How many times have you heard someone say that they aren't good at learning languages? Or that they took 2, 3 or even 4 years of language classes in high school or college and they can't even use it? Have you said these things? All of that class time, or most of it at least, was likely spent learning about the language, not actually acquiring it!
When we memorize vocabulary and complete grammar drills, we're learning about the language, not gaining the ability to use it for actual communication. If you want to communicate in a language, you need to practice communicating! At Las Lengüitas, we start communicating in the language from the first moment of the first class by using proven strategies to make the language comprehensible.

If you want to communicate in a language, you need to practice communicating! At Las Lengüitas, we start communicating in the language from the first moment of the first class by using proven strategies to make the language comprehensible.
At Las Lengüitas, we're experts in making language comprehensible through our expressions, actions, props & environment plus our class sizes are small enough that each student can move at their own pace while getting a lot of individualized attention as we go. While we speak entirely in Spanish throughout the class, students respond in many different ways that are appropriate for their current level including nodding, pointing, repeating, even using English (if a child answers a Spanish question appropriately using English, we know they understood the Spanish question).
Regardless of whether or not your teen has previous knowledge of Spanish, we have the perfect class to meet their needs.
