Spanish Classes
Fast learning - total immersion.
In 2 weeks you speak Spanish with the instructor Leandro.
Call me on 320 284 6739 / 373 1982 or
Email me leacard12@gmail.com
Hello my name is Leandro, I teach Spanish as a second language. I have four years of experience in teaching. I worked for two years in Costa Rica, in the schools "Wayra" and "EF International," and I also worked in Bogota. Currently I am teaching in Cali.
My teaching method is a “complete immersion” into the Spanish language. During the lesson you listen, speak and learn in Spanish only. The goal of this method is to enhance learning, so you can reach quick results. After two weeks with two to three hours a day, you will be able to speak basic Spanish.
The fee for one hour is 15,000 COP – that is about $ 7 to $ 8 US Dollars. For students, who take more than one week of classes I offer special prices.
I will provide the learning material and you do not have to spend time on the road, because I can give you the classes in the hostel/hotel.
I wait for you in the beautiful city of Cali where you will quickly improve your Spanish by talking to and with the friendly people, who live in our country.
Hola mi nombre es Leandro, soy profesor de español como segunda lengua, tengo cuatro años de experiencia, trabajé dos años en Costa Rica, en dos escuelas “Wayra” y “EF Internacional”, también he trabajado en Bogotá y, actualmente trabajo en Cali.
Uso un método de inmersión completo en el idioma Español, la idea es que escuches, hables y aprendas solamente usando el español. Mi objetivo con este método es intensificar el aprendizaje, de esta manera obtendrás mejores resultados, con un buen plan en dos semanas y con dos a tres horas diarias, tú podrás hablar español básico.
Las clases cuestan 15.000 COP pesos por hora, más o menos $7 a $8 dólares. Pero tengo mejores precios cuando los estudiantes toman más de una semana de clases.
Yo te daré material para trabajar y no tendrás que moverte del hostal porque yo te daré las clases en el hostal.
Los espero en nuestra hermosa ciudad donde aprenderás español y hablarás con la gente amable que tiene nuestro país.
Hallo, mein Name ist Leandro und ich unterrichte Spanisch als Zweitsprache. Nach 4-jähriger Berufserfahrung unterrichte ich nun in der Stadt Cali. Davor war ich für 2 Jahre in Costa Rica in den Schulen “Wayra” und “EF International”, sowie in Bogota tätig.
Meine Lehrmethode ist ein völliges “eintauchen” in die Spanische Sprache – im Unterricht wird nur Spansich gehört, gesprochen und gelernt. Mein Ziel ist dadurch ein schnelles Lernresultat zu erlangen – schon nach 2 Wochen mit 2-3 Stunden Unterricht am Tag ist es möglich Basiskenntnisse im Spanischen zu erlernen.
Eine Stunde Unterricht kostet 15,000 COP – das sind ungefähr 7-8 US $. Für Unterricht, über einer Woche biete Spezialpreise.
Das Lernmaterial stelle ich zur Verfügung. Außerdem komme ich ins Hotel oder Hostel zum Unterricht.
Ich erwarte euch in unserer schönen Stadt Cali, in der ihr viele Möglichkeiten haben werdet, eure Spanischkenntnisse anzuwenden…

"I spent three weeks taking Spanish Classes from Leandro. My knowledge in terms o verbs and vocabulary has greatly increased and I would highly recommend Leandro as a teacher." Robbie Dore
"I recommend Leandro as a teacher. He is very experienced and patient." Joe
"I have done two weeks o Spanish classes with Leandro. My knowledge and confidence has really increased over this time. I would definitely recommend Leandro if you want an enjoyable and personalised approach to learning Spanish" Mark Stargroom
