5. What's the best way to use Online Spanish Tutor?
Online Spanish Tutor is most helpful when it supplements other ways of learning. It's not recommended that Online Spanish Tutor be the only way a student is learning Spanish, but it can supplement other methods. For instance, if a student is taking a college class, that's their primary way of learning. Online Spanish Tutor can supplement that learning by filling in the gaps and helping them understand concepts. If someone is going abroad to a country where Spanish is spoken, Online Spanish Tutor can supplement that experience by helping them understand certain phrases, grammatical constructions, and things they encounter on the go, providing quick responses to enhance their travels.
6. Do the tutors conduct tutoring and respond to inquiries in languages other than English?
Right now, our tutors only conduct tutoring in English and, of course, Spanish. We may be able to assist students who submit their requests in other languages if they submit them in text form only and in proper grammar in the source language. Our tutors will attempt to use recent advances in translation technology to translate the incoming request in a language other than English, and the responses could potentially be translated back into the source language from English. Of course, there will always be some things lost in translation when using online translators, but this could be a way for someone who’s not an English speaker to use our service and get help with learning Spanish.
