recommend.

Jim Cornwell Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I tried to learn Spanish online starting in 2020. Almost 2 years ago I started going to KS Language Acadmy what a difference. If you want to truly learn Spanish you need to invest the time to attend a class, in my opinion KS is the best. I would suggest calling Marianna Kappler for an an interview, I promise it will be well worth the phone call or appointment. Marianna has a very special talent teaching Spanish.

DeAnna Harmon Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: KS Language Academy is the place to go if you want to learn Spanish. Marianna has an amazing ability to explain the grammar rules so I've been able to learn pretty quickly. I've been studying less than a year with her and I can already have an hour long conversation with her in Spanish! I look forward to our classes every week. My goal is to become fluent in Spanish and I have no doubt that with Marianna this will be possible. Muchas gracias!

Scott Poole Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been trying for years to actually learn Spanish. From Rosetta Stone, to apps on my phone, to self study books. Honestly, I was wasting my time. I have learned more in 6 months with KS Academy than I have in the previous 5 years. This isn't some "learn the 5 phrases you'll need on your trip to Mexico" class. This is vocabulary, grammar, conjugation, conversation and REAL learning. When you are serious, they will be ready for you.

Tracy Dolsen Published on Google 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I VERY STRONGLY recommend KS Language Academy to anybody wants to learn Spanish easy way . All the teachers are marvelous, they make studying and relaxing, they gently guide you rather than apply harsh pressure. You learn anyway even if you are not language pro ( like me). Spanish language is beautiful and it"s knowledge opens up a whole new world for us students. COVID permitting we could travel to so many Spanish speaking countries confidently without getting lost. Muchas gracias, great job Academy!

Melissa Larsen Published on Google 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive learning environment & reasonable price . . . I highly recommend KS Language Academy! Since I began studying there one year ago, I've made vast improvement. When I arrived, I needed intensive classes, which they provided, to prepare for a business trip to Spain. Mariana diagnosed and systematically addressed some areas of difficulty (errors) in my grammar and speaking. As a result, I could communicate effectively abroad. But it didn't stop there! Since then, I've noticed improvement in my oral comprehension of even fast-talking Latinex native speakers. Mariliana has been very patient, adapted instruction to my interests, and motivated me to learn. In short, KS Language Academy provides an engaging and affordable language learning experience.

Fantastic experience: I want to thanks KS Language Academy for helping my dream of studying a professional career come true. My language skills improved notoriously, thanks to all of the teachers for giving me confidence in myself. Particularly, I would like to thank Taylor, who is an excellent teacher, he made me believe in myself. At the same time this academy has an incredible and friendly environment which creates a good motivation for their students. It's really funny when you discover that most of the students are beginners and are afraid to speak the new language. Definitely a really good option if you want to achieve your personal goals fast and improve your abilities, even if you are on a limited time schedule, they can work with your agenda to make the classes work for you.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend KS Language Academy. I had no prior knowledge of Spanish and I'm amazed how much I've learned in a few months. I just returned from a trip to Mexico and was able to understand a lot and carry on a basic conversation. The teachers at KS Language Academy make it fun to learn another language!

Hopefully you will now be encouraged to travel to other Spanish speaking destinations as well. Glad that Mexico was a good trip!

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend KS Language Academy enough for anyone looking to learn a new language or build on their existing language skills. I took private lessons with Mariana who helped me with my Spanish and I noticed a significant improvement in only a few lessons! She is extremely kind, patient, funny, and passionate about teaching Spanish. Everyone else at the academy has always been friendly and welcomed me with a smile whenever I came for lessons.

Fantastic experience: KS Language Academy is the place to learn from if you really want to learn Spanish. I am in a private class and in the four weeks I have been going, I have learned quite a lot. Definitely recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: I wholeheartedly recommend KS Language for learning Spanish. The teachers are brilliant and fun, the atmosphere is casual and inspiring. I take one private class and one small group class per week and it is working for me. I recently traveled to Mexico and was able to converse with the locals in Spanish!
