The
native-speaking teachers have a university degree in Spanish philology
and have had professional teacher training. Their knowledge and
experience in teaching foreign students guarantee top-quality
training.
In teaching, the direct method is used, this
means that Spanish is the language of instruction and the use
of other languages is avoided as much as possible. The vocabulary
and grammar are taught in context. Summaries of grammar and written
or oral exercises are provided in our schoolbooks, which are designed
by the teachers.
Much emphasis is put on the speaking ability
of the students. Students will have to prepare small oral lectures
and presentations to hold group discussions. In addition audio
and video equipment, songs, newspapers, magazines and language
games are used to incorporate the many different ways a language
can be used.
Academia Málaga PLUS offers 3 different
types of courses:
- Standard Course (4 lessons/day from 9:30
- 13:30 and * 17:00 - 21:00)
- Intensive Course (6 lessons/day from 8:30
- 14:30 )
- Individual Tuition
* in the high and some
time in the mid season classes will be held in the afternoon as
well.
After
every lesson of 45 minutes there is a 10 minute break. The main
break of 30 minutes is held from 11:15 to 11:45 (in the afternoon
from 18:45 to 19:15). Before the main half hour break, lessons
concentrate on grammar and afterwards on conversation.
The class groups are evenly matched and contain
a maximum of 8 students. Keeping the classes on a smaller-scale
leaves plenty of opportunity to speak openly and frequently during
conversation classes, as well, it makes it easier to meet your
fellow classmates! |
