Over the years we have developed a dynamic and efficient method which allows to our students to communicate effectively and idiomatically, whether for business or pleasure. This method is now available on via the internet. Because every student is different we design an exclusive program according to your needs, skills and ability - we move at your pace to fulfill your objectives.
How it works
Our audio-lingual lesson using Skype or your favorite VoIp software usually begins with a dialog which contains the grammar and vocabulary to be focused on in the lesson. The students mimic the dialog and eventually memorize it. After the dialog comes pattern drills, in which the grammatical structure introduced in the dialog is reinforced, with these drills focusing on simple repetition, substitution, transformation, and translation.
The teacher uses examples of language and daily life in order to teach grammar. Teachers interact with the students a lot, asking them questions about relevant topics and trying to use the grammatical structure of the day in the conversation. Accuracy is sought and errors are corrected. In few words, we use the same technique as in our one-on-one lessons in Antigua Guatemala without the effort of leaving your house or office and with no more expenses than the lesson themselves. Your lessons are organized to develop the four communicative skills:
Listening and speaking
Teacher and student interact by listening and speaking using the headset. This way of communication is an essential skill to understand any conversation in the daily life.
Reading and writing
Every VoIp software includes a text chat as complement of communication. Using this text based chat you will read and write words, sentences and everything you need if you cannot with your voice.
In order to start your lessons you have to:
Request for your first-contact session to define your interests and level (no-cost involved)
Schedule your private lessons via email or using our special contact form
Install and configure your desired VoIp software
Connect (sign in) into your VoIp software and receive the teacher's call
What you need
Your spanish lessons at the comfort of your home, office or everywhere are ready if you have this:
Computer / Laptop
It is recommended to ensure comfort during your class. In general we recommend a computer with Pentium III processor or higher and 512MB RAM as minimum.
Headset
A headset is a headphone combined with a microphone. Headsets provide the equivalent functionality of a telephone handset with hands-free operation.
Webcam
Only if you wish to see your teacher. We recommend to use exclusively the audio because video can distract you from the oral comunicacion.

We recomend Skype (last version) or Google Talk
