PARA FAMILIAS PREOCUPADAS POR EL APRENDIZAJE DE SUS HIJOS !
Vean en este video (y en forma muy graciosa al estilo Les Luthiers) la importancia de aprender inglés en forma comunicativa, y no solamente a través de estructuras gramaticales y el llenado de fotocopias. El uso de la lengua en contexto es primordial a la hora de resolver situaciones problemáticas.
En esto estamos trabajando sin descuidar la estructura o gramática en el aprendizaje del idioma.
Espero les guste!
