SUMMER INTENSIVE COURSES
Dates for 2018
Beginners: 09th to 20th of July
Inetermediate: 23st July to 03th August
Advanced: 6th to 17th August
Training methods
We offer small-sized groups, with a maximum of 7 people. Instructors work on an individual basis with all students. We teach using the communicative approach which, in our opinion, is the most effective. Therefore, communication and conversational interactions are priority for us. We know that the Spanish language you study will be useful in the future. Therefore, we set up classes to simulate real life situations. Having this in mind we assure you that your training will be comfortable and cheerful.
Why do we create our own learning materials?
Due to our extensive teaching and publishing experience we know that there is no such thing as an ideal teaching method. There is no ideal text book. In our school we believe that the best way to learn a language is to immerse in it. Consequently, we adopt our materials based on the individual need of each of our students and groups. Teaching materials include all aspects of language to be learned: spoken language, lexis, grammar, phonetics, orthography. Furthermore, for our classes we actively use modern technological equipment.
