Learners will practice asking and answering questions in Spanish related to these topics to get Spanish conversation practice each class. The amount of content we cover will depend on the number of students, overall student comprehension, etc., but I always encourage a lot of verbal output from each student.

I passed the Spanish Praxis exam required to teach Spanish in my state and taught middle school Spanish for 2 years. I have also formally worked as a Spanish interpreter with a school district for parent-teacher conferences. While I am Hispanic, I am not a native Spanish speaker.
