Beginning Level Classes are intended for both
true beginners and those who know only a few words in the
language. The dynamic instructors
use Comfort Zone Learning™, our hands-on approach that follows the way you
learned your first language. It
begins with understanding—you’ll be
actively involved in learning the language!
No grammar drills. You’ll
learn to recognize a wide range of useful words and phrases before
you begin to speak—so when you’re ready, speaking will be so much easier! Of course, there’s plenty of review in each class to help
you remember what you learned last week. The Intermediate Level Classes are for those
who have already taken the Beginner Level, or who have previous knowledge of the
language. Participants should have a speaking vocabulary of
50-100 words, and a listening vocabulary of 300-400 words. These innovative classes will put you on the fast track to learning (or dusting off) your new language. We’ll build on your current level, and you’ll enjoy the active approach. Join us for a completely new way to learn a language! Classes are small so all can participate: min 6, max 14.

It's a lively, colorful paperback book with about 2000 words illustrated--and it comes with its own free-access website, where you may hear the words pronounced. A great way to practice your new language between classes! The book is for all levels of Spanish, French, Italian, and German classes.
