IIAL presents a new and exciting way
to learning languages with classes
French, Spanish, Italian, German, Portuguese,
Russian, Mandarin and Japenese.
These languages are taught through an engaging method of artistic
immersion which brings the language to life. Classes are focused on
either
dance, music, visual arts, and culinary arts.
At IIAL, our classes are engineered to be small- three students being
the minimum and eight being the maximum.
Following our method of artistic immersion,
our classes are interactive and fun and do not feature the traditional
textbook or manual.
Our teachers are all skilled and educated
native speakers who are committed to
their language and to their artistic trade. Their teaching methods
are innovative and are designed to keep the class motivated and excited.
As each group of people are different, the teachers respond to the
demands and curiosities of each class.
The music
geared language class is designed to focus on the phonetic aspect
of the language while learning basic conversation. The students are
exposed to both classical and folk music, and have fun with singing,
recitation, movement activities and tongue-twisters. Students learn
to play percussion instruments and feel the music of the culture they
are engaged in.
The visual art
geared language class is taught through the study of real art pieces
as well as through a hands-on art workshop. Students learn the chosen
language through an authentic experience of creating and self-expression.
The adult visual art classes will present a more academic approach
(such as art history) to the art while the childrens' classes will
feature a more "hands-on" method of learning.
The culinary
art geared language class teaches the language through the
student's participation in creating and tasting of authentic cuisine.
Language is taught through identification of food, verbalization of
recipes, and the description of various courses. Conversation is taught
over coffee and between learning recipes. This class features a fun
way to learn the language and savor the result of your studies.
The dance
geared language class teaches the language while also teaching authentic
dance techniques and the culture surrounding the dance and language.
Students will engage their minds and bodies as they learn dance from
a skilled dancer and native speaker. Additionally, the students will
learn relaxation techniques and basic conversation.
