  • WHAT IS WORD PLAY'S SPANISH FOR PROFESSIONALS? More than ever before the key to success in business is effective communication with the public we serve. Yet, in this vast, changing world, as more and more Hispanic people become a vital part of our communities, it is becoming increasingly more difficult to understand and meet the needs of this growing segment of our customer base.

    Our company offers a unique process of bringing your people (who speak little or no Spanish) and your customers (who speak little or no English) together into a community of understanding and trust. This is not Spanish class as usual. It is neither what you might remember from high school nor what is taught in college. There is neither conjugation of verbs nor endless memorization of words or phrases that have nothing to do with the immediate interaction between your company and its customers.

    Our non-traditional programs are tailored specifically for your business. We help your people communicate in Spanish in an unusually short period of time. We focus on words and phrases and concepts that are relevant to the everyday operations of your business in the language of your business or industry.

    Here is how it works. After a study of the communication needs between your people and your customers, we design a program tailored specifically for your company. Generally, it is a five-week program, with sessions meeting for two hours each week. Yet the schedule is flexible and you are in control. The number and length of a session is whatever works best for you and your people. And our teachers come to your workplace so that day-to-day operations are minimally affected. Our teachers are not only native speakers but are experienced in the areas of finance and business.
