Learning Spanish in Melbourne: Here’s Where it all Starts…
If you’re ready to learn Spanish in Melbourne, you’re a seasoned studier of Spanish, and you know what you want, you might want to advance to this part of the site. For those new to language learning or those who want to revise what it is that they want, please read on…
We’ve all heard of get-rich-quick schemes, fat loss programs and other fake things. Language learning can often be the same, that is, there are lots of one-dimensional as well as just plain gimmicky programs out there. Now, you will probably make some advances using these programs and gimmicks, but nothing lasts forever, and soon enough you’ll be scratching your head again. So what’s the answer?
No gimmicks…
There are definitely tried and tested ways of language learning that work, but they all involve a few things. Firstly, we need a systematic plan of attack. Forget one dimensional methods. Don’t look for ‘the listening method’ or ‘the reading method’, ‘the whatever method’ or anything along those lines. Look to cross-train with a holistic approach! We’ll do a combination of listening, speaking, reading and writing exercises, with each category branching off into a number of sub categories.
The second thing that we need is your dedication! Our classes are aimed solely at the student who wants to dispense with all the gimmicks and get down to work. Let’s forget ‘Learn Spanish While you Sleep’ or ‘Learn Spanish in 30 Days’. There are no fluent speakers of Spanish as a second language who have learnt Spanish with this kind of approach. So why do people use these gimmicks? Well, we all want returns and rewards with the minimum of effort, right?
To learn Spanish effectively, it’s crucial to engage in constant immersion and frequent exposure to reading, writing, and speaking. By consistently practicing these skills, you’ll gradually reach your desired level of fluency. It’s important to accept the reality that there are no shortcuts or quick fixes when it comes to language acquisition. Instead, it’s a gradual process that requires patience and dedication. This more realistic approach places the student at the centre of the learning process, as opposed to any number of flashy, empty promise-ridden programs. Learning is something which comes from within the individual. Sites like Wordreference and Quizlet have long been staples for the student prepared to dive in. We’ll show you how to use them effectively.
