CLASES DE ESPAÑOL NIVEL AVANZADO

Descripción del curso

• Ya sabemos que…
• siempre encuentras los mismos materiales elementales en internet y estás cansad@ de esto
• conoces todas las explicaciones contenidas en los libros de texto, todas las reglas gramaticales
• todas las diferencias entre POR y PARA, también el subjuntivo…
• hace tanto tiempo que no recibes una pregunta incomprensible
• no puedes encontrar gente del mismo nivel
• aunque tengas el nivel B2 o C1, sigues con esa sensación de que, a la hora de comunicarte, no llegas a
• desenvolverte como te gustaría, verdad?
• perdiste el interés, la emoción, te aburres, nada es nuevo

PERO

• te das cuenta de que todavía cometes errores siguiendo las reglas
• sí, hablas con fluidez, pero te gustaría reducir tu acento nativo y hablar como los españoles
• además, se te escapan un montón de detalles y siempre tienes dudas para las que no encuentras respuestas convincentes

Y no sabes POR QUÉ!

Tienes razón, hay que alcanzar la verdadera fluidez y la soltura, ¡sabiendo tanto como los nativos españoles! Y hay que interactuar con varios grupos de gente con nivel de español muy avanzado.

Con todos los años de experiencia como profesor he podido observar de cerca cómo funciona el cerebro humano durante el aprendizaje de un segundo idioma y te digo que es imprescindible trabajar la parte del cerebro que usamos para hacer memoria y recordar.

Te voy a enseñar todas las estrategias positivas de aprendizaje al nivel avanzado y qué tienes que hacer para no fallar de nuevo cuando hables con nativos españoles.

APRENDER: es la capacidad pasiva de adquirir conocimiento a través del estudio

APREHENDER: actitud activa de coger el conocimiento para sí, vivirlo en plenitud

Hasta ahora, ¿has aprendido español o has aprehendido español?

Cognitive Spanish for Seniors. A popular proverb suggests that older individuals may struggle to acquire new skills, including learning new languages. However, recent research on Neuroplasticity from Edinburgh University reveals that bilingualism can significantly enhance cognitive abilities in individuals aged 50 and above. Lead researcher Thomas Bak highlights that acquiring a second language later in life can promote greater brain flexibility and efficiency. Engaging in regular mental exercises, such as learning a new word daily, reinforces focus and memory retention.

Similar to physical exercise benefiting the body, cognitive learning stimulates the brain, improving its capacity to process information. Moreover, switching between languages can mitigate cognitive decline and potentially delay the onset of conditions like memory loss, dementia, Alzheimer’s, anxiety, and depression. Therefore, embracing the adage of ‘teaching an old dog new tricks’ proves beneficial for maintaining overall health and well-being. Although there’s no cure for diseases like Alzheimer’s, it’s crucial to offer better tools and services to support seniors in managing cognitive decline and provide assistance to caregivers. This rationale inspired the creation of Cognitive Spanish for Seniors, a programme tailored for individuals aged 50 and above, though open to learners of all ages sharing similar objectives.

Benefits of the programme include keeping the brain healthy, fostering new social connections, maintaining an active social life to alleviate feelings of loneliness, boosting self-esteem, and experiencing mood elevation through the release of endorphins. Participants can also enjoy the fun and happiness of learning while practicing Spanish with new friends or exchanging letters with loved ones in Spanish, reminiscent of times gone by. Additionally, face-to-face lessons are available in Gran Canaria upon request. At Mixitup Academy, our mission is to enrich the lives of seniors by providing inspiring learning experiences that encourage them to embrace life to the fullest, echoing the sentiment that ‘Age is a state of mind‘.
