In this class, children learn Spanish while having fun as they become familiar with new Spanish words, sentences, and vocabulary each week with a native Spanish bilingual teacher. All sections only accept up to six students, so the class will be small, personalized and interactive. Reading funny dialogs, playing Kahoot, Blooket, and Improv games, listening to music, and watching videos in Spanish will help kids gain a deeper understanding and ability to communicate in the third most spoken language in the world, Spanish. Through dialogs in Spanish, creative games and songs, children will learn how to communicate and ask questions in Spanish. In addition to sharing work and learning from each other, our classroom board will provide us with a space to exchange ideas. By the end of the class, students will be able to use electronic resources such as songs, lyrics, crafts, and videos to learn more and have fun. This is a new class but here are some of our reviews for other classes we teach: "This teacher has truly impacted our family and our son's life..." "Profe Arnaly is the best. Learning is easy when it is so fun..." "Great class design. The teacher is fun and energetic..." "My daughter’s Spanish has really come a long way..." This is a continuation class for students coming from the Intermediate Level 10 Spanish course from Profe Arnaly Yo hablo español! series. This ongoing Spanish Intermediate class is set up so that each class is independent of the other. Any student can start in any class. Kids progressively build fluency in Spanish. Since this is an Intermediate class, the lessons will be taught mostly in Spanish with English explanations. There will be conversation practice. Each class is structured as follows: - Vocabulary and Pronunciation in Spanish - Song or Story containing frequent Spanish structures - Deconstruction of the Spanish elements of the song or the story - Interactive activities that induce conversation and fluency in Spanish (games, drawing, dialogues, improv games) - Home Mission in Spanish which consists on videos, drawings, games, crafts and fun things for the kids to do and continue practicing Spanish.

Lengualista is a Spanish teaching method where young learners come together to learn languages easily with music, games, and fun. Using music specifically written for learning Spanish and educational games created with Spanish content for young learners, we encourage children's natural intuition and curiosity to keep them engaged and interested while learning Spanish.
Our Spanish classes are:
- Easy: with visual cues and graphic content.
- Interactive: Constant games and activities to keep the students engaged.
- Fun: A variety of fun, different games designed specifically for young learners of the Spanish language every class to help the students learn while playing.
- Supported with additional activities: Additional, exciting activities help the students refresh what they learned in class while feeling great about what they are doing.
Many scientific studies in Neuroscience have demonstrated that learning becomes easy when accompanied by strong positive emotions and when students are paired with enjoyable experiences. This is our main goal when teaching Spanish for Children. Based on this, we decided to spice up our courses with fun all over in every lesson, from songs and games to fun exercises and tricks to keep their mind sharp while interacting and being entertained.
