Intermediate Level
Interested in traveling to a Spanish speaking country? Our family is. Come join us in Costa Rica for this informal, but informative and educational lunch bunch. Grab a drink and a snack, and we will begin with a mini-lesson focused on common trouble points for intermediate learners —e.g. irregular verbs, reflexive verbs, subjunctive tense, etc. We will then transition into a question answer period where complete immersion is expected. There will be no English at this stage, and each learner will do his/her best to converse in Spanish in a supportive environment. This is about taking risks and learning. No one is expected to be fluent. Mini Lessons for each week will include: 1. Week of 12/26-12/29: Irregular Verbs and present verb tense 2. Week of 1/1-/5: Irregular Verbs -Part 2 3. Week of 1/8-1/12: Preterite Verb Tense 4. Week of 1/15-1/19: Imperfect Verb Tense All of these lessons should be partially review for the intermediate Spanish learner, so any missed lessons should not be a problem for new students that enter later sessions.

I am a classroom teacher who minored in Spanish in university. I went for a semester abroad in Costa Rica in 1998 and was enamored with the country and culture. I returned with my family for the 2016-17 school year, and the 2023-24 school year. Now here we are again, and I am eager to share my passion for Spanish, nature, and culture with my students!
