Let's Speak Spanish! (Relaxed and Guided Beginner Level Conversation)
In this ongoing course, students can apply their Spanish in a real conversation, and gain confidence in their spoken Spanish. Each class topic is unique, using labelled, illustrated vocabulary slides as a basis from the teacher's screen. Questions will be adapted as needed to ensure the right level challenge for each learner.

Do you feel like your learner "knows" Spanish, but can't speak it? The best way to gain confidence in speaking Spanish is, you guessed it, speaking Spanish! As a trained K-12 Spanish teacher, I have worked with all levels of learner, from beginner to advanced, to help students expand not only the Spanish that they know, but also their comfort applying it in real conversations. I have also been trained in the Oral Proficiency Interview (OPI), which helps me listen to where learners are, and help them work towards the next level. Making sure all students feel comfortable and safe to take language risks is key to developing each learner's confidence. I will quickly get to know each learner's ability level, and support them with guided questions, vocabulary support, and some English support as they need to help them feel comfortable and confident in their developing Spanish speaking skills. This class works well both with a single learner, as well as a group of peers! Each class presents the content needed for that particular day (questions and answers, and illustrated vocabulary topic lists), so learners can come in at any time and easily participate. Drop in to work on your Spanish and have a fun time chatting! New topics discussed weekly.
