Immersion Program

COURSE

The student will work INDIVIDUALLY with the teacher 3 hours a day (in the morning or in the afternoon), with material, emphasizing communication and grammar. Through this method you will learn to speak, read and write in Spanish as well as to improve pronunciation.

Classes are given inside the house, in a comfortable and homey environment surrounded by daily life elements, which encourages one to achieve a different and more complete learning, immersing the student into a life in Spanish. If the student wants to have some classes outdoors to learn specific vocabulary or experience other real situations, classes in supermarkets, pubs, bars, cinemas, malls, etc, can be arranged.

Spanish Time is a method that allows one to immediately detect a student's difficulties regarding certain language items since it is a personalized and individually focused program. Thus, we are able to emphasize and intensify our job in finding solutions to those difficulties.


Fulltime Spanish Program

Spanish Time also offers an intensive course of 5 daily hours (3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon) that will be conducted by two teachers.


A certificate will be given, which indicates the number of hours studied.
