Spanish Training Methodology

Conversa's Spanish training methodology relies on the philosophy that regardless of your age or proficiency level in spoken Spanish, you can make dramatic progress in Spanish if provided with the following:

We call our methodology for teaching Spanish Constant Contact. The idea is to put you in contact with Spanish right from the start, and to keep you in touch with the language at all times, morning, noon and night. Study Spanish in Costa Rica

Spanish Language Training

At Conversa we're proud to have built up a Spanish teaching and support staff capable of ensuring that these three aspects are not only provided, but also that they complement each other to exceed our students' expectations. We believe that Spanish language training simply cannot take place without an adequate Spanish training methodology.

The process starts as soon as you step out of the airport terminal here in Costa Rica. Twenty minutes later, you’re getting acquainted with your host family or staff members, depending on your lodging choice. You’ll have a day or two to become acquainted with your new surroundings. Then, you’re at Conversa. We give you an oral and a written test, place you in a small group of no more than four students around your age, and at your level of proficiency. You’ll have a different instructor every week. The emphasis will be on helping you to acquire listening and speaking skills. Spanish Language Training

The classes are conducted entirely in Spanish. A specific grammar sequence is covered each week, but in a conversation format. You need to attend classes, participate actively in class and prepare your daily homework assignments. You’ll be surprised at the results.
