This has probably been one of our largest investments in terms of time and money but we feel that it is money well spent.
The Malaca Instituto textbooks are the practical definition of our teaching philosophy and are used on most of our courses. As we have different courses with differing objectives we also need textbooks and teaching materials of different types. We currently have textbooks or materials for the following:
- General Spanish
- Master Class: a series of 4 textbooks for our 50s+ students
- Summer Course: a series of 4 textbooks for our young adults
- Dimelo: course materials for developing oral fluency
- Diplomats: course materials for Diplomatic Spanish
- Spanish for Business: course materials for business executives
- Primary and secondary teachers: specialist materials for teaching Spanish to primary and secondary school students
We believe this to be a unique range of course books created by a single private School of Spanish.
In addition, the Multi-media Study Centre has a range of self-access materials created by our teachers: worksheets, CDs, audio tapes, gap fill excercises etc. This enables each student to choose the area of language or culture they wish to improve or learn about and the medium in which to do it.
All the teaching materials are in a state of constant revision as our teaching approach continues to evolve and develop. This work is the responsibility of our Research and Development Department and adds a stimulating extra dimension to the work of our most experienced teachers. |
