Competency
The Premium World Languages Competency courses take a traditional approach to language learning by focusing on the four key language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Students are introduced to vocabulary themes, grammar concepts, sentence structure, and culture through explicit instruction and guided, self-paced learning.

Fluency
The Premium World Languages Fluency courses are based on world language immersion methodology. They apply language skills practiced through observation and intuition within a context, task-based activity, or real-life theme. Proficiency is developed through media-rich activities and videos. Authentic content allows students to negotiate pathways for meaning, express spontaneous thoughts, build metacognitive skills, and acquire a deeper understanding of other cultures. These courses are more intensive and provide a greater challenge to the student; however, the hard work and dedication required to succeed in Fluency courses will pay off as students will acquire a deeper understanding of the target language and be better prepared for real world language use.
