Program Methodology

The unique set-up of the four-level Spanish language program leading to a Certificate of Proficiency takes a holistic approach to language learning. Communicative and eclectic approaches are blended, and all four skills are deemed equally important from the initial stages.

In level one, students will receive a comprehensive overview of all major aspects of Spanish grammar and syntax, providing them with sufficient skills to communicate in everyday situations. In each subsequent level, students will build on and expand their previous knowledge, while vocabulary building will be an ongoing effort throughout the program focusing on increasingly more complex language situations at each level. Upon completion of the program, students will have acquired a high level of language competence and will be able to communicate with confidence in a wide variety of social and professional settings.
