Hola amigos,

My Winter short semester is winding down and I’m looking ahead to the Spring semester. I am offering the following classes privately. All groups are small (5-8 people) and use a conversation-based approach, employing stories, games and other activities.

Classes start the week of March 9, 2020 and generally go 14 weeks.

I have openings in the following classes. Please note the day and time, as some of them are daytime classes. I am also putting the ones that are full if you wish to be put on the waiting list. I may have some spots opening soon.

Please let me know as soon as possible if you are interested so I can send you further details. There is a $20 Early Bird fee for registering by Feb. 12.

Advanced Spanish Class – Read a Contemporary Novel (Livingston/Roseland, NJ)

SPACES STILL AVAILABLE – This semester I am adding a new class on Monday evenings for advanced students.  We will read a contemporary novel, Como agua para chocolate, by the Mexican author Laura Esquivel. We will converse intensively about the novel and other topics, review grammar as needed, and work on advanced vocabulary. Please let me know if you are at all interested, even if you just want to try it out, as the class starts next week. You can email me at  pfressidrobo @ hotmail.com

Who is this class for? This class is for students who have taken Sp. 1- 4 , or the equivalent, or college level Spanish literature classes. They should have had exposure to all tenses in Spanish and be able to hold an advanced conversation (perfection not necessary!)

Livingston Spanish Conversation Meetup

Meetup Sign

What if you want to speak Spanish but can’t find a conversation class, or can’t commit to a regular schedule? Or if you are taking a class and want extra practice? Well, I recently started a local Meetup group to address your situation. Called the Livingston Spanish Conversation Meetup, this group will hold meetings for both beginners and intermediate level Spanish students in Livingston, NJ.

Monday evenings – advanced beginner/intermediate level conversation

Thursday evenings – beginning level conversation

In the beginning classes, you will learn and practice basic conversation, and play games, such as Fluxx en español. Vocabulary and grammatical structures will be taught, as needed.

In the advanced beginner/intermediate class, we will engage in conversation related to current topics, a Spanish article, a story, or anything of interest to participants. Explanations and review of grammatical points will be given as needed.

I am offering 90-minute sessions (in a restaurant or in a private home.) It is free to join Meetup and to join the Livingston Spanish Conversation Meetup. Once you sign up, you can RSVP for future meetings/classes. There is a fee of $10.00 per person per class. To sign up, please go to http://www.meetup.com/Livingston-Spanish-Conversation-Meetup .
