Learn to speak Spanish

Learning a new language doesn’t have to be stressful or complicated. There are 3 things that you need to make it a success. Your classes need to be comprehensible, in context and compelling. The days of long thematic vocabulary lists and complicated grammar rules are long gone. Welcome to teaching with Comprehensible Input.

  • Group classes ranging from 6 - 12 students focus on reading and story telling plus many interesting conversations about life. Each course runs in either 6 or 8 week sessions.

  • These classes are designed to be individual sessions. Minimum 2 students, maximum 5. Tutoring sessions are 1 hour and focus on conversational Spanish. Students may come in and out of tutoring, there is no weekly commitment.

  • Many adults still want to learn how to Speak Spanish. I guide the adult learner through a popular and intriguing TV series and teach the language along the way. Conversational Spanish is best learned while highly entertained. Each session is 10 weeks for approximately 1 hr each session.

Elementary School Sessions

This class is designed for grades 4, 5 and 6. Students must be able to read in English in order to take the class. No prior Spanish is necessary for the class. Each session runs for either 6 or 8 weeks and in that time students have conversations, tell stories, sing popular songs from the radio and READ all in Spanish. Classes are designed to have the language live inside of them and be forever in their long term memory. Healthy, organic snacks are served with each session. Currently classes are held from 3:30 - 5:00 in South Huntington Beach.

Cost for an 8 week series is $250 + $25 material fee. Sibling discount available.

Cost for a 6 week series is $200 + $25 material fee. Sibling discount available.

Middle / High School

Private Tutoring Sessions

Private tutoring for middle / high school students takes place on a weekly basis. The purpose of these sessions is to SPEAK Spanish. So if you are feeling let down by your school’s program, come sit in a small group and chat about life in a stress free and highly engaging environment.

Tutoring is different than a class because each session is only 1 hour and is designed to have an isolated topic of conversation each week. Students and families have the flexibility to drop in when needed.

Each session is $25. Each group needs a minimum of 2 students to run. Tutoring caps at 5 students maximum.

Tutoring sessions are held in my home in South Huntington Beach.
