Class Experience

Beginner Level
**** This class is for students with NO prior Spanish experience. It will go slow with lots of repetition and activities to review the vocabulary. I offer a different class for Advanced Beginners, if you are not sure, feel free to send me a message and I will help you find the right class for your student.****

In this Ongoing class for beginners, students will learn the basics of the Spanish language slow, simple, easy and fun. This class is for students with No previous experience with Spanish. We will practice the pronunciation as a group and then I will ask each student to repeat the word after me, giving the students individual attention and meeting their level. It will be a bilingual class English/Spanish.
Each week there will be a different set of words and sentences, that will help them create conversations with their classmates encouraging them to build confidence as they speak.
The material will be sent after the class and includes the vocabulary and grammar in a PDF along with a video with the vocabulary and pronunciation to help students practice after class. If a student can not attend a class, the video will provide all the tools to practice the concepts and the pronunciation taught during each week.*** This is not the class video, it is a shorter video with the vocabulary and grammar of the week.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Universidad Jorge Tadeo Lozano
During my College years, I worked for a language company in Colombia (CIL),  I was trained by the owner in a conversational teaching method to teach ESL and Spanish to foreigners. It was a great opportunity to learn hands on how to teach others to communicate in other languages, how to teach children both in English and Spanish and how to be a bridge of knowledge in every subject that I was Certified in. It was such a wonderful experience that I kept working for them for more than 8 years giving me vast training in handling English and Spanish classes, I now use that experience and the fact that I am a native Spanish speaker to share what I know with children and to help them cope with anxiety and stress through mindfulness.
Even though my mayor is in International Business, my passion is working with children and learning along the with them.
