#Confidence This tutoring session will be adapted to the necessities and level of each particular student. We will begin the first week with a proficiency evaluation and from there we will set a program to best help the student achieve their personal goal. My style of classes is very relaxed and flexible. I strive to make my lessons very interesting by using music and games in order to awake the interest of the student. I work with different resources to add fun times to the class. These could be videos, Kahoot games, Blooket games, apps and other materials, all available on the Internet. Emphasis in this class will be on correct pronunciation and proper comprehension, as well as knowing how to recognize the Spanish forms and utilize cognates (words with common roots in English) in order to ease the vocabulary acquisition. The class will be taught in English slowly becoming an immersion class depending on the progress of the student. The use of videos, audio, books and activities along as homework for the student is not compulsory but strongly recommended for the student to progress at a fast pace. Learners do not require any experience and the class will be customized according to their level and proficiency.

Lengualista is a Spanish teaching method where young learners come together to learn languages easily with music, games, and fun. Using music specifically written for learning Spanish and educational games created with Spanish content for young learners, we encourage children's natural intuition and curiosity to keep them engaged and interested while learning Spanish.
Our Spanish classes are:
- Easy: with visual cues and graphic content.
- Interactive: Constant games and activities to keep the students engaged.
- Fun: A variety of fun, different games designed specifically for young learners of the Spanish language every class to help the students learn while playing.
- Supported with additional activities: Additional, exciting activities help the students refresh what they learned in class while feeling great about what they are doing.
Many scientific studies in Neuroscience have demonstrated that learning becomes easy when accompanied by strong positive emotions and when students are paired with enjoyable experiences. This is our main goal when teaching Spanish for Children. Based on this, we decided to spice up our courses with fun all over in every lesson, from songs and games to fun exercises and tricks to keep their mind sharp while interacting and being entertained.
