5-Day Spanish Language and Communicative Classes

5-Day Spanish Language and Communicative Classes

Spending a little time in Mexico and want to be able to communicate with the locals? This innovative program will introduce you to the Spanish Language and the diverse cultures of the Spanish-speaking world while developing structural accuracy for communication. The program's teaching method is known as the Communicative approach because you learn to speak by speaking but it is also integrated because the program combines culture, conversation and grammar. Practical examples, visuals, games and flashcards are used in every class.

The culture-seminars, cultural activities and excursions will help you understand the social context in which the language is used and will enhance your Spanish learning experience.

Study Spanish and learn about the Mexican culture at the same time while visiting the city of Merida. You can choose from the following 5-day courses:
