Description:
Learn Spanish in a country rich in ethnic, cultural and religious diversity. We have many different programs for you to choose from:
- Intensive Courses: This is a packed 4 hours per day, 5 days a-week course. That's 20 hours per week of 100% Spanish lessons in small groups (normally 2-3 students), exciting activities and guided visits.
- Semi-intensive Courses: intensive 3 hours of class per day, 5 days a-week in mini-groups (normally 2-3 students). That's the perfect course for you if you want to combine it with private tuition. Or if you just want to have an extra hour per day for exploring beautiful Costa Rica.
- Private Course: You want to get the most out of every minute? Then you should take a private course with one of our highly professional teachers. A private course includes 20 hours per week with your personal Spanish teacher, highly individualized classes and 100% attention to your needs.
- Survival Courses: Your time is limited to one or two weeks? Then this is the course you want to go for! Focused on extremely practical and everyday travel situations, this course makes you ready for day-to-day situations. You learn how to communicate in a bank, order in a restaurant, ask people for directions, get information at the tourist office, find food at a supermarket, understand basic conversations and study important vocabulary. This course concentrates on practical usage and is highly intensive as we set group classes to 1 or 2 students maximum.
- Spanish for Business: If you are a business student or professional and already possess a good level of Spanish we invite you to take this course! You will learn all vocabulary related to the world of business, marketing and finance in Spanish. Your vocabulary, fluidity and grammar skills will be enhanced and you have the possibility of learning about Latin American culture in relation to business. Logos has partnered with outstanding professionals in this field and offers you excellent lectures at good prices.
- Theological Spanish or Spanish with the Bible: If you are a priest, pastor, evangelist, or a simple Christian eager to broaden your vocabulary in topics related to God, the Bible, and/ or the Church, we invite you to take this course. It is a prerequisite to have a basic level of Spanish, since it is possible to combine it with the regular learning of the language. You will enjoy reading the Bible in Spanish and talking about this fascinating topic with the native speakers of Spanish. You could combine it with volunteer or missionary service in Christian associations or churches.
- Spanish Courses for Children: If You have children and are planning to come to Costa Rica, why don't let the children come with you. We invite you to enroll them in our special courses for children. We have a wide range of didactic material for children and activities in which your child will not only learn the Spanish Language, but he/she will also have a great time. For ages 5 to 12 years old.
- Golden Age Course: Are you retired and would like to learn Spanish for your trips? We have a very nice and fun course for you! Don't think even for one second that its too late to learn a language! We can demonstrate that you can learn Spanish and you can have a lot of fun while you do it. This course is a combination of class time with other activities focused on the learning of the language like visits to museums, theaters, parks, markets, etc., handicrafts, cooking, table games, visits to schools, orphanages, hospitals, day cares, etc. You will see how our methods and techniques of teaching will give the results you expect and the great time you will have goes beyond your expectations!
- Individual Classes per hour: Individual lessons will boost your skills! If you want to learn Spanish on a one-on-one basis, Logos offers you all it's features with your private teacher.
Highlights:
Centro de Idiomas Logos is a school that specializes in teaching the Spanish language. Our goal is to not only teach the language in an effective way but to make learning fun as well! Our classes are creative and dynamic - with varied activities and resources and very interactive.
Our language courses have a conversational focus although this isn't at the expense of covering the grammar, which is taught in a very practical way.
In our experience, we have found that our students look for a number of key characteristics in a language school:
* Quality Teachers: Who understand student's needs and learning goals and are highly experienced in teaching languages.
* Quality Courses: With a well thought out curriculum, backed by thorough course materials, that cater for all levels of language learning.
* Great Location that offers you a good environment for studying, cultural activities and sights, parties, dancing, lifestyle... and San Jose, Costa Rica, is THE place for all of that!
* Reliability and trustworthiness, holding the sales-promise and providing clean and modern classrooms.
* Flexibility: That allows scope for tailoring the classes to the particular circumstances of the students; and, the most important of all,
* FUN! The key ingredient in every class that reminds us why we wanted to learn in the first place!
At Logos, we offer individual classes (for people who want to learn at their own pace) and group courses for beginner, intermediate and advanced students. To give you personalized attention, classes have a maximum of 5 students, but the average is usually 2 or 3 students per class. Our courses allow students to attend class for as long as they wish with a minimum of one week. Classes start every Monday.
