Me Fascina El Espanol!
About
We will structure lessons according to your goals and learning style. Methodology can include open conversation, activities and games targeting specific content, reading and writing, and field trips. I can refer learners to events and organizations where they can practice their Spanish. I favor using musica latina to increase language exposure and stimulate the learner's interest even outside of class. I have close friends from all over Latin America and a good deal of experience with Spaniards, and can therefore help expose learners to myriad aspects of Hispanic cultures.

I took Spanish lessons with Sarah over the summer, and it was excellent. She helped me set up a plan of what I wanted to learn, when I wanted to learn, and how I wanted to learn. She recommended a mix of Latino music and other Spanish artists, in addition to preparing an assortment of worksheets and packets for me to complete and learn from. When we met (weekly or whenever worked, for whatever amount of time we had decided on the previous week), she would go over the competed worksheets with me, and help me improve upon anything I had missed or wanted to know more about. We met at a public library near her house for a few weeks, but moved to her home for a quieter location for conversational Spanish. She went above and beyond the usual 'worksheets and bookwork', by suggesting music and other things that greatly improved my learning experience, giving me more motivation to learn the language and excel in my studies. She was always prompt and arrived with all of her materials. I am continuing to study Spanish in school and plan on continuing lessons with her possibly next summer, or whenever I feel I need help from an outside source to learn the language to the best of my abilities.

We are a homeschooling family learning Spanish together. We've tried several curricula and classes over the past four + years and have acquired some vocabulary but haven't been able to advance much beyond that. My kids (8 and 11years old) and I loved our experience with Sarah. Her enthusiasm, patience and love of the language gave us the boost we needed; we learned more Spanish with her over the course of a few months than in all the years we've been at it! Through games, conversations, worksheets and meetings at coffee shops we have learned enough to carry on simple conversations in Spanish. We can't wait to try our Spanish skills on our travels! Thank you Sarah!!!
