Methodology:
- At Lacunza-International House you will learn to communicate in Spanish. We are recognized for our committed teachers, and our dedication goes beyond the classroom, to the students accommodation and providing extracurricular activities.
- Our methodology, typical from International House, is really practical and requires a wide use of the language in the classes. For example, following a grammar lesson, students are required to apply, what they have learned, to a practical situation. The exercises at first are very controlled, and then are practiced more freely, so that the students incorporate new structures into their speech, while gradually adding new vocabulary.
- The quality of our courses is based on the team of professional teachers who share a common methodology. They followed our Teacher Training Course and work as a team (there are 2 teachers in each group), and they exchange ideas. They receive all the support from our Director of Studies, and the newest teachers take advantage of the experience of the older ones.
- We use of our own, detailed programmes which we adapt to each group. This way, apart from having great teachers, we also offer a unique school style. The result is that our students learn and and have fun doing it. Loads of them even come back for a refresher course or decide to stay longer.
