Bells and whistles? Or effective methodology? Best in marketing? Or based on the best research on language acquisition? You choose! How many times have you heard something like this: “I took Spanish for two years, but I can’t speak a word?” How- and why- do so many students fail to achieve proficiency with ordinary methods? Why don’t more people excel in this area of study? After all, human beings seem to have no trouble picking up our first language!
Excelerate SPANISH works because it duplicates the conditions that foster language acquisition. Verbal utterances are clarified by English so there’s no room for ambiguity. Gestures and motions act as “concrete stimuli,” helping students to internalize the Spanish vocabulary and structures. All of this is embedded into meaningful contexts to make your experience fun (as it should be!) and to help your retention. Then, to help you to get plugged into many more outlets for continued access to resources and practice, there’s the Excelerate SPANISH page on facebook. Visit it often for links to videos, ebooks, news in Spanish, even resources to help you chat with native speakers.
So now you have it… a way to learn Spanish that feels natural, because it is. Tools to help you achieve your goals. Support that you can count on. And a full 90 Day, 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. Excelerate Spanish. Order today!
Caryn Hommel, homeschool mom and author, holds a degree in Spanish Language and Literature from North Carolina State University and taught Spanish in public schools for ten years. Her success with teaching Spanish using Total Physical Response (TPR) and Total Physical Response Storytelling (TPRS) motivated her to develop a unique DVD-led curriculum to help other homeschoolers to benefit from wonderful, brain-friendly approaches to foreign language instruction. She has also designed and implemented a summer school ESL curriculum, led educational tours of both Spain and Mexico for high school students, and presented to the Foreign Language Association of North Carolina and the Johnston County Second Language Network. She assists families in the homeschool community by offering private and co-op classes, conducting free seminars, and speaking at homeschool conventions. The Hommels have homeschooled since 2003 and have graduated two students. Caryn continues to teach her younger twochildren, and thinks that exploring life and learning as a family is the most fulfilling way to spend your days!
