2. Who Benefits from online Spanish classes?
For the absolute beginner online classes offer the perfect
introduction to the Spanish language. This is also a great option if
you intend to come and study with us in Quito, especially if you
would like to volunteer at the same time. This way you will be able
to jump right into your project as you continue to learn Spanish
Students of International Relations, Global Studies, Development,
etc, will especially appreciate Yanapuma’s commitment to
sustainable development through our own foundation
Professionals who need to learn Spanish but who do not have the
time to study abroad
3. • Medical and other health professionals, social/community
workers who are working with Hispanic populations
• Business people
• Educators from kindergarten to university level
• Government workers working with Hispanic populations
Students who need to learn Spanish as part of their studies
Those who simply want to learn a new language in a fun,
exciting way without leaving their own home
Retired persons who want to learn Spanish as an interesting
activity
4. How do online Spanish classes work?
What you will need:
A computer running Windows, Mac or Linux
A headset with earphones and microphone (preferred but not
essential). You can use the built in microphone and speakers of
your laptop, but sometimes they pick up a lot more external
noise than with a headset.
A video camera, either built-in or external (preferred but not
essential)
A Skype account (free!). Google Talk is another option, but we
have found that Skype is generally the most reliable service with
the best sound quality.
5. The Steps :
Register through the online system and confirm through your email.
The system will automatically give you one free credit for your trial
class.
Choose a day, time slot and teacher that suits your schedule.
Take the trial class and discuss your learning needs with your
teacher.
To continue taking classes, purchase the number of classes you
require through Paypal.
Book your classes with the teacher of your choice. You can book by
the week or you can book several weeks at once.
Be online when it is time for the class so that your teacher can
connect with you.
The classes are 50 minutes long, so that either you or your teacher
will have the opportunity to take a short break if the class is 2 hours
or longer.
