The Balingua® method consists in 4 boosters ("levels"): All the boosters work on the same structures, but the difficulty level increases with each booster.
Working on each booster takes at least 2 hours.
Each booster is sub-divided in units:
1. Prep course:
Booster 1 = 16 units
Booster 2 = 16 units
2. Power course:
Booster 3 = 10 units
Booster 4 = 6 units
Each unit is sub-divided in two phases:
1. The computational phase (questions – answers):
Objective: to acquire the syntactical constructions.
The learner listens and answers the question.
2. Consolidation phase:
Objective: to review and consolidate the structures learnt during the first phase.
The learner listens and repeats the sentence heard.
