In this week-long "crash course" class, students will review important concepts from middle or high school Spanish 1. It can be viewed as a "camp" of sorts, in the sense that we will cover important topics very quickly. This class would be especially beneficial for a student beginning a high school Spanish course who wants to review before it begins. This class covers several grammar and vocabulary topics through interactive discussions, independent practice and group activities. I enjoy using technology to enhance student learning through videos, games and more. I am a Spanish 1 teacher with a masters in Education, so I am familiar with the topics and formats that students need to be successful in learning a foreign language. At a cost of just $20 an hour for a week (total of 5 hours plus independent work time), this is a fantastic way to ensure your student is confident for high school Spanish. I hope to see you in the class!
