Do you teach in Spanish?
No. While I have learned a bit of Spanish over the years, I do not actually teach in Spanish. I use it only as a last resort with students who are novices or with students' families.
How do you teach someone English if you don't know their language?
The methodologies that we are trained in while studying linguistics enables the students to form a foundation by learning basic vocabulary and phrases. Through pictures, videos, gestures, experiences, and digital applications, the students are able to learn basic vocabulary and syntax as well as the essentials of grade level standards.
How many students do you have?
I generally serve around 30-35 students broken up into groups of 3 - 7 students for focused, small group instruction.
