Class Experience

Beginner Level

Join me for this one-session class and learn the Spanish alphabet! Using the book, "Chica Chica Bum Bum," the Spanish version of the book Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, we will learn the names and pronunciations of the letters of the alphabet, including variations of some letter sounds depending on region spoken. 

Students ages 4-9 will learn using literature, songs, and interactive methods.  There  will be opportunities to participate and speak in the microphone to practice what is being learned. 

Come and get to know the teacher and other classes in store for the upcoming year. There will be a short introduction about the teacher and my background at the beginning of class, and a time to ask questions at the end of the class.

Profile

Teacher expertise and credentials

New Mexico Teaching Certificate

Master's Degree in Education from Concordia University - Portland

I am a longtime homeschooler (over 16 years and counting!), and an experienced, licensed teacher with endorsements in bilingual education and TESOL. I have also earned a Master of Education in Curriculum & Instruction in Early Childhood Education (birth through Grade 3). 

I have been speaking Spanish for over 25 years, have homeschooled preschool through high school in a bicultural and bilingual home for the past 20 years, and have tutored and taught all ages bilingually in schools and tutoring settings for over 10 years. I have graduated one, and continue to homeschool my other child.

I offer several series of Spanish classes, using familiar translated stories, native Spanish stories, songs, and poems. I teach practical, useable Spanish that can be used right away, and talk about familiar themes interesting to many children.

I believe children learn through different modalities and integrate various learning methods in the live classes and the materials I post to parents.  If there is a class or topic you would like to see covered or your child is interested in (in Spanish), contact me! I do my best to offer a personalized experience.

I also post information about bilingual families and learning a second language on my family language learning page, www.facebook.com/AdelanteSpanishforAll, and author titles on family language learning and language supplements.
