I will help learner's improve their overall knowledge of the Spanish language.

I offer one-to-one personal tutoring sessions for students in need of extra support in learning the Spanish language. I focus on:
-expanding Spanish vocabulary
-expanding academic language in Spanish
-improving pronunciation
-improving reading comprehension
-introducing key grammatical structures and verb tenses (present, past (preterite and imperfect), future, conditional, present and imperfect subjunctive, the perfect tenses, topical vocabulary (can be fit to suit individual needs)
-using idiomatic expressions
-exploring Latin American and Spanish culture and history
-preparation for the International Baccalaureate (IB) Spanish examination (SL and HL levels)

Each session's focus will be on grammatical structures and verb tenses (present, past (preterite and imperfect), future, conditional, present and imperfect subjunctive, the perfect tenses, as well as topical vocabulary. Each session will be personalized to suit individual student's needs.

A typical schedule for a student's first month of lessons is as follows: 

Week One: Initial evaluation and assessment of individual learner's strengths and weaknesses in the Spanish language.
Week Two: Initial instruction to improve first identified area of weakness (oftentimes through a detailed explanation of a particular grammatical topic)
Week Three: Further practice of the previous week's lesson
Week Four: Additional practice to solidify the news skills learned.

Open to all levels: Beginner through advanced
