Welcome to Classic Spanish Classes

Learning a language is a treasure that no one can take away.

Dr. Fiordaliza Ippolito founded Classic Spanish Classes. She has many years of teaching experience as a professor at different Universities. She developed a methodology for teaching Spanish online and in-person that is effective for learning the Spanish language.

At Classic Spanish Classes, we believe that learning Spanish is more than just studying a language. It is also about culture. It’s a way to connect, grow, and build bridges. Spanish is the second most spoken language in the United States, with over 43 million people speaking it as their primary language at home. As the Spanish-speaking population continues to grow, we’ve developed a teaching approach that helps you feel confident speaking Spanish in real situations.

Whether you're a beginner, or intermediate learner, or looking to help your child learn a new language, we’re here to support you every step of the way.
