Class Experience
Beginner - Intermediate Level
I will emphasize what the student needs to improve. The weekly discussions will be guided by the teacher. During class, the teacher will help students with pronunciation and correct grammar as needed. Learners will have ample opportunities to speak and practice their Spanish conversational skills because I will promote conversation all the time. In each class the students will have a cultural encounter ( in this section I give students a firsthand encounter with some aspect of a Spanish- speaking culture). My classes are personalized to focus on your child's unique needs: Would you prefer that we focus on helping with Spanish homework assignments, or are there particular skills you would like us to prioritize? Additionally, if there are any specific learning methods or tools that have been effective for your child in the past, please let me know. First class will be exploratory. The student will talk, read and write about an interesting topic according to his or her level of Spanish. This class will allow me to better to set up the class for week 1. If the student is enrolled twice a week and you wish, you can receive some activities to reinforce during the week or We can work with a book (parents need to buy the book) if the course will be taken for two months or more and you want more inmmersion in Spanish. I will recommend you what book I use in my classes according your children's level. Week 1: Topic: Greetings, introducing people and responding to an introduction; asking how someone is and saying how you are; subject pronouns; asking and saying how old is someone is; asking where someone is and saying where you are from; numbers 0-30; verb SER; cultural encounter ( in this section I give you a firsthand encounter with some aspect of a Spanish- speaking culture). We will cover each week depending on the student's level of Spanish and we will stop as much as possible for a better understanding of the topics. Week 2 talking about likes and dislikes (sports, music, food, classes); using nouns and definite articles el and la; reading strategy: using cognates to determine the meanings of words). cultural encounter ( in this section I give you a firsthand encounter with some aspect of a Spanish- speaking culture).

I would like to know how we might work together to best support your child's educational journey. As we begin, I would love to hear more about your goals and any specific areas where you feel your child could use some extra assistance.
