We are encouraged by the global Christian workers throughout the world who are building up thier neighbors, friends, and brothers and sisters in the love of Christ!

Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing. ~ 1 Thessalonians 5:11

Did you know that our second language acquisition courses equip cross-cultural workers to learn language for life and ministry?
Some of our previous students had this to say:
"We loved being able to do this class online because we were able to take it while we were living in our target language community...It has given us lots of tools and resources to move forward successfully in our language learning."

Send us a message to find out how we might be able to serve you!

One of our favorite principles in language learning is "learn a little, use it a lot." What do we mean by that? This means taking time to learn a little bit and then practice it a lot to solidify your learning, absorb what you need, and then have a firm foundation to move to the next thing. In language learning, we often want to move too fast, but when we build on concepts that we aren't fully familiar with, it can cause even less stable understanding!
Learn more about this concept and others in one of our Second Language Acquisition courses: https://www.wheaton.edu/academics/academic-centers/institute-for-cross-cultural-training/for-language-and-culture-learners/second-language-acquisition-courses/

Share this with a Spanish-speaking global worker!
