Focused Spanish For Ages 55+
Always wanted to learn Spanish? Thinking about living or retiring in a Spanish speaking country? Or do you simply want to give your brain the best mental exercise there is? Blink’s Focused Spanish is the most hands-on product that Blink offers. As older students learn differently, our experienced professors put in extra time for every class to make sure we are managing your learning as efficiently as possible for YOU. Different exercises, different methodology, and customized materials are part of our Focused Spanish process. If you like word games, puzzles, numbers and music than you will love learning Spanish. Language is learned like a code or like music and Blink’s algorithm-focused system makes it easier for you to understand and learn the language.
Is it harder to learn for older people? Yes, but that doesn’t mean we can’t teach you. It is proven that learning another language makes your brain stronger and can literally extend the life of your brain. Like all organs, our brains have the amazing ability to regenerate and become stronger and healthier with “exercise”. The actual process in the brain is different the older we are. Kids for example learn language exclusively in the left brain. For adults the process relies more and more on the right brain. For people 55+ the process begins almost exclusively in the right brain but can slowly stimulate and wake up our left brain language lobes. This is an amazing thing to experience as it is often accompanied with feelings of elevated mental sharpness, memories locked away in these parts of the brain, and other great benefits.
If you are ready to challenge yourself, make your brain stronger, and speak another language, Blink is ready to lead you through the process!
