Online Spring 2022 Adult Spanish Classes

Adult Spanish – I am still teaching my private classes ONLINE for Spring 2022. Join us on Zoom from wherever you are! To register, please email me at pfressidrobo @ hotmail.com by February 25, 2022. The information about the classes is below.

Note: My classes through the Caldwell School of Continuing Education are IN-PERSON, you can register online; see the link below. Please don´t delay, as they are making decisions soon as to which classes will run.

Teaching Method

I use stories, conversation, gestures, and other activities to teach Spanish. Students have ample opportunity to listen (very important!) to acquire new vocabulary and sentence structures. I give quick grammatical explanations, if needed. We practice verb endings/tenses always in context. My approach leads students to acquire and use the language. It´s a lot of fun . . . and it works!
