ABOUT OUR SCHOOL LINGUARTE

OUR HISTORY

The Linguarte school was created seven years ago with a very basic idea:

Change the traditional way of teaching languages and teach the language to use it in real life conversations.

And in real life, speaking a language is also a cultural experience.

With this philosophy in mind, we realized that we needed to create a method that taught through conversation and cultural contact. This is because traditional books and methods put the focus on writing practices and grammar. For this, we created our own textbook and practices to maximize the cultural and educational experience of our students. In our method, the textbook and the teacher complement each other to create the best conditions for studying and for quick results.

The success of our method and the satisfaction of our students prompted us to open our classroom and continue working to change the way languages are taught.

OUR MISSION

Linguarte seeks to teach you languages in the most simple and effective way. Teaching you to talk is our passion, not our work. We believe learning a language has to be a pleasant and fun experience.

OUR PILLARS

We guarantee you that you will learn because we give you authentic experiences based on three pillars:

Conversation

Our textbook teaches you how to speak in the real contexts you need to communicate

Personalized attention

You are unique and you learn in a unique way, therefore the method must adapt to you, not on the opposite way.

Motivation

Our staff has one objective: to create the best environment for you to speak as quickly as possible

OUR TEACHERS

Our teachers are highly qualified and share something very important: a big motivation and a strong desire to make you speak a lot and give you a cultural experience through the language.

“Learning a language is a cultural experience that can change our lives. And we all can learn a new language, without the limitation of age or time. We just need the right method that adapts to our goals and interests, this is the essence of Linguarte”.

LEO

He’s Leandro, Spanish teacher but he is Leo for everyone. He is an Argentinean who lived also many years in Spain. He loves sports and outdoors activities. He is a positive and very happy teacher constantly studying more to become a better teacher:

“I enjoy the contact with the students, also the idea that teaching adapts to every person to make lessons enjoyable so people can see Spanish as a fun, happy and useful language.”

“I am a teacher because I love learning every day and meeting people who want to discover the world. Are you up for this adventure?

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Nina ValováI had to learn Spanish because I needed it just for my exams. However, after the first class at Linguarte school I felt motivated and able to speak because of its simple method and after a few weeks, I could talk more than after two years learning with standard methods. Thanks to Linguarte, I now love Spanish and I want to speak it all the time. Try Linguarte and you will see the difference immediately
Kristina CvečkováIt’s summer and I can speak Spanish on holiday! I started only a while ago taking lessons at Linguarte using its effective teaching method, but can already feel the progress. And the best about it is that it’s fun. At Linguarte you don’t waste time by exercise filling. I really recommend you study with Linguarte
Patrícia DemovičováThe classes were very beneficial for me. The main method was the conversation, also complemented with other resources according to what I needed. We were talking about topics I chose or about the things happening in the world. The classes are made completely to fulfil the student's needs. The atmosphere was really friendly. Every time I had lessons I was leaving the classes happy and cleverer 🙂

OUR METHOD OF TEACHING SPANISH

HOW TO LEARN SPANISH WITH OUR METHOD

Grammar is a means to learning, not the goal.

Possibly all of us have had language courses that used a lot of grammar and endless written practice. However, this way of learning does not prepare us to have a conversation in Spanish in a real situation.

We don’t like this so we decided to fix it. Then, we created the Linguarte method under two principles:

The first considers that communication is the priority and grammar is a tool. We need to talk and use grammar, not focus on written grammar practices.

The second considers that, when communicating, we focus on specific tasks that we want to accomplish. And for this, if we want to learn well, we have to be able to talk about everyday situations close to our lives and needs.

The combination of both principles guarantees an improvement in learning and fluency to speak without forgetting the other skills necessary for the successful learning of a language (listening, writing and reading).

In addition, our method encourages active and cooperative participation of students in a highly motivated and relax environment where your time and effort will be rewarded when speaking Spanish.

OUR SPANISH TEACHING TEXTBOOK

HOW TO LEARN SPANISH WITH OUR TEXTBOOK

The book is a tool for conversation.

Linguarte’s textbooks are unique and were created to respond to the need to teach the language to communicate and use it in real contexts.

It is proven that to speak a language you do not need grammar exercises or a focus on writing. On the contrary, you need to communicate and repeat as much as possible.

For this, our textbooks teach you the words necessary to fulfil communication tasks. Each lesson is divided into small situations in different places that you practice in order to repeat them in a real scenario.

Each lesson in our textbook gives you a group of the most important words in each context (for example, at the restaurant, on the trip) and progressively gives you more elaborate structures. This is complemented by our active class where the teacher supports the conversation of each student in these structures so that you can quickly learn them.

Grammar and structures are learned by practicing and playing without the need for endless exercises.

The complete Linguarte textbook is divided into three parts, each containing lessons on current topics and covering vocabulary that native speakers use in real life.

OUR EVENTS

Learning a language is to speak and connect with other people and cultures.

For this reason, Linguarte has created activities where you can practice what you learn and you can also meet other people and experience cultural activities. For instance:

Classes in different places
Spanish city tour
Language Exchange
Cooking and dance classes
