Welcome to The Spanish Fluency Centre’s official page, where kids ages 8 through 12 are given the opportunity to join the FLUENT BEFORE GRADE 7 programme. While we meet the needs of all students in primary and high school, FLUENT BEFORE GRADE 7 is our core programme, which is already producing 9 and 10 year olds who can conduct unrehearsed conversations in fluent Spanish. After 1 year, these students also read chapter books (text only books) in past and future tenses and are able to talk about what they read in Spanish. Some students (who already speak fluently) will be participating this summer in a 4 week exchange programme in Central America.
The ultimate goal is for them is to be successful in a global examinations through which they can acquire proficiency certification at 6 levels starting from age 11 years. At level 6 they will speak with near native fluency. These certificates are accepted around the world at universities and business institutions.
The same skill building techniques that are used for the core programme are also implemented in programmes that we provide for other Spanish students, such as: students who are struggling, BJC & BGCSE students, college students.
The activities in all classes are engaging and dynamic, and reading and listening comprehension are the key focus skills. Speaking and writing opportunities are always provided, and come naturally as students master listening comprehension and reading. Specially selected fun songs, games, storytelling, reading, and team activity are the mean vehicles that engage students and lead them directly to fluency.
Children who pass through the Spanish Fluency Centre above all else develop listening comprehension, Spanish reading skills, and learn about Hispanic countries among other fundamental strengths.
Classes are held some weekdays and Saturdays. TSFC has existed since 1990 and has transformed the lives of many children locally in developing practical fluency skills.
We welcome you and your child to embrace the second language, and the Hispanic world!
