Spanish FLUENCY Workshop.

WHO: Designed for students who would like to mainatain and strengthen language skills or to prepare for an upcoming class, or students from Spanish language backgrounds who need to hone their native speaking ability.

WHAT: Participate in as many weeks as you would like. This program will expose students to basic Spanish skills or help students improve their reading and writing, and spoken Spanish language skills by participating in daily structured exercises in ongoing Spanish classes. Read great poetry, plays and stories. Practice enunciation, review grammar and syntax. Read newspapers, listen to recorded works to improve comprehension and fluency in Spanish. An academic classroom-style program is planned, challenging students with graded exercises and two daily hours of classroom instruction. Recognizing that a spoken language is a skill developed through the repetitive practice of good habits, the student will receive the greatest benefit from timely completion of assigned exercises and active participation.

WHERE: Meets at the Heights

WHEN: Design your own program…Meets five days per week, Monday through Friday, from 08:00 – 10:00 AM (Advanced), or from 10:00am – 12:00pm (Basic/Intermediate) from 8 July to 16 August. Students may participate in as many sessions they desire.
