In our clases, you are the protagonist

Our Spanish classes are delivered totally in Spanish and all the teachers aim to make sure that our students can communicate effectively in Spanish from the first day. This goal is achieved by:

  • Well prepared classes and use of the most effective and current materials.
  • Experiences and educational updates continually improve our teachers.
  • Varied and fun classes through the use of books, videos, imagery, songs, games and more.
  • The ability to effectively recognise different ways of learning.

In our Spanish classes we use task-based teaching methods, an evolution of the communicative approach. The idea behind task-based teaching involves utilising different resources for communication and implementing new communicative situations, so from day one you will be using Spanish to solve real life circumstances. The most natural way to learn a language.

Examples of class activities

Objectives:

  • Practice some irregular and reflexive verbs in present tense.
  • Speaking about habits and frequently used expressions.

Materials: Coloured paper, scissors, glue and magazine clippings to make posters.

Sequence:

  1. Each student will write up a series of questions to ask to each of their classmates about their habits. After asking the questions they make comparisons to see what they have in common.
  2. All the students will talk with their classmates about their habits using the questions to get information if necessary.
  3. With the information obtained, the students will decide which of them is the sleepyhead, the party animal, the most healthy, the most disorganised and the most vain in the class.
  4. The students will make posters with coloured paper and magazine clippings. One of which will be selected as the winner.
