Schedule - Adult Classes

This class meets for 5 weeks: Aug. 16-Sept. 13. **Not eligible for discounts**

Have you ever wished you could better facilitate communication between the front-of-the-house and back-of-the-house at your restaurant? That you could discuss scheduling, sick day and time-off policies with non English-speaking employees? That you could better control the quality and consistency of plates coming out of the kitchen? That you could improve customer service? That you could network and share tips with other Chicago restaurant managers?

This course will be dedicated to helping managers to:

• Learn the Spanish necessary to discuss scheduling, restaurant policies and quality control
• Learn how to provide job feedback and training to improve safety and efficiency
• Learn to compliment employees, show appreciation and hold a basic conversation
• Develop a stronger understanding of cultural differences that often underlie tension and conflict in the workplace
• Understand changing demographics in the U.S. population and how it affects the restaurant industry

Class meets one a week for 2 hours for 5 weeks.

Multilingual Chicago's Spanish for Native/Heritage Speakers is an innovative program specifically designed to address the language needs of individuals who grew up in a Spanish-speaking household or community, but still need to refine their Spanish-speaking, grammar and writing abilities.

For those who grew up hearing and speaking Spanish around their homes, a standard Spanish Fundamentals class probably doesn't make a whole lot of sense given their familiarity with the language already. That's why our Spanish for Native/Heritage Speakers Program is great for those who understand Spanish yet may literally be at a loss for words when it comes to specific verb tenses, Spanish colloquialisms, Spanish in professional settings or simply writing a letter.

Whether you need to improve your Spanish for work related reasons, or if you just want to be able to better communicate with la abuelita, our Native/Heritage speakers courses can offer you an excellent path to improve your Spanish in a variety of settings.
