SBT Spanish Academy was founded by Erich Meza, a native Spanish speaker and multifaceted professional who moved to New York in 2009.
After teaching in various language academies, Erich realized that one of the principle challenges of learning Spanish is that the majority of classes are standardized, and the student is expected to adapt to one form or structure of teaching. Erich created his own method of personalizing classes to address the needs of each student, and started to teach as an independent tutor. Little by little, his students began to recommend his classes and generated a large demand for his services.
Unable to directly take on more students in his schedule, and with the goal of giving more students access to his system, Erich created SBT, a boutique style Academy where each class is crafted according to the student profile.
