The teachers at Siglo XXI Spanish Language Institute specialize in helping students converse in Spanish. We emphasize speaking the language right from the start in small classes with a maximum of six to a class. This can be difficult in large classes.

     In large classes, when students are required to speak, it's in the form of drills, not conversation. After taking such classes for years, they still can't express themselves in Spanish. Beginners need to understand the logic behind the structures and patterns they will be using, but if they want to be able to speak the language, the emphasis must be on conversation, not drills.
