Would you like to learn Spanish?. May be needed in your profession, or just to travel, to communicate with Spanish speaking people, and get to know our culture. You will cover your needs: A professional language course, so you get into Latin American world with more knowledge of grammar and writing, with more emphasis on speaking. We will provide you of whatever is necessary. We will find your level out, whether you are a beginner or an intermedium. Courses are available for individuals or small groups (maximum 4 people).
I am Carolina Tenías, and I have been teaching Spanish for travellers during 14 years. Please, let me tell you something about my courses:
- Why should you study Spanish?
* Latin America is a beautiful part of the world to travel around. We have nice people, and a very interesting culture. But, unfortunately, not many Latin Americans speak English, or any other language, excepting the Spanish one. So, you will enjoy your trip a lot more, keep the nicest memories, and make new good friends when you are able to communicate with the locals, and to express by yourself.
-Why should you study with me, and not in an institute?
* I have been teaching the language for more than 14 years, and I am reccommended in some travel guides, such as "Reise-Know-How" and "FootPrint". * The lessons are person-to-person. Thus, I can dedicate all my time and my effort to teach you in a patient and amusing way; and answer all your questions. * We can make a flexible schedule; so that you will have time to learn Spanish, and enjoy your time here by doing excursions, going to discos, meeting new people, etc. * I speak English, a bit of German, and some Italian, and my grammar and drill books are in English and German. * You can also learn Spanish in an institute -if you rather so-, and take a person-to-person course: The difference will be the price!.
- How do I make my course, and what do I include?
* The lessons are given according to your needs. They consist of grammar, conversation, and written and oral drills. * Practical and useful material and guides are included.
- How many hours per day, and for how long should you take the course?
* It is reccommended a minimum of one and a half hours, and a maximum of four hours per day. * For how long?: It really depends on your level, and also, on how much you do dedicate to your lessons.
- Where do I teach?
* At the Posada "Europa"... Sorrounded by a cozy and familiar atmosphere.
- How much does it costs, and how can you pay?
* The course costs US$ 8.00 per hour/ person, and the minimum time is 15 hours/ week. * The payment must be at least, one week in advance. And you can do it in Bolivars or in Dollars (cash).
P.S.: If you like, I can also make a package including the course and the accommodation.
Do not forget that languages, in general, are hard to learn. But, once you have started to speak Spanish and to discover our world, you will feel fortunate..., and really welcome to Latin America.
