what is cultural competency?


Cultural competency is the ability to understand, respect, and effectively interact with individuals and groups from diverse cultural backgrounds. At the heart of our approach lies the belief that true language proficiency goes hand in hand with cultural competence. We understand that language is not simply a tool for communication but a gateway to unraveling the richness and beauty of various cultures.

Language Meets Culture

Cultural competency is at the heart of our teaching philosophy. We believe that language learning should go hand in hand with understanding and appreciating the customs, history, artistic contributions, and beliefs of Spanish-speaking communities. As you delve into the different activities through the language, you also explore the diverse heritage of the Spanish-speaking world, gaining a profound appreciation for its beauty and complexity.

Geographical Awareness

Our approach focuses on delving into geography to enrich the language learning experience, enabling you to appreciate how natural elements, landscapes, and environments shape the traditions, lifestyles, and perspectives of various communities.
