How we Teach Spanish

What is LIFE™?

Our academic staff has developed a teaching methodology that is unique for Mediterráneo Spanish Centre called: LIFE™ = Language Immersion For Everyone.


LIFE™ stands for learning a new language in a natural, practical and fast way:

  • Natural because you learn the language as you learned your mother tongue, by using your intuition and exploring the meaning of words and expressions.
  • Practical because you can use what you have learned from the first day in everyday situations.
  • Fast because our methodology and full language immersion help you to truly cement the new language which allows you to build your new language skills faster.

Class Size

You can't really learn a language properly if you don't get the chance to speak or the attention from the Spanish teacher to correct you.


That is why all the Spanish classes at Mediterráneo Spanish Centre have a maximum of eight students.

Class Setup

Your daily Spanish Intensive Course is split into two parts of two class hours with a break in between.
A mixture of grammar, conversational skills, oral and written comprehension as well as writing are taught. The conversation element will become more important as you advance in the course.


If you follow the Super-Intensive course, then the third part of your day will be 2 class hours of extra conversation classes.


Please review other courses for their specific setup.

Group

We always try to mix nationalities as much as we can and at the same time keep the age differences as small as we can. This way, you are more likely to speak Spanish with each other and share similar interests.

Homework

Homework is entirely optional but as you know you'll make better progress if you prepare for your class every day. The workload is normally less than 30 minutes per day.
