Good video! The most important thing in life is knowledge of foreign languages! Thanks to foreign languages you can realize all your dreams and realize your grandiose ambitions! I would like to recommend all the practices of Yuriy Ivantsiv ''Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign language". This book will be an indispensable helper, a handbook for every person who studies a foreign language! This book contains invaluable tips, questions and answers, and solutions to problems faced by anyone who studies a foreign language! Knowledge is power! And knowledge of foreign languages is your power multiplied by many times! Success to all in self-development!

I'm glad you've left this review; however, I remain skeptical. In my worldview, the perfect instructor would be a teacher whose native language is English but who has a C2 command of Spanish. Or perhaps one who just grew up bilingually. I think a native English speaker will better understand the grammatical structures that confuse the English speaker because those structures simply don't exist in English--e.g., the multitudinous and seemingly superfluous pronouns and certain uses of "se"; the reflexive verbs (one of the easier ones), the pronominals, etc.
Also, this is the second Baselang review I've watched on CZcams. When you first sign on, are you tested? Do you then receive structured classes based on your placement? Or is everything conversational from the start? Are the teachers on BaseLang certified by a creditable educational body of some sort or are they selected based on their bilingual fluency?
I just noticed your video is two years old, but I've already written my comment so I'm sending it. :-)
