Our teaching methods are based on the communicative approach. Special emphasis is placed on conversation, so that students can make themselves understood in Spanish right from the start. We think it is essential for the students to actively participate in the lessons; to achieve this main goal, grammar exercises and vocabulary work are combined with oral practice and pronunciation drills: group work, discussions, role playing, games, literary & journalistic texts, audio & video recordings of real material...

Some lessons are held out of the school, so that the students can face real situations: at the market, at the travel agency...

In order to start lessons right away on the first day of the course, the students must complete a placement test before their arrival in Santiago.

There are 7 levels of General Language courses:

● Beginner (A1)
● Elementary (A2)
● Lower-intermediate (B1)
● Intermediate (B2)
● Upper-intermediate (C1)
● Advanced (C2)
● Proficiency

Students who attend classes regularly will receive a certificate of attendance stating the duration and level of their course.

Groups have an average of 5 students and a maximum of 8.
● 1 lesson = 45 minutes.
● One-to-one hours = 60 minutes.
