We have sent "Lino" many students over the years including a lawyer who studied 3 times a week for two hours a session; an author who was interested in translating a book he had written into Spanish; a university student wanting help with a Spanish literature course he was taking; a psychotherapist who wanted to improve his Spanish to pass a bingual exam for a county mental health department so that he could improve his linguistic competency to provide psychotherapy and case management in Spanish and many more each with their own specific learning needs. We take classes ourselves and look forward to many more enjoyable Sunday mornings with Lino!" ~Charley Hodson, Director,  AVENTURAS LANGUAGES (www.LanguageAmigos.com) "This is a very unusual offering since most language programs consist of a batch of cd’s or tapes or a computer program with the process of learning consisting of memorization and mimicking the sound of words and phrases. With this packet of lessons the student actually converses with the professor in Spanish thereby actually learning to use the language from the beginning of the first lesson. This type of lesson allows for very rapid learning to actually speak and understand the language changing the process from a sterile process of memorization to an exciting process of communication." ~Morris Ford, Student, 2005-2006 ADDITIONAL STUDENT COMMENTS ~COMING SOON: POD-CASTS WITH PROFESSOR PAULINO VELASCO! oOo THE FIVE STEPS TO SPANISH With Professor Paulino Velasco ~Learn to understand, speak, read and write Spanish correctly and fluently~ 1.- Learn to speak Spanish conversationally with spontaneity about any subject. 2.- Learn to understand and discuss what you read in any Spanish newspaper or magazine. 3.- Learn to understand and discuss what you read in any Spanish technical or scientific article. 4.- Study and discuss Latin American and Spanish literature: Novels, short stories, essays, and fairy tales. 5.- Learn to write and compose creatively or technically in Spanish: Poetry, short stories, essays and technical/scientific work.
