ABA
– American & english academy, with
a 30-year experience in both attendance and multimedia
English teaching, has developed within the last 6 years,
a method which turns out to be the ultimate solution in
learning to speak English.
The method responds in logical manner, to great technology
developments, through which the PC, discovered by IBM
in 1980, invaded homes in the 90’s, and started
including, among other features, and from the year 2000,
CD-ROM units and sound applications, making it a true
multimedia piece of equipment.
In 1997, ABA managed to gather quite
important financial resources, and a multinational team
of European and American experts. These experts made use
of these technology developments for six years, to create
a method with excellent pedagogical contents, yet entertaining
at the same time.
This method manages to teach English with an excellent
pronunciation and intonation. It teaches how to write
English with no spelling mistakes, allowing the ear to
practice in a continuous manner, to understand English
and turn the student’s ear into an “English
ear”.
This software method is called The
Academy At Home, and it is so entertaining, it
steals hours of TV from those addicted to TV series and
hours of navigation from the web addicts. It is and intelligent,
interesting, nice and entertaining software,
conquering an ambitious goal: Speaking English
rapidly and very easily. The
Academy At Home is the ultimate solution to English
speaking. Its introduction at the beginning of this century
has been indeed the logical response to technology developments.
In the last century, two were the traditional language-learning
systems: the private teacher, and the classroom teacher
with groups of four, to ten students.
During the second half of the century two other methods
of individual nature and different from the private
teacher method, made their appearance:
- The Audio and audiovisual courses, to be studied
at home either with or without the support of a distance-learning
teacher; and,
- The Academies fitted with computers, starting from
1985, and thanks to the discovery of the Personal
Computer by IBM, where users would go, to study in
booths and take advantage of learning with PCs.
Both desktop computers and laptops are present in most
of the households, in our current society, and in many
cases, there is even more than one PC at home. This
fact renders both preceding methods obsolete, due to
the following reasons:
The Academy at Home, via the PC, constantly
corrects the student, both in the writing and the pronunciation
skills, rendering thus, the distance teacher unnecessary.
Academies make no sense anymore; as it is more practical
and inexpensive to get the academy and take it home
for good, by purchasing The Academy at Home Software.
The Academy at Home is not a service
with a due date, like those courses attended at academies
with booths. It is a very complete product that includes
study and review material,
which will stay the customer’s property, allowing
him/her to be able to study English with it, at all
times. We are talking about purchasing a product, not
a service. A product with a fifteen-year guarantee.
The Academy At Home is offered under
very special financing conditions, so the method can
be acquired by everyone at no effort. The course has
been developed by ABA, following the
European Council’s sponsoring for reducing the
community’s costs of operation, regarding communication.
The unique language is taking over, and The
Academy at Home is the solution for a Fast,
Possible and Easy English.
