I am travelling to Spain this summer, where I will take an Spanish course, and in preparation, I…read morethought I would enroll in a class here. I'm taking classes right now, and while the first week was great, I'm really not so into it now. I'm in the advanced beginner level, as I took Spanish in high school (about ten years ago). I am not fluent at all, but have some vocabulary, and can conjugate in present tense. Pros: 1. Right now, it's just me and the instructor. So, I'm stoked about personal instruction for just $14 per hour. (Cost depends on length of course. Check the website for more info. http://institutomesoamerica.com/) However, I don't believe this is the norm. 2. Instructor seems to be patient with me, as I try to figure out how to conjugate the past tense. UPDATE: He's not so patient anymore... see below... 3. Must think of third "pro" Cons: 1. Teaching method is not creative. I have dittos, from which I conjugate verbs. Sometimes they are in sentences, sometimes, just the verb. Today we did this for over 2 hours of the 3 hour class. So freaking boring. 2. Sometimes I feel like the instructor is SUPER bored. Which makes my selfconciousness kick into high gear. 3. I do not feel that there is enough interaction between me and the instructor. 4. Instructor claims to use a NATURAL teaching method, and a NEW approach to teaching Spanish. Ummm. What?? Reading off a ditto is natural and new??? 5. Instructor IS bored! He taps his fingers, stretches and is not patient. Corrects me before I have the chance to correct myself. 6. Misspellings on the dittos. Gets annoyed when I don't understand the words, which happen to be in ANOTHER LANGUAGE AND ARE MISSPELLED. 7. Doesn't follow along on the dittos. Corrects me even when I'm right, as he's not looking at the ditto. 8. Somehow thinks that I will remember EVERY word we've used previously. Thanks, but I'm not magic. But I will definitely try suggesting some other activities to the instructor, and asking about specific things that I would like to learn, such as practicing being at a hotel/train station/restaurant. Hopefully, the instruction will improve. UPDATE: I added a star, because I felt satisfied with the resolution I recieved. I was unhappy with this particular school and recieved a refund. Very honest and wanted to resolve the problem, and I appreciate that.

After hiring them for their captioning services for a movie caption file to be uploaded to amazon…read morevideo. I was quoted the total project price by the sales rep. When I received the invoice the price then changed to be more. This should have been a red flag, after some more back and forth they changed it to the price that was quoted. Shortly after I receive a message from one of their representatives stating that I would have to pay more for full translation services which would be a 50% cost increase. I had provided a script to avoid this cost which was worked out in the original quote. They carried on to "convert the file to Amazon specs". I received the file and it was uploaded to amazon where it was rejected due to a UTF-8 encoding issue. I sent them the message error and they sent me a new "fixed" file. It was uploaded and rejected again. I then replied to them with the error and that I would like a refund and was not satisfied with their service as the file failed twice now. During the process of asking for a refund, they first told me that it would take 45 business days. I challenged this and they changed it and said 3-5 business days ONCE APPROVED. I asked if my refund is approved and they said they will review it. After 3 days of back and forth on this matter, they finally said they will not issue a refund and that if we wanted they would upload the file to Amazon and maybe that would work. I replied by saying on their website it states 100% satisfaction guaranteed or your money back and we were not satisfied. I asked them for a detailed description of what they actually did to the file. We paid per minute for over an hour of footage to have captioned and compliant for amazon, if no actual translation was taking place and the file kept failing what was this "amazon compliant" captioning service we paid for. I asked for a detailed description/explanation of what they did for our service. All they sent was the invoice line item with the description and cost. They offered little explanation and any they did offer was purposefully vague and void of any real detail. In summary, I would not recommend their services. I know there are issues sometimes and things don't work, I get that. The way they handled this when asking for a refund was the worst I have ever experienced. They gave me the run around for days wasting my time and the time of others. They tried to discourage me by saying the process would take 45 days. They offered little to no detail on the work that was actually done. Don't trust what they quote you if you negotiate on a price chances are there will be additional costs after the project starts to get to that original inflated quote.

Easy to use & 100% accurate!…read more I am a Financial advisor whose success depends on having the ability to understand client needs and goals. I am also involved in many community service organizations and the need for having clear and accurate notes of meetings are of the utmost importance. I used the Transcription Service to record a Goodwill Board Meeting and was shocked at how they transformed the entire meeting into exact paper notes. All I had to do was carry a recorder half the size of a cell phone and turn it on. Within a few days, I had the meeting in my hand, word for word, and spoken by whom. It was certainly better than the minutes that were taken by hand. Jeffry was also very professional and available to answer any questions I had. This is an excellent service for attorneys, CPA's, and other professionals like myself. I highly recommend it!

It was easy to submit, just sent in photocopies online and Omar got back to me the next day. It was Friday, and once we agreed to go forward the translation was complete and I picked it up early the next week. I should mention these are doctor's notes (a profession with notoriously bad handwriting =)) and maybe 4-5 pages in all. They're in a nice downtown location in San Mateo, it would be easy to get to even if you had to take CalTrain. Kind, friendly, and most importantly quick and at a reasonable price. If I ever need more translations, I would gladly go there again.

An Exceptional Legal Team -- Highly Recommended…read more I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Meisel Law Group, especially Lauren Meisel and Wendy Kwan Tam, for their professionalism, dedication, and outstanding representation of my mother. My 86-year-old mother was seriously injured when a heavy metal gate at the entrance of her apartment building struck her and caused her to fall, resulting in a fractured pelvis. During such a difficult and stressful time for our family, we were fortunate to find Meisel Law Group to represent us. From the very beginning, Lauren and Wendy put my mother's well-being and best interests first. They were compassionate, attentive, and extremely professional. They fought hard to protect her rights, stood firmly for what she deserved, and never hesitated to advocate for her interests. Their knowledge, determination, and exceptional performance throughout the case gave our family great confidence and peace of mind. We are extremely satisfied with their representation and deeply grateful for everything they did for my mother. A very special thank-you to Lauren Meisel and Wendy Kwan Tam for their hard work, compassion, and dedication. They are truly outstanding legal professionals, and I would highly recommend Meisel Law Group to anyone looking for a caring, experienced, and determined legal team.
