How can Online Spanish Classes Help in Your Child’s Sports Career?

Online Spanish Classes

World language credits are not only a curriculum requirement for a high school diploma, but they are also a necessity when applying for top universities and scholarships.  For student-athletes who must balance a rigorous training and competition schedule, NCAA accredited online tutoring and courses for credit are a requirement. With native speaking instructors and flexible scheduling, LanguageBird offers ideal online Spanish classes for a student-athlete looking to continue their athletic career at the university level.  

NCAA Accredited Online Spanish Classes

LanguageBird is approved by the NCAA to provide credit to students who complete its courses. Student-athletes who have full schedules due to their practices and competitions often don’t receive the one on one attention needed in order to excel. LanguageBird offers first-rate education with extraordinary flexibility with scheduling. Online Spanish classes make students stand out academically, and with this platform, students are also able to remain completely dedicated to their sport. With an NCAA accredited course, a student will be recognized by any division I or II universities.

Courses That Translate to Success

World languages have often been associated with success in other areas. Its common knowledge that being multilingual is a highly demanded skill in the workplace, but great athletes such as Kobe Bryant was bilingual. The Lakers superstar was fluent in Italian and would often give press conferences in Italian. Olympic Figure Skater, Polina Edmunds took online Spanish classes with LanguageBird, the courses allowed her to learn a valuable new skill while still competing at the highest level. Students who normally struggle in traditional world language classes have excelled in LanguageBird’s self-paced, one-on-one settings. The online faculty is dedicated to the success of their students. 

Roc Riggio, a nationally competitive high school baseball player loved his experience with LanguageBird.

“LanguageBird is the best!  My instructor Carlos made the class sessions fun and kept me on track giving me the confidence to complete my classes.  Taking both Spanish, I and II at my pace with one on one instruction was the key to my success.”

Jayme Riggio, Roc’s Father, has this to say about the program.

“Dr. Koven and the staff at Language Bird have been amazing.  My son is a high school age student-athlete who plays baseball for Team USA and travels both domestically and internationally year-round.  They have given him the one on one instruction he needed to master his foreign language and succeed. Their staff has bent over backward to meet my son’s travel and playing schedule.  In the standard classroom setting, my son was falling behind and getting lost. Thank you, LanguageBird.” 

Davis Dickinson is yet another nationally competitive athlete and former LanguageBird student.

LanguageBird offers online courses in Spanish, French, German, Italian, Hebrew, Russian, Arabic, Japanese, Mandarin, Korean, and American Sign Language. These NCAA accredited courses provide students with an extraordinary opportunity to expand their minds academically at their own pace and on their own schedule. Time and again, these courses have been proven to help athletes to continue their careers at a higher level. High school is a critical time in an athlete’s development. The advancement of skills both in the classroom and on the field, course, court, or ring is essential to recruitment, scholarship, and later even professional careers. In order to allow the most amount of time for training as well as for academic achievement courses need to be flexible around athletes’ schedules.
