Methods & LevelsOur main objective is to develop the students’ communication skills. We believe that the academic rigour offered in our courses must be complemented by an emphasis placed on inter-personal language skills, making the language learning process thorough and dynamic. Education, in our opinion, should be based on a more human approach, defined by respect for cultural differences and a motivating atmosphere. The materials that we use in the classroom are developed by our teaching staff according to the learning groups’ particular needs and adapted to the guidelines established by the Common European Framework of Reference for Language Learning and Teaching (MRE). All of our Spanish teachers have university degrees, post-graduate certification in language teaching, and are enthusiastic about their work.
