Description
Class Experience
In this one-time baking and language course, students will learn how to make the traditional "pan de muerto" or "bread of the dead" which is made in Mexico for Day of the Dead / Día de Los Muertos. While baking, students will also get to use their Spanish skills to read and follow the recipe, measure ingredients, and answer or ask questions. The teacher will speak completely in Spanish and students are encouraged to do so as well. This will help maintain the immersive environment. Students...
Students will use and improve their Spanish speaking, reading, listening, and comprehension skills. They will learn and practice vocabulary words related to food and cooking/baking.
Spanish - I hold a degree in Education and Spanish. I fluently speak Spanish and use it in 90% of my daily life. I learned Spanish in Bolivia and am married to a native speaker. Cooking/Baking - Cooking and baking are not just hobbies, but passions of mine. I have been cooking and baking since I was a child. I also worked for several summers in a large, industrial kitchen at a children's summer camp, feeding over 300 campers daily.
