COMMUNITY PARTNER INFORMATION:
Organization:
Conversa Language Services
Description:
Conversa Language Services provides language training in the national capital region in Spanish, French, English and Portuguese. Our clients include government departments, non-profit organizations and private companies, all of which have benefited from Conversa's professional approach to language instruction. "The Communicative Approach" is Conversa's method of choice. It is oriented to the use of spoken language, with a strong emphasis on grammatical skills. This combination helps students to speak a new language in the shortest possible time. This teaching method also combines thoughts and communicative body language in a way that eliminates thousands of hours of repetitive explanations, and endless translations. It is like taking a shortcut into the fast lane. A student at Conversa will get there sooner and without unnecessary complications. Our language instructors have undergone rigorous training in Conversa's unique and communicative approach. Only when they have mastered this teaching method are they then qualified to teach the Conversa way. From the moment students arrive for their class, they enoy a friendly environment and relaxed atmosphere that Conversa believes contributes to successful language training.
