INTENSIVE
LANGUAGE COURSES
|
|
|
| I
strongly believe
in the power of a
well-taught
intensive language
course. |
Something
happens when you
are in a skillful immersion
language program.
Your mind opens,
your motivation
keeps you going
and you are able
to pick up in a
few days what
could otherwise
take weeks
or even months.
So much can be
accomplished
without the
distractions of
daily routine.
Strong habits can
be created, old
patterns erased or
transformed;
inspiration is
generated, and
this new spark
will keep you
going later, as
you deepen and
solidify your
knowledge.
You learn the
language enjoyably as
you are guided
through the most
important
material.
|
| A
well-taught
language immersion
program lets you
rewire your
responses as you
learn all the
needed skills
efficiently and
quickly. It
is not enough to
be in an immersion
language program, the
course must be
skillfully taught.
The journey from
not-knowing to
fluency is one I
have made and
documented many
times: in my
own learning and
with hundreds of
students. I
have created an
explicit and
straight-forward
blueprint which
can be used by
anyone to learn a
language fast. |

Whether
you need French intensive
courses or one in Spanish,
English, Italian, Chinese, Hindi
or Punjabi I will work to bring
you quickly to a reasonable
fluency level.
An
old proverb asks: "How do you
eat an elephant ?" and
answers: "One bite at a
time." But what if
it's a small elephant and you're
really hungry?
