ONLINE LESSONS
THE FIVE STEPS TO PAULINO
With Professor Paulino Velasco
Learn to understand, speak, read and write Spanish correctly
and fluently
- Learn to speak Spanish conversationally with
spontaneity about any subject.
The objective of the first step is that my cyber students will
learn the ability to converse spontaneously with anyone that
speak Spanish. Many students are nervous to speak a new
language and take risks when not speaking perfectly. My goal
is to help students relax and increase their self-confidence in
speaking. Humor in our classes is part of the process because
helps the students to relax and enjoy themselves more in their
classes.
- Learn to understand and discuss what you read
in any Spanish newspaper or magazine.
Students will develop the ability to understand and discuss
contents of any Spanish speaking newspaper.
- Learn to understand and discuss what you read
in any Spanish technical or scientific article.
Cyber students will develop the ability to understand and
discuss articles in any magazine written in Spanish. The
themes of the articles will be chosen by the students.
- Study and discuss Latin American and Spanish
literature: Novels, short stories, essays, and fairy
tales.
In this level we will discuss literature, editorial, jokes, essay,
plays and short stories. The students will choose the subject
matter.
- Learn to write and compose creatively or
technically in Spanish: Poetry, short stories,
essays and technical/scientific work.
This step involves the students developing the ability to
analize literature in Spanish. The books studied and discussed
will be chosen by the students.
Online Spanish Lessons utilize the teaching methods of
immersion study. As such, lessons will be conducted in
Spanish. I offer instruction to beginners, intermediate and
advanced students.
Each session of Online Lessons it is possible to review the
homework sent in and returned corrected by email and a one
hour tutoring session live via Skype (live private 1:1 chat)
which can be in written or voice mode. You can also discuss
your own specific requests regarding lessons and we will work
out the fee for these arrangments. For instance, perhaps you
prefer just to by one hour blocks of online instant chat format.
This and other services can be arranged. Use your
imagination and your individual learning needs and we will
work together to determine an avenue of study best suited to
you.
The student can download Skype for free from www.Skype.
com. The first two lessons are offered free of charge and allow
the me to assess your current skill level and learning needs.
There is considerable room for individualizing your lesson
plan. Sessions may be purchased individually for $18 each
hour or in blocks of 10 for $15 each hour ($150). Lessons
may be configured at different pricing amounts for other
lesson options for your specific learning needs. I can also
provide instruction in other subjects (Mexican or Latin
literature, history, politics, and art, for example). For US and
International students, payments may be made by
Visa/MC/Discover or American Express credit or debit cards
OR by bank draft. In the US, payments are usually made by
check or money order.

SPANISH SCHOOL IN CUERNAVACA MÉXICO. SPANISH
CLASSES, COURSES, AND LIVE INTERNET ONLINE LESSONS.
MÉXICO INSTITUTO LINGUÍSTICO is located in Central Mexico in
colonial Cuernavaca, City of Eternal Spring. About one hour and
30 minutes South of the Mexico City airport and the three hours
driving to Acapulco. Paulino (Lino) Velasco has provided Spanish
language immersion instruction for over 30 years in Mexico, the
United States and in Sweden. He has taught students from all
over the world in some of the finest language immersion schools.
Now he has his own school in Cuernavaca, Mexico and instructs
individual and groups. He also teaches online Spanish classes
from 1 hour to many hours per week, flexible to the student´s
needs. He holds a Diplomat in Teaching Spanish as a Second
Language from Centro Bilingüe (Uninter) and Universidad
Autónoma del Estado de Morelos. His training and experience
inform the teaching method.
He has written three textbook to take students through the levels
of instruction. Paulino teaches in a flexible, eclectic method mixing
learning in a pleasant setting or context to improve useful
conversation languages quickly with and understanding of the
understanding structure of the language. This method allows for
the development of practical conversation languages that the
students use daily. There is less emphasis on repeated exercises
and more emphasis on daily use. Students can consult with their
instructor to place more emphasis on specific focus or learning
method. Many students contact him and nothing studies in high
school in the university for many classes. They know quite a bit,
but are not able to speak like they would like to. This allows the
student to speak more than in other classes that involve more
receptive languages instruction. The student is at encouraged to
speak about subjects that are of the interest and importance to
them. This helps them speak and progress quickly
The method integrates elements of language acquisition and the
Communicative Method while giving an underlaying structure of
the language.
Paulino believes that learning another language should be fun
and enjoyable and well as being practical for each student.

was interested in translating a book he had written into Spanish;
a university student wanting help with a Spanish literature course
he was taking; a psychotherapist who wanted to improve his
Spanish to pass a bilingual exam for a county mental health
department so that he could improve his linguistic competency to
