Treatment of diversity

We know that each individual has their own learning style and that people have multiple abilities and intelligences. We put tasks at your fingertips to discover how they learn best and develop their talents fully.

Cooperative work is also a way to develop and share different strategies to achieve a common goal.

Oral and written mediation activities
  • Simultaneous interpreting, consecutive interpreting and informal interpreting.
    Exact translation, literary translation, abstract and paraphrase

All the activities proposed in the classroom are governed by three principles: variety, diversity and equality:

  • Variety so as not to fall into monotony and maintain the interest of the students
  • Diversity for each student can enhance their talent
  • Equality providing each and every one of them the same opportunities for participation
Language immersion context
