학기 스페인어 세션: 튜터링

In this private tutoring course, third-grade students and up will learn to speak, write, read, and listen in Spanish. They will also become familiar with the culture and customs of Spanish-speaking countries. Students will develop their ability to communicate in Spanish in everyday situations, such as introducing themselves, talking about their interests and needs, and asking simple questions. Students will also acquire basic grammatical and vocabulary skills to construct sentences and express their ideas clearly.

I use games and technology tools to assist in engagement (Goggle Jamboard, Duolingo). I expect students to speak and write as we work together. 

The weekly topics are fully customizable based on student and family input of need. Below is a typical breakdown of sessions.
