What Will Be Taught? The Spanish for Travel and Tourism course focuses on equipping students with practical Spanish language skills tailored to various travel and tourism scenarios. Through lectures and explanations, interactive activities, multimedia resources, and practicing real-life scenarios, students will finish the class prepared to take on the world of travel in Spanish. My teaching style is interactive and engaging, emphasizing active student participation through role-plays and practical exercises. I also incorporate visual aids and multimedia to support learning and make content relatable. I aim to create a friendly and supportive environment where students feel comfortable practicing and asking questions. Learners will have plenty of opportunity throughout the course to interact with the teacher and other students. This includes lectures and demonstrations, games and role-plays, slides and videos, and discussions and Q&A.
