Our Method
The teachers at Instituto de Idiomas Lanín believe that the best way to acquire a second or foreign language is through a communicative approach, using multiple strategies and resources that allow us to meet the wide variety of needs and learning styles of our students.
 
                     
Our Communicative Approach

We focus primarily on helping the students achieve effective communication in the target language; i.e., Spanish grammar and vocabulary will be taught in context, by means of examples drawing on real-life situations and tasks. We will provide you with plenty of opportunities to interact with native speakers not only in everyday conversations but also in specially scheduled presentations or workshops (such as our Patagonian cooking hands-on workshop)

               
Multiple Strategies and Resources
Some Pictures
   

Because we are aware of the variety of learning styles our students may present, we make sure to include a variety of teaching strategies and resources in our courses. If you are a visual learner, for example, you will benefit greatly from our posters, visual aids, books, magazines and videos, while our Spanish cassettes and CDs will maximize learning for auditory learners.

               
Course Materials

All the necessary materials for your course are included in the course fee.

Classes

For you to experience the rich variety of our landscapes, we have arranged classes at two differente locations. In addition to Neuquén City, you will spend a week in San Martín de los Andes, a beautiful site in the Patagonian Andes.
In both palces you will receive 5 weekly classes, Mon-Fri, from 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM. And from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. To allow for personalized teaching, our policy limits the number of students in each course to up to 5 students.
