About COSI Spanish School

Methodology

Learning Spanish at COSI is exciting, efficient and very relaxed. COSI's methodology is based on the modern communicative approach emphasizing conversation; however, the school is flexible and recognizes each student's particular learning needs. Students will learn the language by using it in practical situations, facilitating their ability to think in Spanish. The classes are well organized and follow daily lesson plans. All teachers plan their day's classes in advance, in order to incorporate each student's particular needs.

Books and Materials
COSI has developed its own grammar books, workbooks and teaching materials to reinforce what is being taught in the classroom. The books and materials to be used in class are included in the tuition.

Class size
Classes normally consist of two or three students. It is rare that a class size reaches the maximum of six students. In the event that there is no group at the student's same level, we provide private tutoring for 3 hours per day for the same price as the group program.

Learning Levels
COSI's teachers are experts at teaching Spanish to students who range from beginners to those with "near native" competence.

Class duration
A class is equivalent to 55 minutes.

Starting Dates
Spanish lessons start every Monday all year-round. The homestay can start any day. In special cases, if it is not possible to start on a Monday, students can start later in the week.

Length of stay
Students can attend classes for as long as they wish; although, the minimum is one week. For students who are participating for only one week it is recommended taking private tutoring which will let the teacher give them more personalized attention during their brief stay with COSI.

National Holidays
The school is open all year round except for January 1st, Good Thursday and Good Friday during Easter, May 1st, and December 25th. Classes are made up for the days in which the school is closed.

A word about the students
COSI's students come from all over the world, especially from the USA, Europe and Asia.
