PR Log (Press Release) –
Sep 25, 2009 – Teaching a foreign language for job-specific purposes is one of the newest developments in language instruction. Since the 1980’s, Command Spanish®, Inc. has been at the forefront in the field of occupational Spanish. The key elements of Command Spanish®’s success in the field are: Spanish for adults who need to speak to Spanish-speakers in the United States; the English-speaker needs enough Spanish to effectively and professionally accomplish the task at hand; the Spanish statements, questions and phrases are specific to the occupation of the learner; there is no grammar involved; and, no prior knowledge of Spanish is needed. “We teach people how to tell the time. We are not in the business of building clocks.”, says Dr. Sam L. Slick, president and C.E.O of Command Spanish® Inc. He uses this analogy to show how these courses differ from academic, more traditional Spanish lessons in which grammar, conjugating verbs, vocabulary lists, and several years of classes are the center of the instruction.
These principles have been taken a step further to offer Command Spanish® as online courses. A learner is not restricted to a set schedule or a location. CommandSpanishOnline.com courses are self-paced--one can begin and pause as time permits. One can study at work, at home, or at any place with high-speed Internet access. There is no commuting to the classroom. Depending on the course, study times vary between 12-20 hours. Furthermore, all courses receive continuing education units.
As if having the best of both worlds was not enough, Command Spanish® Online offers these courses at only $99, each. CommandSpanishOnline.com courses help doctors, physical therapists, nurses, bank tellers, and supervisors (to name a few) communicate with Spanish-speaking patients, clients, or workers at an affordable price. There are 19 job-specific online courses available. For a full list visit www.CommandSpanishOnline.com
