"I studied Spanish with Javi for 5 months in 2014. First his enthusiasm stood out in his teaching of the language and his seriousness in class. Javi himself is very happy and open when he socializes with people. I can definitely say that he is a great professor and one of my best friends from Bilbao."
- Y.S (Japanese) 

"Three years ago a friend from Barcelona suggested I go to Bilbao, not only to visit the city, but also to study Spanish there. I met my professor Javi, who turned out to be an excellent professor, for his knowledge of the language along with all the difficulties it brings, as for his humor, pattience and passion in the teaching of Spanish that transmits to all of his students. I really like Spain and its language, and I will surely return to Bilbao, a prescious city, especially to have Spanish classes with Javi, whom I consider not only my professor but also a good friend."
- Eduard Vermeulen (Dutch)

"I studied Spanish with Javi for a period of eight months. As a professor, I have to say, he knew how to combine a special way of learning Spanish with other aspects like the customs, culture, gastronomy and Spanish history. This way I was able to not only understand and improve a foreign language but also get to know an amazing country like Spain, and of course, my dear Bilbao."
- Melanie Möller (German)
