Immediate communication in Spanish is the goal of the course. The method stresses the development of speaking skills and listening comprehension through controlled oral practice. Vocabulary is related to the areas of activity of daily life. Grammar explanations are simple and practical, allowing the student to make immediate use of them in speaking. Rules are used actively: through exposure and practice, the correct forms begin to sound right to the student's ear.
Argentine Tango is becoming a rage again. In cities all over the world ordinary people are drawn to the mystery, the sweet melancholy, the sensual pleasure and social satisfaction it gives. Tango is not just a dance. It is Argentine soul music, music of the very soul of a very complex country.
