Tips
Learning Spanish or English (if you're a Spanish speaker) will allow you to write "excellent knowledge of (insert second language)" on your résumé.
Knowing a second language is essential for many jobs today. You'll be able to communicate with customers, employees, co-workers, vendors and your supervisor. Knowing another language will give you that something special that stands out on a résumé.
Additionally, all else being equal on resumes, knowing more than one language gives you an edge over monolingual applicants competing for the same job. You'll have an asset that employers are looking for.
Knowing Spanish or English also makes you indispensable at work and because of this, you may be able to command a greater salary. You will be the one who interprets for your co-workers, customers and supervisors. You'll be crucial to the successful daily operations at work. You'll have an asset the boss won't want to do without! This creates great job security for you!

"It is not the language but the speaker that we want to understand."
Anatole France
It's all about communication! We humans just want to understand each other. No matter what language we speak, the goal is always the same: communication. It seems that most language learning companies forget this simple premise.
The majority of companies out there, like Rosetta Stone and Berlitz have this silly idea that the general public wants to learn the entire language and all the boring grammar rules that go along with it. The truth is that less than 4% of the population enjoys learning a language in this way. The result is that most give up or don't even try.
It just seems so simple to teach people what they need to communicate and nothing more (unless they're part of the 4% mentioned above). If you agree, please help us spread the word that learning a language CAN be easy and fun!
KAMMS' programs don't bog people down with useless vocabulary or boring grammar. You learn what you need to communicate ~ and that's all!
Culture Connection
Two American guys are bungee-jumping one day. The first guy says to the second. "You know, we could make a lot of money running our own bungee-jumping service in Mexico." The second guy thinks this is a great idea, so the two pool their money and buy everything they'll need - a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, etc.
They travel to Mexico and begin to set up on the square. As they are constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble. Slowly, more and more people gather to watch them at work. The first guy jumps. He bounces at the end of the cord, but when he comes back up, the second guy notices that he has a few cuts and scratches.
Unfortunately, the second guy isn't able catch him, he falls again, bounces and comes back up again. This time, he is bruised and bleeding. Again, the second guy misses him.
He falls again and bounces back up. This time, he comes back pretty messed up - he's got a couple of broken bones and is almost unconscious. Luckily, the second guy finally catches him this time and says, "What happened? Was the cord too long?".
The first guy says, "No, the cord was fine, but what the heck is a 'piñata'?"
