Language can be a big barrier for many professionals that does not know how to communicate with their Spanish clients. Spanish Waves is the bridge to the Latino consumer anywhere in the world. There are a few traditional ways to learn it: trying to teach yourself with very expensive softwares or participating in group with heavy grammar based classes from universities or academies. None of these options, will give you what you are looking for, which is to be able to handle a basic conversation on your area of industry in a few weeks.

There are some general numbers and you have probably seen -according to where you are physically located- between a 70 to a 25% of the population is Latina. In 2008, Hispanic consumer spending is expected to pass $1 trillion, according to the University of Georgia’s Selling Center for Economic Growth and is continuing growing.

For those companies or individuals that are trying to do business in Latin America, we strongly recommend to know ‘business vocabulary’ to be able to handle business conversations & negotiations. This will put you in advantage  over those who does not speak the language.

Some of you may have some general Spanish already but are in need of more practice or looking to be an expert in a particular area like real estate, for example. For you it may be easier because you know already why do you want to do it and you see using it for a long term professional purpose. Language is like a muscle if you do not exercise it daily or twice per week you will loose it. We know that does it take a lot of effort, time and money to obtain it and it is easy to loose it. but we will not let this happen. You want to be able to keep up  with what you have and take it to the next level. If you have made the decision, we congratulate.

After we meet, we will ask you for at least 3 months commitment and we will accomodate lesson times according to your busy schedule, something that our competitors can not offer to you. We can decide between long distance format over the phone, on-site lessons or a combination of both.

You can learn to ’speak’ Spanish today with our unique teaching techniques. We will teach you to speak the language by adapting the lessons and vocabulary to your daily professional needs. The lessons are based on profession, for example, a doctor has a different lesson than a lawyer and vice versa.
