In this one-time 25 minute Fun Intro to Spanish class, young students will be introduced to some Spanish basics through the use of songs and puppets. Students will learn how to 1) say "My name is... (Me llamo...)" 2) have a short conversation with a greeting and goodbye and 3) count to ten in Spanish. This is a highly interactive class where participation through speaking, singing, body movement, and clapping is encouraged. I will teach the necessary vocabulary words through repetition and visuals, then we will learn a fun song to support each learning objective. I will be using my puppets to model conversations, and if students have their own puppet or stuffed animal, they are encouraged to bring one to class with them. The puppet/animal can also help to calm any nervousness that students may be feeling when speaking a new language. Families will receive a pdf of the songs to print out for introduction to the vocabulary before class and continued practice after class. Students will leave this one-time class proud of the Spanish that they learned and excited to learn more! I can't wait to see your student in class!

¡Hola! Me llamo Amanda, and I have been a Spanish teacher for the past 15 years. I taught public high school Spanish levels 1-4 and AP Spanish Language and Culture in the traditional classroom for the first 9 years of my teaching career, and for the past 6 years, I have taught and tutored online, focusing on students ages 3-14. All things Spanish have been my passion since I was 14 years old. I took my first Spanish class as a freshman in high school and fell in love. This love has led me to live and study in Spain and Costa Rica as well as take some of my students on adventures in both of these countries. My job as a Spanish teacher is to convey my love of the Spanish language and culture to your student and to facilitate an inviting and enjoyable learning experience for him/her. When we are comfortable and having fun, we learn more and we learn better! I believe that learning a second (or third or fourth) language is an important task in today's world, and with over 475 million people worldwide natively speaking it, Spanish is a great choice! The more people understand other languages, other people, and other cultures, the better our world will be. :) I can't wait to see your child in class!Reviews
