LANACOS

LANACOS, corporate member of ALL, offers teachers suitable courses from January to November in France, Spain, Germany, Italy and Portugal. These courses are divided for two main target audiences; those teachers who have a real immediate need to improve their fluency and learn methodology; and those teachers who already have a high level of proficiency but would benefit from an update of materials and methods. After 10 years of advising teachers and students alike, this unique service has received many varied requests and it guarantees personal attention to each inquirer.

Marie-Claire MacDonald, for example, originally from France and now teaching in Scotland, found that going to Madrid in the holidays to improve on her rusty Spanish was enormously beneficial not only for her increased fluency and confidence but also for the incredible insight experienced teachers could give her regarding materials and methods.

In addition, the fact that she was living in the country and learning about the culture gave her so many welcome ideas for Spanish. In the end both Marie-Claire and her school benefited; the school now has one more Spanish teacher! The EU funding paid for course, activities, accommodation, subsistence as well as travel to and from the UK.

Contact Martin Pickett at LANACOS (tel 01732 462309 or languages@lanacos.com) with your individual requirements and you will receive free independent advice.
