Language Tutoring:

their foreign language school work, providing reinforcement and review of pertinent material in any language!

Private Instruction:
Children interested in a more structured and intense program can enroll in a private program consisting of three levels or 120 classroom hours of instruction. In this program, students are taken through beginning, intermediate and advanced courses and will participate in excursions, telephone calls, personal interviews as part of this very intensive and practical language acquisition curriculum.
INSTITUTO PANAMERICANO has offered quality and comprehensive language instruction services to adults and children for
nearly twenty years. We offer an alternative approach to language “teaching” by fostering language
acquisition, rather than learning, and by utilizing a communicative approach. Students in the after school and in
school programs engage in learning music, songs, crafts, games and other skills and activities— ¡en
español!- (or other target language)- rather than focus on ‘learning the structure’ of the
language. As a result they will be acquiring skills and structures painlessly and while they are enjoying themselves!
Classes are structures so that the students change activities approximately every twenty minutes. These scheduled activities
include circletime with music, songs and a themed learning activity, story time, outdoor play, craft and written activity.
The written activity will usually be in the ARCO IRIS student workbook which each student will receives as part of their
enrollment. One hour into the class, students break for a snack, and then class
In School:
INSTITUTO has been offering in-school language teaching services since 1987. Schools at the elementary,
middle and high school levels subcontract INSTITUTO to provide foreign language classes as part of their regular
in-school curriculum complete with teachers, books, tests, classroom props, and grading as per the school’s
own grading policies. INSTITUTO teachers blend into the host school’s learning environment and quickly become
part of the academic program. Our teachers adhere to the school’s personnel policies and work under the
direct supervision of the school administration. They receive their pay through INSTITUTO PANAMERICANO, and should
the teacher not be able to work on a particular day, substitute teachers are the responsibility of the INSTITUTO.
INSTITUTO also provides the same service for child care centers and preschools. Teachers bring in their materials and
teach twenty five or thirty minute classes twice a week per class of students at the host school. They provide grades
and/or progress reports as required by the host school and are always available to make contact with parents, as may be
requested by the host school.
INSTITUTO PANAMERICANO has an array of instructional services for children, too! These include ongoing Saturday
Spanish classes throughout the year, summer and holiday language camps, language tutoring for students at all
school levels, and private classes.
