Building human connections using language as the bridge...
Testimonials
What sets us apart?
"After three classes, my supervisors were using Spanish with their line workers in their morning team huddles, and the Spanish speakers were asking for English classes!" Director Human Resources, Home Crest Cabinets, Goshen, IN. Fall 2007
- Ours is an integrated learning system, not just a class and not just software or workbooks! The Reality Language® system presents our own, research-proven language acquisition techniques for the classroom, interactive student materials, and a Train the Trainers model.
- We come to you - to teach a course for you, or to train your staff to teach our courses; it can all be done on your turf. We also collaborate to present in community colleges or other classrooms, if that's a better fit.
- When we say you'll come away with functional proficiency, we mean it! You will immediately - even after class 1 - be able to speak relevant, comprehensible 'bites' of Spanish (or English!) and pick out context-based vocabulary from native speakers.
- Participants genuinely feel the empowerment that comes with relevant context-based second language communication skills and internalized cultural understanding, which increase efficiency, collaboration and safety on the job.
- Credit - our Reality Language® courses can be taken for optional graduate, undergrad, or other Continuing Education Units
"I introduced myself in Spanish. I asked how she was feeling. She gave me a big hug of appreciation. It was the first time any health care provider had greeted her in her own language. Reality Spanish® has allowed me to extend basic kindness to my Spanish-speaking patients, which I find essential to good nursing." Janette Bowers, Nurse Practitioner, Cardio-Vascular Surgeons, Ft. Wayne, IN
