Cervantes Institute to teach Spanish to Starbucks workers

Stacey — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 09:31:00 GMT

(To read in Spanish, click here)
Spain's Cervantes Institute will teach Spanish to some 100,000 Starbucks workers throughout the United States. By virtue of an agreement signed Tuesday 26 May of 2009, those 100,000 workers will be able to learn Spanish via the Institute's online Virtual Spanish Classroom (Aula Virtual de Español), or AVE.

The course will last one year and quarterly reports will be issued to evaluate how the students are progressing in learning the language, according to a press release revealed by the Cervantes Institute.

Starbucks will be able to follow the Spanish studies of its workers via AVE, which will be available on the intranet of the Seattle-based chain. Also in Seattle is the first Cervantes Classroom that the Institute opened in the United States (in Washington State), located at the University of Washington.

The Seattle Classroom will kick off the training program, which will start with a pilot course taught by professors from UW's Spanish department.

When the course ends, students will receive certification of their knowledge of Spanish with a Diploma of Spanish as a Foreign Language (known as DELE) awarded by the Cervantes Institute in the name of Spain's Ministry of Education.

Learn Spanish and dance Flamenco in Madrid and Granada

Stacey — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 14:10:00 GMT

Flamenco is a genuine Spanish art; to be more precise - a genuine Southern Spanish art.

Originating from Andalusia, flamenco is a passionate and seductive Spanish art form involving the guitar, song and dance. The interesting thing about flamenco is that its roots are a mystery. The general belief is that this art form was created before the Reconquest as the mix of Gypsy, Islamic, Sephardic and Andalusian cultures cohabited together in the south of Spain.

Our Spanish schools in Granada and Madrid provide you with a special course of:

20 hours a week of Intensive Spanish + 8 hours a week of Flamenco Dance
... with classes starting every Monday, year round!

UK students learn Spanish in Salamanca

Stacey — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 15:29:00 GMT

In March of 2008, 4 students of England's Lincoln Minster School had a week-long Spanish immersion experience in don Quijote Salamanca.

Frederick Bowen, Harriet Briggs, Ben Rainthorpe and Chloe Miller began their Salamanca adventure accompanied by their Lincoln Spanish teacher, Estrella Corral-Hardy. Mrs. Hardy informed us that the students were delighted with their stay and plan to return. The following essay was written by Frederick and it details their adventure. Read on!

SALAMANCA '08

At 3:30am on Sunday 30th March, a group of four AS Spanish Students along with our teacher, Mrs Estrella Corral-Hardy and her daughter, embarked on a week long excursion to the Spanish city of Salamanca. The long journey and very early morning start proved to be entirely worth it.

On arrival, we were welcomed by our host families, with whom we stayed in pairs for the duration of our stay. But we did not stay put for long! We were soon out and about the town lapping up the Spanish culture. We all found Salamanca itself to be a stunning city with beautiful architecture. The ancient university, intricately ornate cathedrals and of course the famous Plaza Mayor were simply breathtaking. We were made to feel very comfortable exploring the city because of the safe atmosphere and the high proportion of students to talk to – in Spanish, of course! Every night we went out for dinner, tasting all the local delicacies including black paella, many different types of chorizo, piglet meat (!) as well as the inevitable mountain of authentic Spanish tapas. One phrase we learned very quickly was “Estoy lleno” – I’m full! Experiencing the Spanish nightlife was perhaps where we had the most fun, especially the parties at the school and the Plaza Mayor. We really got an insight into the culture of young people in Spain, with fiestas where all the students dress up in old Mexican costumes and sing to the crowds while playing their guitars to celebrate the end of their degrees.

    After we had settled in, though, it was time to work! Every morning, we attended four hours of Spanish lessons at the Don Quijote language school in Salamanca. We all found these hours to be extremely beneficial. By being put in different sets according to our individual abilities, we were able to progress at a level that suited each of us. We all feel our skills in understanding and speaking the Spanish language have improved greatly because of these lessons – many thanks to Don Quijote and the brilliant teachers!

   As for the afternoons, we spent 2 hours every day undertaking a work experience office orientation in the don Quijote Central Promotions Office. We were able to benefit from this thanks to the team of staff who explained how the offices and the school function, not just in the Spanish centres, but also how they link up with the schools in Latin America. We had to have our wits about us, as not a word of English was spoken, again helping us a lot to improve our comprehension of Spanish native speakers.

   All in all, we each found the experience wholly enriching and would certainly recommend it to next year’s AS students. Many thanks to Mrs Hardy for putting so much time and effort into making it such a success!
