Lengualista is a Spanish teaching method where young learners come together to learn languages easily with music, games, and fun. Using music specifically written for learning Spanish and educational games created with Spanish content for young learners, we encourage children's natural intuition and curiosity to keep them engaged and interested while learning Spanish.
Our Spanish classes are:
- Easy: with visual cues and graphic content.
- Interactive: Constant games and activities to keep the students engaged.
- Fun: A variety of fun, different games designed specifically for young learners of the Spanish language every class to help the students learn while playing.
- Supported with additional activities: Additional, exciting activities help the students refresh what they learned in class while feeling great about what they are doing.
Many scientific studies in Neuroscience have demonstrated that learning becomes easy when accompanied by strong positive emotions and when students are paired with enjoyable experiences. This is our main goal when teaching Spanish for Children. Based on this, we decided to spice up our courses with fun all over in every lesson, from songs and games to fun exercises and tricks to keep their mind sharp while interacting and being entertained.
