Classes are Monday thru Friday.
Upon purchase of this package you will receive a placement test email that we use to determine your class time.
Our programs are structured in 2 hour sessions with classes every Monday to Friday. Students can build their program according to their goals based on this structure and take up to two of the 2 hour sessions per day.
At NSI we use a communicative teaching methodology, where the main goal is the improvement of the student´s communication skills, encouraging spontaneous and creative use of the language, using real communicative situations and activities that teach Spanish in the way we really use it.
