Scotish accent or not, you guys are the best! The lessons are VERY easy to follow. Not too fast paced that you miss everything and not too slow that you get bored with the lessons.
Keep on keepin on!

@Irish… LOLOL I do love these comments. As we’ve said many times before on our website, on iTunes and in our episodes themselves, we are in fact Scottish, and as the teacher on the show I’m perfectly comfortable with my Spanish accent having lived and worked in Spain. It may not be the Spanish accent you’re used to if you’re in the US, but you don’t have to look very far to see very positive comments on my Spanish accent. Of course I sound Scottish when I speak in English – I’m hardly likely to put on an American accent, but my Spanish accent in Spanish is authentic and has helped hundreds of thousands of learners around the world to learn Spanish. Thanks for your comments nonetheless…
@Marieq Thanks, we’re pleased you’re enjoying the lessons.

Oh, Mark I beg you, do not feed the trolls!
I love your lessons (in Show Time Spanish)
and your Spanish accent too. There so no need
to discuss about it at all.
Saludos cordiales de Polonia.

Hey Mark,
As an American, I have to say that I love the attempt at the flat American accent you and Kara did when you recorded this. And, thank god, we don’t all sound like that. Oh, and as to the comments about your “Irish accents”, I’m afraid that many of my countrymen aren’t even aware that there is a difference. I look forward each new, well new for me, lesson. And, one other thing, Me gusta cantar tambien, and enjoy the songs you share.
Hasta luego,
Arnie
