FEEL CONFIDENT IN 90 DAYS OR LESS WITH THE AMIDON METHOD
I've got the perfect way for you to feel confident speaking Spanish and English like a native in 90 days or less.
It's called the Amidon Method.
Many language programs and apps focus heavily on grammar, but that doesn't always translate to speaking confidently.
That's why I created the Amidon Method! It ensures that you learn to speak Spanish and English like a native with confidence.
All my teachers are trained in the Amidon Method. They tailor your lessons to how you learn best and use a variety of interactive materials to ensure you enjoy every single lesson.
We love seeing your confidence and ability to speak and understand improve with each lesson!

ABOUT THE FOUNDER
& LANGUAGE COACH
JACKIE AMIDON DONALDSON
Traveler turned teacher, I have a passion for languages and a knack for helping students unlock their hidden linguistic talents.
My journey began with an insatiable wanderlust, leading me to explore the world and immerse myself in different cultures.
In 2017, after managing an English language institute in Peru, I founded Amidon Studios to share my passion.
Today, as a certified Spanish and English teacher with over 20 years of experience, I witness the joy of language learning firsthand.
I'm a lifelong learner myself, fluent in English, Spanish, and French, with Italian and Portuguese on my horizon.
When I'm not teaching, you'll find me exploring the outdoors or tending to my garden.

Madhavi, San Diego, CA
I'm so glad I signed up for Italian class! I've always wanted to learn another language but language learning wasn't one of my personal strengths. Nothing stuck with me. After traveling and falling in love with Italy, I love that now I'm able to learn at my own pace from an awesome teacher. I can't wait to use my Italian in all my future trips!
India, Phoenix, AZ
My kids' Spanish teacher is an upbeat, knowledgeable, and attentive instructor. She tailors the classes to my kids' needs and frequently evaluates their progress and direction. She creates interactive games and uses bright and interesting videos to supplement. One of my favorite things may be the cultural tidbits that she includes in the lessons.
