I did a search online as I was looking to learn Spanish, and I came across a recommendation written from someone on Facebook and I received the details for Jose and his company - Embrujo Castellano Spanish online.
It is very difficult to say how much I love these classes, and it has become a ritual for me, not only am I learning a new language, I have also made friends because of this class. What I appreciate the most about these online classes is that José has never once made me feel like I was not doing well or that I was stupid, he uses humour and a very gentle way of getting the words to somehow magically stick into my head!
I have had the pleasure of meeting José in person and doing interactive classes with him in Malaga and was able to learn and practice and see the sights with him and learn even more Spanish, we were asked to leave the art museum because we were laughing so much at all the funny pictures.
I highly recommend José and his classes. There is a depth to him and his work and his work ethics that I truly enjoy.

I want to express my highest recommendation for Embrujo Castellano. Professor José Begara has exceptional dedication and passion for teaching Spanish. His teaching methodology is innovative and dynamic, which keeps his students always interested and motivated. Furthermore, his dedication to his students goes beyond the classroom. He is always available to provide additional support, answer questions and offer valuable advice. José's passion for teaching is contagious. Their enthusiasm and love for the Spanish language is reflected in each class, creating a positive and stimulating learning environment. It is evident that for him, teaching is not just a job, but a true vocation.

I had a good experience learning Spanish with Jose for 2 months. My language level improved drastically from only being able to buy coffee, to actual conversation. I selected him as he offers in person classes, and we visited various interesting spots around town to talk and learn about them. Definitely more interesting than sitting inside a classroom, or worse, online in front of a computer.

Languages has always been a skill that I have struggled to a grasp of and disliked learning.
When I came to move to Spain, I decided to really commit to learning Spanish.
When I found Jose, he was super nice! Throughout my time with him, he was always super patient and engaged with my learning. The lessons he provided was not just any simple ‘language’ lesson; he opened my eyes to the wider culture to really understanding the spirit of learning the language.
Jose always tailored around my learning style and understands the commitments this needs. Whenever he was in the area, he would always jump at the chance in learning in person which I really appreciate.
I have no moved back to the UK, however I have come out really appreciating the learning process of learning a language and to actually have fun with it! With Jose, as well as coming out of it knowing a new teacher; I came out having a new friend!

When we were looking for ways to improve our spanish while in Malaga, all we could find were the usual inflexible language schools. The ones that cram you in a classroom with a bunch of other people and try to teach you based on a fixed lesson plan, regardless of your needs and preferences.
Needless to say, we didn't want that, so we looked for alternatives until we found Jose.
He was very attentive, understood our needs and offered us a unique learning experience. Instead of the usual, formal classes, we met up in bars, talked about music, beer, social issues, travel and so much more.
Learning with Jose was a one of a kind experience.
Besides teaching us the language, he shared a lot of cultural facts, making us understand the spanish and andalusian society better. He also helped us with a lot of awesome tips for our trip to Granada.
We were lucky to find Jose and get the chance to know him. We looked for a teacher and we found a friend.

★★★★★ 5/5
Language helps us to understand the world. We can communicate, that is, not only to speak but also listen. Learn the Spanish language by traveling through the history of its towns, the ingredients of its cuisines and conversations full of technology, language and culture, among other topics.
