CLASS DESCRIPTION
This is a Spanish class for all levels of learning! We will begin each lesson as a whole group with conversational practice, vocabulary skills work, and improving reading skills in the target language. Class will then be split into two groups: Spanish I (new learners or students with limited previous experience) and Spanish II (students who are comfortable with the present tense and have a strong vocabulary background). Each group will spend 20 minutes with the instructor on learning and mastering new grammar concepts through instruction and practice, while the opposite group works together on either a small group practice or individual learning. We will come together at the end of the class time for review games and activities. Weekly homework will be assigned and may include work online. Students should be prepared for a fun, hands on learning experience!
In case it was missed - Regardless of the student's level of Spanish (beginner or Level II), you can all be in the same class. Jackie is trained to handle both simultaneously. If you have any questions about this, please email pathrochester@gmail.com.
