Living in Europe is like living in a continent where countries are separated by just borders. Cross a border and hear a different language spoken and the locales consider it normal. But with everyone busy with work and sidelines, they would rather learn Spanish in the closest language-learning center in London.

 

But prior to signing up for the nearest center offering foreign language classes like Spanish classes in London , identify first which segment of the language is applicable for you.

 

– Academic Spanish

Otherwise known as the tutor-reliant Spanish language course for students, some language learning centers provide Spanish majors the guidance they needed that they may not be receiving in schools. Not to downplay the educational institution’s ability to teach Spanish, but some students learn faster with the help of tutors. Retaining everything they learned is the constant challenge that each educator is facing.

 

Regardless how these students plan to use the Spanish language they learned, some language-learning centers have a way of motivating them to learn more with the end in mind. There are careers ready to accept certified Spanish learners apart from the academe. Surely, most of these Spanish majors had an academic career in mind. The moment there is more than one career option available, it would get them taking their Spanish lessons seriously.

 

– Spanish for Business

There is conversational Spanish and there is Business Spanish. Multinational corporations in Spain or Latin America don’t have to learn English or Mandarin to expand operations. Spanish is the third most spoken language in the world. They end up opening satellite cities in non-Spanish speaking cities like London. Some of them hire locals that can speak Spanish while the rest would rather native Spanish-speakers that live in London too.

 

With the demand increasing by the day, eventually they relent into hiring more locals with an acceptable level of Spanish proficiency. What is the rest of young urban professionals left to do? Upgrade skills. They enroll into Spanish language-learning centers with Business Spanish as their primary course. It helps them upgrade their resumes for that job interview.

 

– Spanish for Certification

The most prominent certification you may have read in brochures is DELE otherwise known at the diploma that you need attach to your resumer before applying to jobs that required Spanish proficiency. While the exam is taken in satellite offices of Instituto Cervantes, other language-learning centers offer courses with DELE in mind. It’s like preparing for any licensure exam in any accredited school and taking the exam in only one accredited institution.

 

While most of the job vacancies are in Latin America, learning Spanish based on the dialect Castellano as it is spoken in Spain is still the sensible way to go in securing employment in a Spanish-speaking setting. Most job hunters investing in upgrading their skills would rather take the certified route in bagging a stable job. It’s a priceless investment worth sinking your teeth into.

 

So, thinking about getting into Spanish-speaking jobs? You might consider enrolling in one of the Spanish-learning centers in London itself to attain a level of proficiency that a native speaker can understand. Besides, the true test in identifying how fluent you have become is in finding out that a native Spanish speaker totally understands you. Have fun learning Spanish.

In the meanwhile until I go to London and can teach you perhaps in 2016 with Marco Polo the Musical, you can lear something with these Youtube videos I shot. just simple stuff.
