About Spanish Language DC Cervantes group

This is a group of people who love Spanish.

We try to meet as often as possible in order to spend a great time together while practicing the language.

We are happy to give you a lot of tips so that you can improve your Spanish speaking skills.

One of them: To practice as much as possible, you can visit : www.learnspanishdc.com daily. There are amazing pictures about Latin America, always with a short text.
We recommend beginners to read the titles, and intermediate and advance members to read the whole text.

You will find there newspapers from all Spanish speaking countries, embassies in DC, TV in Spanish, other meetups and more!

We encourage you to sign up at the other Spanish Language meetups of the area: The Virginia Spanish Language Meetup Group and The Maryland Spanish Language Meetup Group and at the THIRD BIGGEST SPANISH LANGUAGE MEETUP GROUP OF THE WORLD!: The Washington Spanish Language Meetup Group.
It's all about practice, practice, practice, and fun!! So dare to attend the meetings, and you'll make a giant progress!!

We would like to invite you to visit Spanish Now!, the fun and fast way to learn Spanish. The contribution from this institution enables us to organize this Maryland Spanish Language Meetup Group with high professionalism, and to offer you a variety of great events.

ON THE HOME PAGE ONLY SOME EVENTS ARE SHOWN. TO SEE ALL MEETINGS THAT WE HAVE PLANNED, PLEASE CLICK On the home page on "More from our calendar" and then click on "Upcoming meeting list"!!

MEMBERSHIP FEES: Being a member of the group is free, but we need some funds to keep moving! We want really to make the events great, fun, and with the highest level of professionalism. That's why we need to charge for the events. Funds will be destined to pay the monthly Meetup Group fee charged to the organizer by Meetup.com and any expenses incurred in promoting the group and organizing events.

YOU ARE NOT PAYING FOR ANY SERVICE! Please be aware that when you submit a meeting fee, you are not paying for any service to the organizers, but you are just sharing the expenses! Believe me that it's not only time that we are giving gladly to organize the events the best way we can, but very often we must even pay from our own pockets when we aren't able to collect enough money to pay the expenses.

So please, give encouragement, support, help... The group, as any group, needs people who want to share some responsabilities, positive members who can contribute to the community. When you really feel responsible for a group, your attitude is always positive. It doesn't mean that you won't express your concerns; it means that you will see them from a positive perspective.

ABOUT RSVPs

YES rsvp - A YES rsvp means that you are planning to really be there. If you rsvp YES, we expect to see you at the event. We know things happen that you can't control, but then please change your RSVP so that others can attend. Unlike some other groups, we (still :-) do not keep a tally on no-shows and ban you from the group.
In some cases we need your commitment paying before. If we say so, please don't rsvp YES without first paying by Paypal (also with your credit card possible).

MAYBE rsvp Some of our events won't have this option. At some other meetings we need your commitment paying before (we say that in the invitation). In this case you'll have the option of maybe, but 24 hours before the event we'll change automatically all maybes to NO, so that others may attend. If there is enough place, you can still change your NO to YES.

NO rsvp - Please, no NO rsvps. We don't need them. If you are not interested in the event, just ignore it.


I hope that you will enjoy this super great group as much as we, the organizers, do!!

With all we offer, there is no excuse not to become fluent soon!! :-))


Gracias! Nos vemos! Evelyn
