METHODOLOGY, EXAMS AND CERTIFICATES

At Malaca Instituto we`ve always believed that immersion backed up by expert teaching is the most effective way to learn Spanish. We achieve our results through integrating our teaching methods with the life-enhancing experience of learning by exploring our culture.

Our exciting activities and excursions are not just a fun extra, they are an integral part of the learning journey. You will have the benefits of immersion by placing you in direct contact with the living language in a fun and exciting way.

By helping you discover the amazing attractions of our country, we provide a focus for practice, discussion and debate, as well as greater insight into a Spanish-speaking culture.

As we have a wide range of different courses with different objectives, our teaching style varies according to the type of course but whatever your ambitions, our immersive courses are designed to help you achieve your goals and enrich your life.

We use an eclectic, integrated method combining many aspects of the communicative approach with structured learning of grammar and syntax, this involves some elements of traditional teaching methods, as well as classroom activities such as language games, pair work and role-plays aimed at developing communicative fluency. Our students are encouraged to speak in Spanish from the very beginning.

Malaca Instituto has three separate but integrated departments responsible for the academic organisation of the school.

• Research and Development: this department is responsible for the creation of our in-house published textbooks and other supplementary materials which are all in a continual process of up-dating.

• Teaching Department: our Director of Studies, helped by a team of coordinators, plans and organises the day-to-day teaching schedule and the rotation of teachers which is one of the distinctive features of the school. Our teachers are lively experts whose role is to motivate and stimulate the participation of all their students.

• Teacher training: a team of teacher-trainers reports to the Director of Studies and is responsible for the in-house teacher training programme and teacher refresher courses.
We hold regular workshops and training sessions for our teachers to keep them up-to-date with the latest ideas and tendencies in the teaching of Spanish.
We also provide courses for non-native-speaker teachers of Spanish.

“I am a teacher and I love learning, I’ve taken part in many different courses in many different
subject areas and this was one of the best (if not the best) in which I have participated. The
methodology and the quality of the teaching are outstanding” Michelle Mossou. USA.

• Exams and certificates: at the end of each course level on our General Spanish course there is an Examination. We encourage all our General Course students to take these Exams as they are an excellent way to reinforce their knowledge and the Certificates of Linguistic Competence which are awarded, based on the results, provide an objective statement of the student’s level of Spanish.

EUROPEAN UNIVERSITY CREDITS

ERASMUS+ FUNDED COURSES AT MALACA INSTITUTO

Malaca Instituto OID: E10158004

Educational institutions in Europe, wether public or private, can apply for funding for courses and additional services at Malaca Instituto under Key Action 1, for their teachers and other staff and also for their student groups. There are certain restrictions but the following are all possible:

• Courses for Teachers and school staff.
• Mobilities for pupils and staff in school education.
• Mobilities for learners and staff in vocational education and training (VET).

COURSES FOR TEACHERS AND STAFF

All working teachers and some other key staff in schools and other teaching institutions in Europe can apply for Erasmus+ “mobilities” and take language courses at schools such as Malaca Instituto. Some courses are for teachers and staff with advanced Spanish, but other teachers or staff with less Spanish knowledge, including beginners, can also take part. We offer general language courses, methodology, cultural programmes, inspection visits…

The funds cover all aspects of the programme including flights, course, meals and accommodation.

If the funding is already approved to study in Spain, Malaca Instituto can probably provide a course that meets the stated objectives of your proposal and even if you had already chosen a different course and school, you can change this and study with us.

As a teacher you will want the best programmes available. Quality and not price should be your main concern. Make sure the school you choose has independent quality labels such as EAQUALS or IALC and at least the Instituto Cervantes.

Types of course eligible:

∙ Intensive Spanish courses at all levels.

∙ Advanced Spanish + methodology and/or School attachment.

∙ Spanish plus cultural activities: eg dance or cookery for teachers from these areas.

Typical funding justifications:

∙ Switch training: secondary schools with an increasing demand for Spanish can apply for their French teachers to take Spanish language courses.
∙ Non-native speaker language teachers: advanced Spanish courses combined with methodology lessons or teacher observations.

∙ Language courses for CLIL: teachers of other subjects in bi-lingual, International and IB schools needing to teach their subjects in Spanish.
∙ Dance Teachers: can combine Flamenco or Salsa classes with general Spanish - this gives them enhanced skills and cultural understanding to pass on to their students.
∙ Non-teaching staff: any staff involved in international projects, exchanges etc. or dealing with multi-cultural/lingual students can justify applying for language courses.

This is a fantastic opportunity for teachers and school staff involved in language teaching, international projects or any other activity involving languages to use Erasmus+ funding to gain new skills, refresh and deepen existing skills and gain the overall motivating and culturally enriching experience that is a course at a top language school.
