Private Tutoring / 1:1 - Design Your Own Spanish Lessons

This class is taught in Spanish.

This depends on the parents' and students' goals. For those who would like their children to have a good understanding of Spanish and have the ability to speak Spanish well within a year or two, it will be necessary to assist your child outside of class (practicing and reviewing vocabulary with your child, completing optional homework provided, watching tv/movies in Spanish and/or listening to stories in Spanish, rewatching classes, etc.). For those who simply would like to introduce their children to Spanish and help them get started, we will focus on learning vocabulary and basic grammar, but there will not be as much of a focus of attaining goals--simply having fun (but learning in the process). 

I have a Bachelor's Degreee in Spanish Language & Literature and in previous jobs, I communicated with individuals in Spanish on a daily basis. I studied Spanish in high school and college and struggled to understand or speak Spanish (although I could do the written work just fine), until I studied abroad for a semester in Spain. It was there that I began to see the benefit of immersive learning and using the language constantly (repetition) in order to learn the language well.

Homework will be provided, but will not be required. Again, depending on the goals of the parents, more or less homework will be provided for children to complete in order to review the lessons from class.

Assessment will be provided upon request in a manner that is preferred by parents.

25 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
