City Police Department, Redwood City, CA
Tactical Spanish for Law
Enforcement Officers is really an indispensable tool for the modern
police officer. Those of us who work in multi-lingual,
multi-cultural jurisdictions, recognize the importance of connecting
to our community. Oftentimes, language is the barrier that keeps
that from happening.
Your Spanish language Law
Enforcement courses have always been a delightful learning
experience for those of us lucky enough to have taken them in the
classroom and you’ve really done an excellent job of replicating
that experience with your new “learn at home” course. I was
impressed enough that our department purchased the course for all
interested officers. You’ve increased the positive connection
between our department and our Spanish-speaking community members
and I would heartily recommend Tactical Spanish for Law Enforcement
Officers to police officers or police agencies wishing to do the
same.

Brookman, Morgan Hill Police Department, Morgan Hill, CA
I started the Tactical Spanish
for Law Enforcement Officers and I enjoyed it. The course contains
much more than I’ve had to use so far. The vocabulary is simple
enough to use on the street. It is closer to the vernacular than any
other Spanish course I’ve seen. The Slang and Profanities section
was very useful.
It made me more believable to
those to whom I was speaking. It was much easier to establish a
rapport. The course is easy and has a natural flow that helps
learning.
I feel MUCH more confident with
my Spanish. It helped give me the courage to do the total immersion
in Zacatecas, Mexico!!
Officer Ruth Anne Jones,
Pearl Harbor Police Department, Pearl Harbor, HI
Your course Tactical Spanish for
Law Enforcement Officers helped me a lot in my job as a Federal
Police Officer. It was very easy to use and I think my confidence
has increased immensely in communicating with Spanish speaking
individuals while at work.
Deputy Sheriff David Weidner,
San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office, Redwood City, CA
I just wanted to take a moment
to tell you how great your course Tactical Spanish for Law
Enforcement Officers as well as your classes.! Prior to taking your
Spanish class and purchasing the self study course, I never spoke
any Spanish.
When I was on patrol, I worked
in a Hispanic community. It was important for me to try and learn
Spanish so I could communicate with the citizen which I served. I
thought this was going to be difficult since I never had any formal
Spanish classes. All I did was listen to one CD a night and follow
along in the work book. Within 2 weeks I was able to understand and
speak more Spanish than I ever thought possible. This is by far the
best Spanish teaching course I ever had. It is very easy to follow
and the best part about the course is, it’s something you can do
at your own pace. I would recommend this to any peace officer.
Again, thank you.
