Language Courses
Spanish Grammar- Learning
is based on the Communicative Approach, without losing sight
of the need for grammatical accuracy. Spanish language courses
are taught in Spanish and are designed to help students acquire
fluency and sufficient communicative skills to cope with any
situation that they are likely to encounter. The class size
is small to enable teachers to give a more personalized attention,
according to the specific needs of each student, and to encourage
more interaction in the classroom.
Global Communicative Practice-

speech-making and multimedia communications. Topics range from
