What is the difference between traditional foreign language classes and conversational language classes?
Traditional classes have an agenda that usually leads to an exam. There are usually credits involved and the expectation is that the participants will continue on to the next level. It is the burden of the teacher to get through a book, so the participants are ready for the next level book. Many times this class has more written assignments than oral activities. When there are oral activities they are prewritten dialogues that are usually related to school activities.
Conversational classes focus on conversational skills. The agenda includes skills and vocabulary which the participants use to form the questions and answers they need for a basic conversation. There is much opportunity to practice orally what is learned. Participants are expected, and supported, to write their own dialogues that are related to their life situations. Our conversational classes save time and money because the participants can start using what they learn right away!
