Intro Series Course Description: 

Intro I will take students through conversation basics that cover all the vocabulary necessary to breeze through what we like to call “Cocktail Mixer” talk. Be able to talk about your life and the lives of people you know and love – your job, your home life, your love life, your hobbies, preferences and routines. Tenses covered include the present, present progressive (for Spanish) and simple future

Intro II will add oodles of vocabulary to the grammar scaffold built in Intro I and will continue onto the use of the past tenses.

Intro III will refine the use of all the major tenses and move onto any additional tenses pertinent to the target language, such as the subjunctive and conditional. It will also round out the building of your essential conversation vocabulary for home, work, travel and play. Depending on the skill of the students, this class will expand into the use of multimedia, the discussion of current events and literature.

 

WEEKEND INTENSIVE WORKSHOP If you are opting for a weekend intensive, get ready to walk in on Friday a novice and out on Sunday sounding like someone who has been studying for years! Build your foundation with our Intro I & II content, delivered in high-speed language drive.  Sessions run Friday 6-8pm, Saturday 12-5pm and Sunday 12-5pm with one-hour breaks for lunch on both Sat and Sun. It’s an amazing experience!

Cost: $599 – 12 hours of instruction (materials included)


PRIVATE CLASSES If the group classes offered are not conducive to your schedule, we are happy to offer private one-on-one or semi-private (2 students) lessons. We will work with you to determine a suitable class schedule (provided we have both teacher and classroom availability), and with notice, we can be flexible for any scheduling changes you may required. Curriculum can also be tailored to your needs – is this for an upcoming vacation? Visit with the in-laws? Career development? We can cater to you!

Cost:   Private (60 minutes) - $85     Semi-Private (60 minutes) - $150


Options If You Must Miss A Class: 

No make-ups are included in a class-pack purchase. However, we do offer students two options:

1)  Pending class availability, students may attend a corresponding class on the schedule, preferably for your sake and for the sake of your classmates, to be completed before the next group class. This is due to the amount of information that is covered per class. Each class will contain some review of the previous class but it will likely not be enough for you to not feel lost and frustrated in class.

2) If this is not an option, you may also ,pending teacher availability, purchase a 30-minute private session at half price ($40)-- one per session – preferably to be completed before the next group class if at all possible, for the same reason as above.

*Note: Due to the tremendous rate of acceleration in QTalk adult classes can only be supported by attendance of all classes in succession. The success of the entire class depends on equal attendance by all students. If a student must miss more than 2 classes in a session, they can apply the balance on their account as a credit towards the purchase of another class pack. Please do all you can to be sure you can clear the 4 weeks of each session before enrolling – remember, this is a team effort!
