15 Combined Spanish Group and Individual Lessons in Ecuador

You will have six hours of Spanish classes for the Bildungsurlaub per day, with which you can decide if you want to combine 4 hours of group classes with 2 hours of private classes per day or do 6 hours of private classes only. GROUP CLASSES The school believes group classes are the best way to practice what you learn and build up confidence. As you will be conversing with other students, your understanding of the language will grow much faster than it would by yourself! You don’t need to worry about pairing with a more fluent speaker either; they have six different ability groups designed to match you with students at the same level as you. These mini-group Spanish classes take up 20 hours a week and are comprised of two 2-hour lessons per day, 5 days a week. They’ll have you fluent in no time! Individual students getting the attention they need is important. That is why the school has a maximum of 6 students per class, so each student gets lengthy and focused help. Morning classes consist of 2 hours of grammar-based learning, while the afternoons include 2 hours of conversational Spanish with an active, hands-on approach that has proven extremely effective. Many of the students enjoy practicing their new Spanish abilities with locals in town and by participating in the additional activities, such as a Spanish cooking class or yoga classes! PRIVATE SPANISH The private classes work wonders for those who function best with individual, focused attention. The teacher being able to direct their entire focus to the student’s exact ability level without being split between multiple students can facilitate more efficient learning, depending on your personal style. If you have to work around a busy schedule or if you wish to progress as quickly as possible, private classes are your best option. Your teacher will primarily follow the tried and tested syllabus but will make time to focus on areas you need the most help in, which will be discussed in your first class where you and your teacher can identify your strengths and weaknesses. Through this, your teacher will get to know you better and apply the learning style that works best for you.
