Courses for teachers of Spanish

These morning and afternoon/evening sessions last four weeks in some periods of the year. They consist of two kinds of lessons:
In the linguistic reflection lessons the teachers are offered the latest research in Spanish. You also work on some linguistic aspects -syntactic, pragmatic, sociolinguistic, phonetic, lexical, etc- hardly ever dealt with in the standard courses.
Part of the time is spent on working on methodological aspects and on organizing workshops where you can use our materials and the experience of our teachers so that you can develop your own activities.
