1-2 hours per week.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Foreign Language from Harding University
I am ACTFL tested as an Advanced-Mid Spanish speaker (although it is probably higher than that now because my testing was over 10 years ago). I have spent extensive time abroad and working with native Spanish speakers, translating and interpreting. I also have much experience evaluating language learner capabilities, both according to ACTFL (American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages) as well as the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages).
