In this ongoing class, students will learn the 30-letter Spanish alphabet. We will learn each individual letter name and sound, then we will "chunk" a few letters at a time to learn the ABC song in Spanish. This class is for first time Spanish learners and will focus on the correct pronunciation of the alphabet using rhythm and syllables. 

I will also teach students several cognates, which are words that sound similar in two languages such as "elefante" or "familia". When possible, I use sound from Pixabay to enhance student learning.  

As a native Spanish speaker, I appreciate the similarities between English and Spanish and used them to help me learn English when I was in school.  The same can be true for your child, we can use their knowledge of English to help them learn Spanish. I look forward to meeting your child soon.
