WHAT ARE SPANISH WORKSHOPS?
COMING SOON Spanish Workshops
No matter how hard we try to learn a foreign language, there are always concepts we just can’t seem to get a handle on. Cue OLSA’s Spanish Workshops. During these one-week highly intensive and interactive specialized courses, we dive deep into specific grammar, historical, and other concepts that directly improve our students comprehension and daily use of the Spanish language. See table below for class schedules!
Classes meet four days per week – Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at 1pm, 2pm, 3pm. Spanish Workshops have a duration of 50 minutes per class. Maximum class size is seven students with an average of about four.
It is important to pre-register for the Spanish Workshops in order to confirm your class availability. To register, contact the campus WhatsApp account.

A portion of every Spanish class tuition goes to The OLSA Foundation to help impoverished Colombians learn conversational English skills; to help them better compete in the job market.
UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE PURCHASING
PASSIVE LEARNING: The curriculums for the large majority of Spanish schools in the Medellin area are fill-in-the-blank / worksheet-driven. These exercises are similar to the DuoLingo approach to language learning, considered aprendizaje pasivo., and are good for vocabulary building and language theory (Spanish knowledge). These techniques develop reading and writing abilities, but are weak in listening and speaking/conversational skills.
ACTIVE LEARNING: OLSA students practice and learn Spanish through actually listening, processing and speaking Spanish with native Spanish-speaking teachers. The result is improved Spanish fluency (not just Spanish knowledge). This is what is needed if you would like to meet and speak with Colombians at events or on the street. This concept of learning Spanish through practice in-real-time is called aprendizaje activo and is the preferred method for language learning for those who wish to interact (not text) with native Spanish speakers.
