Class A: Language and Vocabulary Work
We start with a reading
and a listening practice followed by comprehension activities and
exercises to exploit the language and vocabulary they contain.
The reading and listening material is also used to present the
language, the functions and grammar to be taught. This class is a
preparation for:
Class B: Grammar and Oral Work
As mentioned before, our
main objective is that the student becomes communicatively
competent. Consequently, grammar is taught in so far as it’s
necessary for him to get his message across effectively. So, after a
brief grammar explanation, we have all the necessary elements for
oral practice and we devote more than an hour to practicing
conversation.
This means that, if, for example, he has to learn how to ask for
directions, the relevant grammar is explained and then, after a
range of graded activities, the student is ready to engage in a
conversation in which he has to ask for and give directions.
However, it all depends on the student. A person with an advanced
level might want to concentrate mainly on the speaking skill. So
classes will be designed differently to this layout to suit his
needs.
Pronunciation is important and even vital to be understood, so
pronunciation practice is included. But don’t panic! Correct
pronunciation takes time and using the right language and vocabulary
into the correct structure is what matters most.
Materials
Students will have a core
course book and corresponding compact disc for listening and
pronunciation practice, but extra material is provided by the
teacher.
Both course books and extra material are up to date and include
current events, articles of interest to the student, news, cultural
tips, travel and tourism, history, etc.
In the listening practice students are exposed to a variety of
Spanish language accents from different countries but, again, this
depends on the level of the student. At a beginner’s stage, he needs
to focus only on Río de La Plata Spanish accent.
