The Language Instructor
About
One of the main goals of The Language Instructor is to offer a diverse range of programs that gives people of all ages and backgrounds the opportunity to learn and explore the Spanish language and culture.
Benefits of Learning Another Language
There are many benefits to learning a second language. The American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages reports that learning a second language:
Has a positive effect on intellectual growth
Enriches and enhances mental development
Leaves students with more flexibility in thinking
Increases job opportunities in many careers where knowing another language is an asset.
When you work with us we distribute a percentage of our proceeds to the LMP Hispanic Heritage Scholarship. This scholarship creates more opportunities for high school students to continue with their language learning in college.
