 New Skype Course

Mesoamerica Institute is holding online classes using Skype, a free internet phone service that works like Yahoo, and MSN Live Messengers. Students will have the opportunity to meet and talk online. Online students can exchange files with the instructor in real time and see our lessons at the same time when needed. This will be ideal and convenient for everybody in the greater bay area! At Mesoamerica we used skype software because its audio (voice/sound) quality is a lot better than others which make online learning more effective.

We offer private classes at $30 per hour, with the first class free. Sessions are organized in 10-week basis.


Note: To help determine your appropriate class level, refer to the following descriptions. If you are uncertain about your level, MESOAMERICA INSTITUTE offers a free test by appointment.


Beginning:
You have never studied Spanish. Fast Beginning students have a minimal understanding
of Spanish.


Advanced Beginning:

You have studied Spanish for one or two semesters or the equivalent, or have used basic
"survival" Spanish while traveling in Spanish speaking countries. You have a sense of
how Spanish works and know loose words and verbs. Classes start with the past tense.

Intermediate:
You are ready to move beyond the ''survival " to the colloquial and idiomatic Spanish.
Classes cover future and conditional tenses,the command forms and some of the
subjunctive tenses, thus building conversational fluency.

Advanced Intermediate:
You have already used Spanish in any kind of situation, but need to
refine and diversify your speaking skills. Classes cover the subjunctive tenses,
combinations of all tenses, pronunciation, vocabulary for colloquial Spanish, etc.

Advanced:
You are fluent in Spanish but want to use Spanish at a high colloquial and/or
technical level. The language is analyzed, idiomatic usage is deepened and bad language
habits are corrected.
