I want to practice speaking in Spanish with you! My goal is to help you improve your skills through conversations! In my experience, students often focus too much on grammar and vocabulary in class and very little time speaking. In real life, your language skills will be as good as you can speak and read. In this class, students will speak as much as possible. Be ready to read short texts, answer questions, defend a random opinion on a topic, and so much more! We will review and practice useful grammar, vocabulary, and phrases, as well. I will also review any specific elements with which you are struggling. I will assign voluntary homework that you can send back to me for comments. But, more than anything, if you sign up for this class, make sure you are ready to converse! The class will be for more advanced speakers. You should be familiar with verbs conjugation in the present tense, and the existence of gender for nouns, adjectives, and articles. At this level you should also be able to talk about yourself, your family, and personal interests. Don't worry - since this is an intermediate class, we will still cover some of the more difficult aspects of the language for non-native-Spanish speakers. During this class we will focus on learning to speak in the future and past, and so much more. For example, we will also learn to use conditional sentences and I will introduce the use of other tenses, such subjunctive and imperative. Week breakdown for the first 4 weeks: Week of August 29th: Asking Questions / Talking about yourself Week of September 5th: Perfect Tense / Summer vacation Week of September 12th: Future / Immediate future (I am going to...) Week of September 19th: Future / Simple future (I will...) New topics will be included each week (from September to June). Please Note: *Each class will cover and independent topic that will not required knowledge from the previous classes. However, as learners continue to take lessons they will gain confidence speaking and learn grammar and vocabulary. *This is a foreign language class. While participation is not required it is a necessary element for student success. Please keep that in mind when enrolling. *All class times are approximate. Class length varies based on student progress and number of learners. Sometimes classes run a little over time to give time to every student to complete every activity. *All classes will begin on time as long as there is at least one learner in the classroom. If 10 minutes after start time there are no students in the class the teacher will exit the classroom. This class cannot be taught with no students, so no recordings will be available for classes with zero attendance. *This class usually runs from September to June.

The class will use a shared word document that I create and send to the students after the class. I use this word document to share the readings, questions, and exercises with which we will work. This saves time by permitting us to engage and share notes in real time, as well as enabling the students to keep the materials at the end of the class (as a pdf file that I attach to the Outschool classroom AT THE END of every class).

In my personal experience as a teacher and former student, I have found that language classes don't focus enough on giving the students the opportunity to speak. There is no way you will master a language without putting yourself out there and trying to converse.
I have several years of experience teaching Spanish to people from many different background, ages, and levels. I truly enjoy teaching my students not only to speak Spanish but gain confidence and feel comfortable expressing themselves in a foreign language.
