This course has the same layout as the Basic Spanish Course, although the number of students per class is reduced to a maximum of 5. This ensures that each student receives the maximum amount of attention possible from the teacher, and that the classes are a lot more intense and fast moving.
Grammar classes are based on a course book. These course books are exclusive to our school alone, and use innovative teaching methods that are aimed at helping the student to develop their creative use of the language right from the start. The Spanish taught is that spoken in central Spain, although Latin American variations are explored. The authors have paid extra special attention to the variety of topics, activities and exercises addressed in each lesson. The objective is to highlight the importance of good grammar when learning to write and communicate in a new language. The lessons are divided into different levels, according to the European system (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2).
The conversation classes present the ideal opportunity for students to put into practice what they learn in the grammar classes. Lessons are backed up by course material, which comprises of activities designed to encourage each student to actively participate in classes, to develop their creativity and enthusiasm for the language, and to interact with other students. Students also learn how to structure and organise their ideas in Spanish. This course ranks among the most popular with our students.
