I begin by getting to know the student, their goals, interests, and previous experience with Spanish. I assess their current level through a relaxed conversation and introduce basic pronunciation and useful Spanish phrases. We focus on making the student feel comfortable speaking from the very first lesson while establishing a personalized learning plan.
We build on the foundation from the first lesson by practicing greetings, introductions, pronunciation, basic vocabulary, and simple sentence structures. Students begin forming their own sentences and having short conversations. I use repetition, questions, examples, and real-life situations to help them understand and actively use what they learn.
We gradually expand vocabulary, grammar, listening, speaking, and conversational skills. Students practice topics such as family, daily routines, food, hobbies, travel, and everyday situations. Lessons include guided conversations, pronunciation practice, interactive activities, and review so students can build confidence and communicate more naturally.
We continue developing the studentβs Spanish according to their individual goals and interests. Lessons become increasingly conversational and personalized, with continued work on grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, listening comprehension, and fluency. I regularly review previous material, introduce new topics, and adjust the lessons based on the studentβs progress and areas that need more practice.
