Exploring the exciting journey of learning a foreign language, we come across the enigmatic term: 'native'. But what treasure is hidden behind this word?
Being a native speaker implies having been born in the country where the language we are studying flourishes as a mother tongue. However, Does it automatically make us the scholars of the language? Let's visualize this concept in the context of Colombia. Although we share Spanish as a language, not all of us are automatically masters of this beautiful language.
The art of teaching foreign languages, regardless of nationality, requires solid training. Educators must be virtuoso not only in language proficiency, but also in pedagogical arts. Their training gives them the ability to skillfully impart knowledge, adapting to diverse rhythms and learning styles, unraveling complexities and respecting multiple intelligences. A teacher carries a colossal task, molding minds and sharing his heritage, whose influence can shape the path of learning for others, whether for better or worse.
En OnParle, our teachers are not only academic graduates of Modern Languages or Philology in languages, but also guides who value and accompany students at every step of their language learning journey, We immerse ourselves fully in the learning journey of our students, accompanying them step by step towards their goals and successes. With highly competent educators at our side, we can achieve our goals more easily that if we approach the language with uncertainty and pedagogical gaps. If you find yourself with questions on your mind, here are the answers you are looking for. And if your concerns are different, don't hesitate to share them.
