Methodology

Methodology

We know that the best way to learn a language is through total immersion. Unfortunately, one can’t always live in a Spanish-speaking country. With Speak Taco, you’ll learn Spanish using what you already know plus your five senses. Our methodology reinforces learning through what you normally do, like watching television, listening to music, cooking a recipe, enjoying games and other activities.



When I watch videos or movies with subtitles in Spanish, I’m working with two senses: sight and hearing. This way I can hear the pronunciation and I can also read what the actor says.


When I play online music or podcasts, I can learn the pronunciation of the words through my hearing. I enjoy listening to my favorite music in Spanish and practicing my listening skills.



When I study online with my teacher, each lesson sparks my creativity and strengthens my thinking skills in another language.



When I cook a Latin recipe, I learn the vocabulary and how to express processes. Besides tasting great food, this activates my senses of taste and smell. Of course, I enjoy putting what I learned into practice!



When I play board games with my teacher, it’s not passive; instead, she actively directs what I learn from it: I can learn mental exercises in coordination with my hands to develop new vocabulary and grammar. It's super fun!
