In order to understand well and speak fluently, the habit of using the language slowly and inaccurately must be turned into fluent speech and superior comprehension.

                                                              The ATPAL Way to Fast Learning

The goal is to speak fluently and develop superior listening skills.

Through ATPAL exclusive techniques, what students learn during the course (essential grammar and vocabulary) is turned into superior speaking and listening skills by means of an accelerated, four-step conversion process.

                                 Dynamic Phonetics (Blending of sounds)

                       Improve comprehension - Talk as native speakers do

 

People who speak slowly can be easily understood because words are clearly articulated one at a time. However, when a language is spoken at a normal rate (this is the way native speakers talk) sounds become blurred, and even easy words may be hard to understand. 

With ATPAL techniques, participants get accustomed to using the target language as their own.

 From from the very first day of the course, students learn how to produce and understand the sounds of fluent speech. 

 

                         The Assertive Approach: Developing New Skills

 

Through an assertive approach students don't require large amounts of language "information" in order to understand and speak well. 

Using ATPAL techniques students soon become proficient in devising personal strategies and solutions in order to rapidly reach their goals:

1) Develop superior language skills, not the development of faulty communication habits.

2) Use the target language accurately, spontaneously and confidently from an early point. 

                                           What Is Being Assertive?

In short, it is to be proactive, persistent, and above all honest. It involves the following:

 

 

  • Clearly identify the goal(s).
    •  
  • Target weaknesses.
    •  
  • Take proactive measures to address difficulties.
    •  
  • Objectively assess progress based on frequently measured results.

 

 

With the assistance of professional instructors and through a positive, assertive approach participants get motivated to analyze their situation and determine the causes at the root of their difficulties. Using the assertive tools and problem-solving techniques provided by ATPAL, students soon devise personal solutions in order to rapidly achieve success.
