Hailing from Argentina, Costa Rica, Cuba, and beyond, Interlingua’s team of native Spanish-speaking teachers helps pupils learn and retain language skills with an innovative teaching method that focuses on informal conversation and cultural education. Spanish Express for Beginners plunges neophytes into an intensive introductory course, giving green students a solid foundation for Interlingua’s Level 1 class and allowing fluent speakers to covertly stroke their egos. Alternatively, 40-hour sessions methodically build skills from Levels 1 to 5 to a secret sixth level that unlocks access to a warp zone, starting with basic vocabulary and grammatical structures and building to conversational idioms and fluency-enhancing lessons on Latin-American culture.

Any given class session might animate included course materials with popular songs, movies, dancing, guest speakers, and current events for a well-rounded picture of the language across many levels of discourse. Classes are limited to 10 students and take place in bright, intimate classrooms with circular seating to encourage conversation and facilitate the spontaneous formation of past-participle appreciation societies.
