Language
Teaching
The
primary objective of our courses is for the student to obtain
a good level of spoken and written Spanish. For this reason
it is very important for us to manage to bring the class,
as much as possible to the reality of the Spanish language,
using for this purpose social and cultural elements that
are relative to the Hispanic world.
Our program is built upon a daily subject around which the
teacher develops the different language aspects, which help
the student ´s understanding and learning process.
For every subject the class will study communication, practical
grammar, vocabulary and its social usage. Classes can involve
activities in which the students will have to take field
trips to public places such as the local market or shops.
The
school specialises in academic Spanish:
Courses
are divided into six levels, level one is Breakthrough or
A1 level and Level 6 is Mastery or C2 level. The time spent
at each level varies from two to four weeks. An assessment
is conducted on the first day of the course to ascertain
the most appropriate entry level for the student. Thereafter,
the student’s progress is maintained by observation
and regular in-class assessments. In this way the teaching
staff will monitor, guide and encourage you to achieve the
most satisfying learning experience.
Academic
courses are Intensive group, Intensive one to one, Teenager
course, Children course, Business Spanish course. All these
courses follow the European Common Framework of Reference
for languages.
Our
program of courses is structured over the six levels of
the European Common Framework of Reference for languages:
A1 Breakthrough, A2 Waystage, B1 Threshold, B2 Vantage,
C1 Effective Operational Proficiency, and C2 Mastery
Those

Our
teachers use a wide range of aids and methods to ensure
rich and diverse courses . We use Videos, CDs, Newspapers,
Magazines, Literature, Spanish Films amongst other sources.
All
our students will receive a Certificate of Achievement on
completion of the course.
Not
only do we teach but we coach and motivate students in every
way we can. We make sure that students will be given the
proper course according to their needs and preference. The
school teaches to a very wide range of students and every
single one of them learns in a different way. For this reason
the school has developed a wide program with courses adapted
to the students various needs:
Children,
teenagers, university students, adults, business people
and retired persons all learn differently - for this reason
we will never mix them and will always make sure every one
has chosen the proper course.

is no limit of age for learning only the technique may vary…”
