All the Spanish programs are based on a one-to-one teaching system. The two options for learning spanish are:
INTENSIVE SPANISH PROGRAM (7 hrs/day)
This is a total Spanish immersion program, with seven hours of instruction per day. Daily learning involves continuous Spanish conversation, Spanish pronunciation correction, Spanish grammatical structure review, Spanish oral and written exercises and repetition. This learning method has been proven to be both highly effective and superior to other conventional Spanish teaching methods.
SEMI-INTENSIVE SPANISH PROGRAM (4 hrs/day)
This Spanish program is geared towards clients that are unable to dedicate seven hours of learning per day. The semi-intensive Spanish program is four hours per day, but with the same quality and methodology of the intensive program.
SPANISH PROGRAM DETAILS
Our Spanish programs are supplemented by our own textbook, which consists of 12 books. Each book corresponds to one level based on theoretical explanation and practical exercises. Beginners level consists of the first 4 books; Intermediate the second 4 books; and Advanced the last four books.
In the completion of each level, students will take both a written and oral evaluation to ensure that the concepts and material has been fully understood and learned. If the student has not obtained a 100% pass, the material will be reviewed again to ensure that all the material is understood.
The satisfaction of our clients is paramount. We are always looking for new and effective ways to refine our programs
METHODOLOGY
During the lessons, the instructor uses various multimedia resources (such as videos, audio & written) to make the learning experience more dynamic. Once a specified level of Spanish comprehension has been achieve, students have the opportunity to practice this knowledge during various optional field trips to various tourist attractions and destinations in and around Quito.
Our professional teachers will take every step to ensure that course material is both understood and learned by the student. Should a student have difficulty in one or more areas, the teacher will review the material to ensure that full comprehension is achieve. Their objective is to ensure that their student passes each level, 100%.
