Win A Week For Two In Valencia With ESL


Anyone looking for a place to work and play hard, should look no further than Valencia. Famous for its great year round weather and unspoilt coastline, there will be plenty here to keep the traveller busy. Typical mornings will be taken up with classes, where learners will brush up on theirr reading, writing and listening skills under the guidance of highly qualified language teachers. Class sizes are kept small to ensure maximum individual attention and are grouped according to ability, meaning everyone can work at a pace comfortable for them.

In the afternoons, students typically get out into the city and practice their newly acquired skills. There is a wealth of great architecture not to be missed, from Gothic to Roman, which sits seamlessly nestled side by side with some exciting modern designs. From the iconic opera house to the Valencia Cathedral, there is something around new around every corner. For those who are more of a shopper, the central market covers over 8000 square feet and sells a wealth of local produce from silk to cherries; pop in for a bargain or just sip a coffee and watch the bustle in one of the many street cafes.

The Spanish are famed for their late night socializing, and Valencians are no exception. Of an evening, learners and their new classmates will be spoilt for choice. Watching the sun set on the La Albufera lagoon is a popular choice, where students can also grab a wholesome plate of authentic Spanish paella before returning home to a comfortable modern apartment block. All for absolutely nothing! All hopeful winners have to do to enter is answer three simple questions about Valencia, head to http://www.esl.co.uk for more details.

The Language Workshop For Children Employs The Unique Thibaut Technique In Language Education

New York, NY, 12-Mar-2013 - The Language Workshop for Children and director/founder, Francois Thibaut, are pleased to announce NYC French classes that children can use to achieve a high level of conversational language proficiency. The classes make use of the unique and successful Thibaut Technique for language education. To outsiders observing such classes, they appear to be more like a play group than a class.

The Thibaut Technique is a different manner of language learning that is fun and exciting for youngsters. The sessions are fitted to the appropriate age group and learning capacity of the children. In addition to French language, students can learn Chinese, Italian or Spanish. The classes might include festive visual aids, vocabulary-building songs, action games, language immersion and music that is original.

The Language Workshop for Children has been offering classes to toddler, preschoolers and elementary school age children since 1973 using the unique methods developed by Francois Thibaut. In combination with the Professor Toto DVD series, these classes are well-recognized throughout the country for quality and effectiveness in language teaching.

According to Francois Thibaut, "My technique is a whole language approach that employs both the right and left hemispheres of the brain. The left brain handles meaning, vocabulary and grammar. The right side of the brain is important for processing voice melody and emotional meaning. The Thibaut Technique uses games to enhance emotion, visual aids for symbolizing vocabulary building and songs to reinforce grammatical patterns. These efforts enable children to quickly learn to speak a second language."

Each of the teachers are trained in the Thibaut Technique. There are language-rich songs that have been specifically written for the Language Workshop for Children. The songs are recorded by native speakers. These songs reinforce punctuation, grammar and vocabulary in a way that makes learning fun. Parents can choose from a number of formats. These include school break programs, education for babies, summer day camp, language immersion programs for preschoolers and toddler classes.

Learn more about NYC French classes youngsters can take by checking out the website at http://languageworkshopforchildren.com today. Members of the press and other persons who have questions about the techniques or course content are invited to contact the school at the location described below.
