DurationIn 2019 we were excited to announce the addition of a Spanish Literacy class to our core programming. This class teaches non-literate Spanish-speaking adults basic literacy and numeracy skills in their native language of Spanish. By learning these skills, our adult learners can confidently pursue other educational goals as well as increase their self-confidence in the workplace and daily lives.
In 1983, lay members of St. Luke Parish in River Forest, IL and sisters of the Sinsinawa Dominican Congregation established the House of Connections in the former convent of Blessed Sacrament Parish.
It served as a resource in the Lawndale community for adult education, social services, and legal assistance. For sixteen years, Connections served the community in these multiple ways, with adult education growing in significance as the chief need for the people in the area.
In 1999, the Board of Directors of Connections engaged in a strategic planning process. This process resulted in clarifying the main focus of the House of Connections.,
Adult literacy education. Supportive services and the involvement of the community were retained as essential elements of our educational goals. The purpose of Connections was defined in future terms as.
Educating adults for effective personal lives, productive employment, and positive contribution to the community.” A name change reflected the center’s clarified focus and history: The Learning Center/House of Connections.
We teach our classes with an immersion approach, meaning all classes are held in a “Spanish-only” environment with a native-Spanish speaking teacher. Even beginning students will be completely immersed in the Spanish language on the first day of class.
Our instructors are native speaking instructors with years of teaching experience and are passionate about teaching their language and cultures. Our goal is to make Spanish and other foreign languages fun, easy and as convenient as possible!
Although someone might know Spanish vocabulary, we recommend to start from zero if the person is not able put sentences together correctly.
Our curriculum is built to follow the Spanish Preschool and Elementary school Curriculum program for early learners and for children in bilingual families or schools and Spanish as a second language (ESL) for beginners of 8+ years and tweens that are just getting started.
The CALA approach to learning languages focuses on high-frequency vocabulary—the words, phrases, expressions, and grammar that you are most likely to encounter in day-to-day life. We go narrow-and-deep with this vocabulary.
