This level is for students who feel comfortable actively participating using the present, past, and future tenses in both the simple and compound tenses.
Sound and dialogue are the basis of our methodology. Because nouns differ from one Latin American country to another, the emphasis is placed on the verb—using sound and dialogue to get students to communicate and converse more quickly than they ever thought possible.
Classes are divided into two parts. The first half gives students a structured lesson in verb conjugation and grammar, while the second half is dedicated to practicing and developing conversational ability, through acoustics and dialogue. This unique methodology, along with a rich curriculum that includes music, poetry, and art, gives students exposure to a wide variety of words, accents, and useful idiomatic phrases from throughout The Americas.
There is a $20 materials fee for all new students, which includes a workbook and mp3s. In order to confirm class enrollment, we strongly encourage early registration. El Taller reserves the right to make amendments to the class schedule at any time, including cancelling a class section if there is not a minimum of 4 students enrolled, and creating a section if there are at least 4 students for a level.
