What is it like to have a lesson with me?
What Are My Lessons Like?
What curriculum do you follow?
Each class brings the student the opportunity to improve their communication skills, both through speaking and writing. To make the most of each session, the student should expect to complete some tasks outside of class, such as watching a movie or reading an article. (I will provide a rich variety of resources that are appropriate to the student’s level). Classes are conversation-based for advanced students, with frequent grammar reviews based on my observations of the student’s recommended areas of improvement.
How do you plan lessons?
I propose a series of topics—one per class. The student will do some preparation work before class in order to get acquainted with that particular topic. I will take notes on the areas that need improvement and dedicate part of the class to explaining the grammar points that need clarification. However, the focus on grammar explanations will be kept to a minimum and shall not hinder communication, which is the primary goal of my classes. I may provide students with exercise sheets to practice as homework. The student will build vocabulary lists, and take notes on grammar explanations.
How do you measure progress?
I like to assess a student’s progress through short spoken and written quizzes, and by going over the notes with the students in order to see the progress they have made from class 1.
What materials/tools do you use?
Resources for the student:
• Magazine articles in PDF format (current and thought-provoking articles related to the topics we are discussing in class)
• Links to relevant movies
• Grammar exercise sheets
Teacher’s resources:
• Spanish grammar books for reference
• Spanish Dictionary
How can you help students with their long-term goals?
By constantly monitoring their progress and keeping an open and transparent communication channel with them in order to assess their improvement and level of comfort in using the Spanish language.
