Conversa Language School

Our mission at Conversa Language School is to empower and equip adult language learners with excellent language training, and to create a community of hope, by building relationships and teaching helpful content for everyday life.

To achieve this mission, Conversa Language School pursues the following goals: 

• to equip students with skills that will enable them to understand and communicate in a language other than their own;
• to develop listening, speaking, reading, writing and cultural skills in the target language;
• to increase awareness of students’ own culture and appreciate the culture(s) of others;
• to foster healthy relationships within a positive and fulfilling learning environment;
• to provide high quality language training at an affordable price. 

Values:

1. Quality - carefully planned curriculum + experienced instructors
2. Affordability - accessible to all + low price
3. Community - informal, welcome, small group class setting
4. Balance - language learning is challenging, but it will also be fun + engaging

Teaching Methodology: 

The Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) methodology in teaching English as a Second Language is student-centered and emphasizes the use of language for communication in real-life situations.

1. Immersion - taught in the target language - English!
2. Conversational - focused on helping students understand + speak the target language quickly
3. Student-Centered - students actively participate in every learning activity + the teacher facilitates
4. Personal - learners are encouraged to incorporate their personal experiences in order to learn content that is helpful for everyday life
