You'll learn to do 50 things in Spanish at each level. After three levels, do 150 things, and be functionally fluent! You'll feel connected, confident and capable. You'll go from frustrated, to fluent - and do more in Spanish!

Here's how it works:
The process is simple. At the end of each chapter of your online course, check off what you've learned to do - introduce yourself, order a meal, tell a story, make plans, and more! You'll walk away feeling accomplished, uplifted, and one step closer to being functionally fluent!
You're guided by Spanish teacher and course creator Diana María Gruber, who speaks six languages fluently. In over twenty years as a caring, committed language trainer, Diana has helped thousands of students become functionally fluent. Now it's your turn!

*The videos are not of Diana teaching the exercises. This isn't a "take notes" kind of class, so don't expect to see a teacher at a chalkboard! Instead, Diana guides and motivates you through self-paced study, including exercises, audio, dialogues, quizzes, and more! The course is simple yet robust - see full list of Course Components!

How do I know this works? Is it proven?
Yes! Functionally Fluent has been tested on thousands of learners for over fifteen years, with incredible results! We have a 99% success rate, and rave reviews - see below. Additionally, Functionally Fluent is based on methods used in Europe and internationally for decades, so while our course is modern, the approach behind it is tried-and-true.
How long will it take me?
About two months per level, which works out to about 1-3 hours per week (15-20 minutes per day). This means even if you start as a Beginner, you'll be functionally fluent in under six months! You could do it more quickly, like Patrick below, with a lot of real-life exposure and review for better retention. Functionally Fluent not only teaches you how to learn Spanish fluently, but also how to learn Spanish fast!
Which level should I get?
- The best value is all three levels together. It's also the most rewarding, since you'll do 150 things and end up functionally fluent!
- If you're not a Beginner, consider the Intermediate+Advanced bundle, also discounted.
- Bundles are the best deal, but each level is also sold on its own.

How is Functionally Fluent better?
As you can see, we offer much more value! Apps and CALL (computer-assisted language-learning) teach passively, and you won't get fluent by clicking on screens. We help you interact with people, not computers, to avoid frustration and boredom, and get fluent - fast!

What Spanish Learners are Saying about Functionally Fluent
"This course helped me learn more Spanish than anything I'd used before - and believe me, I'd tried everything - software, textbooks, apps, you name it! This is by far the best way to learn a language I've seen. I've just finished the Beginner level, and I'm excited to complete the whole series on my own."
Craig Smith, Project Manager
Functionally Fluent Beginner-Intermediate Learner
"Revolutionary! This actually does teach you how to speak and converse in Spanish. Ideal for the student who does not have the wherewithal to spend hours and hours studying grammar that only makes learning hard. Less is more!

"I'm a Spanish teacher and bought Functionally Fluent for my class for adults who had taken Spanish in high school and couldn't 'function' in Spanish. It's a great method to help me help them become fluent in tasks. At the end of the third class, they claimed to have learned more than in the years in school.

“After completing Functionally Fluent's Beginner Spanish course, which took me just a few weeks, I took a college placement exam and placed out of the first semester of college Spanish. After the Intermediate course, I placed out of two semesters. After the Advanced course, I placed out of all four semesters of college Spanish.
This program has saved me thousands of dollars and dozens of hours of my time.
Not to mention, it made me actually fluent in Spanish. I can now speak with my wife's family in Peru, and have no problems when I'm there.
I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have accomplished that in a few weeks of college classes!

We know our program really works!
