Is your child new to Spanish? Would he/she like to have exposure to it? Then this class is perfect for him/her!  
In this ongoing class, students will learn basic Spanish through a variety of engaging activities and will have fun interacting socially with the teacher and other students. The class will be held in a circle-time style, which is a structure that emphasizes fun, participation, and socialization. This class is designed for true beginners. This class is an A1 level based on the CEFR.

Every 2 weeks, we will focus on specific material. The first class will introduce the theme, and the second class will be for sharing and practice and a short story or a conversation with my puppet friends using the class material. This will give students the opportunity to take their time learning and practice the material. 

My classes are structured as follows:
•	Welcome 
•	Introduce yourself (your name and how are you) 
•	Material of the week/show and tell 
•	Goodbye!

*Class schedule and content is subject to change in order to accommodate students' needs. This program runs once a week for 15 weeks but the classes DO NOT build on each other, so if you miss a class, you can jump right back in! The topics will cycle back to the beginning when completed.

For each class, I carefully select props and realia, and my puppet friends join the class to make it more fun.

I use a variety of methods, such as communicative method, gamification, etc.

I am an energetic, friendly, and patient teacher. No prior knowledge is required. We will learn together!

My classes are limited to five students so that each one will have an equal opportunity to practice and receive timely correction. I am a native Spanish speaker and an ELE (Spanish as a Foreign Language) certified teacher.

My Puppet friends (Pancho, Beto, Lucía, and Moño) and I can't wait to hear your child speak Spanish and have fun!
