Strengths and Advantages

• The teaching strategies used by 'Grupo Editorial
  Norma Educativa' is challenging and fun. Students
  will learn Spanish using different skills. This
  means, just the same way a little child would
  learn his/her native language.
• As opposed to the traditional system, students
  will build vocabulary but they will also learn
  from the early stages of the learning process to
  gain confidence to talk and to have fun.
