Q: What does Speak Our Language refer to?
A: We are a Foreign Language company who currently specializes in Spanish
instruction for adults and children. We will eventually add other
languages to our course offerings. The name Speak Our Language
means that our program teaches you how to actually speak the target
language. The use of “our” also has a double meaning: Our indicates
inclusion and a focus upon the community from a global perspective. Our also means the language of our company – a company steeped in
professionalism, grammatically correct language, a culture of diversity
that incorporates the Latino Community in Columbus as our classroom
without walls.
Q: Why is the company also referred to as S.O.L.?
A: The acronym for Speak Our Language is SOL which is a Spanish word for
“sun.” This word is powerful and positive – full of life and emits energy –
just like our teachers and programs! It is also a positive symbol in many
cultures around the world.
Q: Who are the teachers for S.O.L.?
A: All teachers are licensed professionals with 4 year degrees in Spanish
Education, Bilingual Education or a Master’s in Foreign Language
Education. All teachers must have near-native fluency at a minimum and
possess a current teaching license from the Department of Education to
teach in Ohio. Additionally all teachers have had background checks and
are currently employed in school districts in the Columbus area.
Q: Is the curriculum for the classes one that continues or are the
lessons just isolated and different for each session?
A: The unique quality of our company is that we do have a curriculum that
we have designed. Each class has a progression plan for you to continue
your
Q: So, will I actually be able to converse after just one class?
A: ¡Sí! We have a unique methodology and approach that really does get
you speaking even in the very first class. Your progression after that will
depend upon the amount you study outside of class as well as your class
attendance. If you do the homework and attend class – we guarantee
that you can carry a 15-20 minute conversation with a native Spanish-
speaker, completely in Spanish, after just 8 classes!
