Testimonials

Carocon Construction Company
"Our superintendents really enjoyed CPCC's Command Spanish class with Kelly Webb.  As a result of the classes, they are now better able to communicate with the Spanish speaking contractors on job sites.  Their effort has paid off in another way as well; the superintendents feel that they now better understand these Latino workers."

"Command Spanish has been a great help to our business, about 90% of our employees are Hispanic and don't speak English.  There has always been a language barrier but thanks to Command Spanish and Kelly we are closing that gap and helping our managers that come into contact with these employees to be able to explain what they need to do or what the manager needs.  This has been a great tool, and the best part is that you don't have to have a previous knowledge of Spanish.  I would recommend Command Spanish.

"Not only did CPCC tailor its program to our time constraints, CPCC also provided us with very qualified facilitators that could adjust the class to meet the needs of the specific audience.  The facilitator was one of the most engaging facilitators that I have ever met.  She ensured that those students who were more fluent in Spanish were never bored while maintaining some semblance of dignity for those of us that were novices.  In all classes, even the most advanced student left the class with the knowledge of a new skill.  I must say to accomplish that feat with a mixed audience of novice and experts in one class is a task that few professional trainers are capable of successfully tackling, but the facilitators from CPCC did it with ease. CPCC provided what I needed, when I needed it, and how I needed it!
