Thanks to attending the language school “CCNations, Escuela de Idiomas” I was able to pass the Ecuador citizenship written and interview exams, and will soon become a naturalized citizen. With their homework materials and instructional classes, my level of Spanish increased to where I could study, learn, and pass these essential subjects: the history of the tri-color Flag (“la bandera”); the Coat-of-Arms Shield (“el escudo”); the National Anthem (“himno nacional”); the important battles, persons and events for gaining Independence; and the primary Presidents of Ecuador.
This is one of the top language schools I have ever attended!

“My success in passing the test on my first attempt was primarily due to CCNations, their time, efforts and patience in guiding me towards success. I really couldn’t have done so well without them. For this reason, I highly recommend this school to anyone who needs help with Spanish in any capacity.”

Lymphatic Drainage Therapy(LDT), also known as Manual Lymphatic Drainage(MLD), is a form of massage therapy specifically targeting the lymphatic system to correct imbalances and promote optimal function. The technique involves light pressure explicitly applied in the direction of the lymph flow to stimulate increased lymphatic fluid movement throughout the whole body, specifically in dysfunctional areas.
Lymphatic Drainage Therapy is known for its ability to help move stagnant fluids from the body.
There are many causes of body fluid stagnation, both chronic and temporary, which Lymphatic Drainage Therapy can treat.
There are many other benefits to LDT. These include assistance in detoxing and regenerating tissues compromised by burns, injuries and surgery; stimulation of the immune system; treatment of chronic inflammations such as sinus and bronchitis; help with symptoms of chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and chronic pain; and the promotion of deep relaxation for the treatment of insomnia, anxiety, and stress.
Most post-surgical clients can expect to come once a week for 3-4 weeks and then every two weeks for another four weeks. If everything is healing as it should be eight weeks post-op, you should be finished with your treatments.
I recommend you book one appointment per week for three weeks. This will help determine when you might need to return for additional treatments.
The goal is always to spread the appointments further and further apart while still progressing in treating your condition.

Hola Amigos- recently I bought an Iphone- now I need to learn how to use it! I prefer one on one rather than online- is there anyone out there who would like to give me a tutorial? You can charge me for your time* THanks- Diane

I would start by doing just two things:
1. Listening &
2. Mimicking…
Let’s uncover this:
Listening> attentive perception (catch the words and predict the meanings according to your bank of auditory memory).
Mimicking> oral production (which means that you have to pay attention to how native speakers articulate words and syllables).
And then, reproduce and replicate sentences, play with the sentences, play with the rhythm.
December 7th -> just 8 days left to save the last spot with the same old 2023 price -> just 24 day left for 2024.
Grab (take) it or leave it.

Stress, food intolerance, a medical illness and GI conditions can inhibit the absorption of essential substances such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, selenium, vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, C, folic acid, Glutathione, or biotin.
Anyone can benefit from IV therapy, but some more likely candidates or conditions include athletes, adrenal fatigue/ insufficiency, common old, weak immune system, fatigue, hormone imbalance, low mood, digestive disorders, skin issues, heavy metal buildup, brain fog, upper respiratory tract infections and many more.
Zinc and selenium are two trace elements that are required for human health. Each of these minerals plays an essential role in the body, and insufficient levels can lead to a variety of health problems. In addition, zinc and selenium are required for healthy immune function, making these nutrients vital for keeping the body free of disease and common illnesses.
Selenium is an essential mineral that must be obtained through your diet.
Selenium regulates critical metabolic functions and is capable of fighting oxidative damage caused by free radicals. It can lower individual susceptibility to illness and is also indicated to support vital bodily functions.
BENEFITS :
Slows the progression of age-related skin and body concerns
Boosts immunity
Minimizes oxidative damage
IV Therapy is a way to get the nutrients you lack into the bloodstream. IVs are excellent at boosting energy, detoxifying your body, balancing your immune system, and reversing the aging process.
Cost of IV $60 + $5.00 transportation fee.

1. Listening &
2. Mimicking…
Language learners focus mostly on the writing and reading skills and focus 95% of the time on developing them, so they become expert readers and writers (so to speak).
But
How to listen? How to imitate?
To improve listening skills we need to develop auditory memory. Adults learn in a different way than children since we already have a native language framework.
>Beginner students, I will help you build a cemented second language framework (the foundation of mimicking).
>Intermediate students I will determine what is preventing you from making progress, is this a pronunciation problem? or a word connection problem?
>Advanced students, we will work on the rhythm (pitch and intonation) of the language, which doesn’t mean accent reduction but accent addition (change the rhythm in connected speech).
That’s what I will address on my Training the ear course for beginner, intermediate and advanced students in the coming January 2024.
Time flies (el tiempo vuela), just one spot left, if working your listening and speaking skills is one of your 2024 resolutions, I am (still) here to help.

The benefits of deep tissue massage include but are not limited to:
1) Reduce pain and muscle tension:

3) Suffering from insomnia:
A deep tissue massage. This treatment can reduce pain and tension and ease anxiety and stress for better sleep quality.
