Class Experience
My class is meant for anyone who wants to learn Spanish in a useful way. Maybe you are frustrated that your children are not progressing after many years studying the language, they haven't been exposed to it a long time ago and lack fluency, or they have never learned a word of it. In these 8 weeks, we will cover all the basic topics such as nouns, genders, regular and irregular verbs, common phrases, how introduce oneself, colors, numbers, animals, ... and much more! Each class will focus...

Homework
Frequency: includedFeedback: includedDetails: After each class I will post some homework to practice the materials we have covered in the class. Even though, the homework is optional, I highly recommend spending some time doing the activities to help understanding and memorization. There will be homework that needs to be submitted as a word document and some additional activities for practice will be provided using a Nearpod presentation. I will review and provide feedback to all the submitted homework.Assessment
Frequency: includedDetails: The progress is assed in every class. I will be happy to provide specific reports at the end of the 8 weeks (upon request).
The class will use sometimes nearpod presentations to complete some activities. I will provide the link to the presentation in the chat during the class.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Parents, I can help your children learn Spanish in a useful and meaningful way. Please, let me know if you have any questions.
