Speaking a foreign language is helpful when a traveler needs to ask, "Where is the nearest hospital?" or "What language am I speaking?" Improve international communication with today's Groupon to Creative Language Center. Choose between the following options:
- For $119, you get six weeks of Spanish language classes with one class per week (a $300 value).
- For $225, you get six weeks of Spanish language classes with two classes per week (a $575 value).
Trilled consonants and accented vowels glide off the tongues of native instructors as they teach the conversational arts in beginner and ongoing Spanish-language classes. Students can complete half of a language level in six two-hour classes held once a week, or double their course load to conquer a full level in the same amount of time. While ongoing classes are available for those with prior knowledge of the language, new students can learn basic conversational skills and the difference between a piñata and the neighbor's mailbox during beginner classes. Small class sizes of three–six allow for ample personal instruction and foster an informal atmosphere. A love of language cannot sustain itself without the occasional kiss of cultural appreciation, so teachers strive to promote a deeper understanding of the traditions, history, and public-indecency laws of their native countries in a range of class activities.
All students who register in a class receive a workbook for at-home practice at no additional cost, along with an optional CD ($30 each) for Beginning I and Beginning II levels. The Creative Language Center boasts a flexible class schedule, with group sessions held throughout the day on weekdays and in the morning to early afternoon so as not to interfere dinner dates with a sun-shunning owl.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Retirement
More and more people are retiring every year because of the fact that it's so boring to go to work and no one there ever listens to your ideas. Here are some things to keep in mind when exploring the postworking world:
Don't Go to Work: The hardest thing about retirement is remembering not to go to work. Stay at home and rest assured your former employer recently hired a computer wearing your favorite baseball cap to do your job brilliantly.
Explore New Hobbies: Retirees fill their newly opened schedules by taking on a host of hobbies, such as joining a professional paintball league, buying new shoes to replace old shoes, and joining an amateur paintball league.
Spend Time with Family: Retired people have time for things that those of us in the work force never have time for, such as attending their eldest child's ballet recital or learning their youngest child's last name.
Stay Active: If you're not careful, retirement can lead to a sedentary lifestyle. Stay active by replacing all of the chairs in your house with treadmills and never, ever sleeping.
