101. General A (20 hours per week) |
Description
General description
This intensive course is designed for anyone interested in improving their Spanish, enhancing their fluency, and gaining confidence in various communicative situations. With a maximum of six students per class, the content, objectives, and methodology are always tailored to the individual needs and level of each student.
If the student already has knowledge of Spanish, their level is precisely determined before the course begins with written and oral tests. This course is also available for absolute beginners.See the table of levels and self-assessment / online test).
Methodological approach: what the course consists of and how I will learn
The course development is based on the practice continuous from Spanish. Combines the practice from grammar with the practice of communication. A succession of interactive classroom activities, developed from the most advanced perspective of linguistic studies, which aim at the continuous participation of the student.
In summary: practical exercises and communicative activities to improve the four skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Teacher rotation: teachers change in each class.
At what rate will I progress?
The content from level A1 to C2 is distributed in 24 modules de 1 This weekly program can be supplemented with additional modules, if needed, to progress from levels A1 to C1, as well as specialized courses to reach level C2. This structured curriculum ensures the progressive acquisition of communicative skills, from the initial levels (including absolute beginners) to the advanced levels (C1 and C2). Students begin in the module corresponding to their level, which is determined beforehand through an interview and a test.
The method's adaptability allows beginners to become familiar with a new language, begin using it, and gain confidence (A1, A2); from the intermediate level (B1) to master it and speak it fluently, achieving maximum communicative independence (B2); and at the advanced levels (C1, C2) to reach the highest level for complete mastery of Spanish. All students, regardless of their level, enjoy Spanish from day one in a unique immersive environment.
Out of class
To achieve the objectives, extracurricular activities with teachers are very important. Bi-weekly schedule.
