LOS ANDES SPANISH SCHOOL

Los Andes Spanish School is a small school dedicated to teaching Spanish as a second language. As a beginner you can obtain a solid basic level of Spanish in two weeks. Practiced in and outside, our objective is that the learner may use real and functional language as a means to communicate through speaking and listening.Our main focus is to integrate you, the student, into the atmosphere and environment of the Spanish culture in Peru. We achieve this by placing you with a Peruvian guest family, by confronting you with actual and relevant forms of communication, and through excursions and cultural events. The effect of this method is that you will learn, in a relatively short time, how to use Spanish while living in and enjoying diverse experiences.Los Andes Spanish School has created a course that allows students to learn Spanish through total language immersion, offering to all whom have an interest, independent of age, background or nationality. You may just come for a vacation, to seek a unique way of spending time in Cusco, or to complement your professional studies. We are offering different and specialized Spanish Courses throughout the year and are ready to organize courses adjusted to your needs.Our Spanish School in Peru was created with the enthusiasm not only to teach Spanish, but to introduce students to Peruvian culture and customs.

OUR SPANISH SCHOOL PROGRAM

Our Spanish program is flexible enough to allow it to be tailored to each student’s needs and consists of six separate teaching levels–beginner through advanced –with students receiving one-on-one or group (maximum 4 students per class) instruction in specially designed classrooms. All of our instructors are native Peruvians highly qualified. Many “out of the classroom exercises” are included in the weekly program, with teachers frequently escorting students to a nearby spot (the post office, the grocery store, a restaurant, etc.) for the purpose of vocabulary building and learning situation-appropriate behaviors and language. During the morning sessions you will learn grammar as well as practice a variety of written, listening, reading, and oral skills. In the afternoon sessions, you will get the chance to practice your Spanish School with your teacher while visiting places such as: indigenous markets, museums, historic and tourist sights, shopping centers, restaurants with Peruvian and Latin-American cuisine, archeological ruins, and much more.We also provide students with the most up-to-date teaching materials available. For those students whom have previously studied Spanish we conduct an oral and written examination to assess their level of knowledge. This enables us to begin instruction at the appropriate level, as well as identify weaknesses. On a weekly basis this examination continues and we provide a personalized supervision of the learning progress.All students will receive a certificate after successful completion of their course.Please note that we must give priority in the mornings to those students studying for 4 or more hours per day. Tell us what you would like. We’ll work with you.Start date: You choose! You can start your course on whichever day and date is most convenient for you. We are open all year, including weekends and holidays.Placement tests and examsIn the first Spanish class the student’s current proficiency is evaluated, and based on these results, which helps us to determine your level of Spanish School (if you have some previous knowledge). Your teacher will also take you through a general oral revision of the initial topics. This revision, and the placement test, will enable us to start at the right level for you. You will take progress tests throughout the course (usually weekly). These help us to see if you are ready to progress. You will also take an exam at the end of each level to check if you are ready to move up to the next level. If we feel you are not ready, your teacher will spend more time with you on the areas which present particular problems. After this you should be able to move up a level without a problem.At the end of the course you will take a final exam to confirm the final level you have reached.
