IMPROVE YOUR CONVERSATIONAL SPANISH!
My Spanish lessons focus on real-life conversations. You learn Spanish words in context and you will learn the fundamental language structure. If you are planning on traveling to a Spanish speaking country you will be miles ahead when it comes to communicating with your local hosts.
I select exercises and adapt lessons to the student's own interests and motivations. For example the environment, traveling, art and culture, etc. I put emphasis on practicing conversations.
I offer three levels:
Vamos a Platicar I
Vamos a Platicar II
Vamos a Platicar III
Each level consists of 10 lessons. The student decides its own pace to complete each level.
In addition, I offer special Spanish lessons with focus on social activism and solidarity work. In these lessons students learn plenty of Spanish social-justice vocabulary and practice real-life conversations.
I offer private lessons: one-to-one, for couples and for group (three or more students).
Lessons are taught at my place in Dartmouth – central location close to MacDonald Bridge and ferry - classes can also be taken at student’s home or office – depending on distance additional charge may apply. For groups (4 or more students) we book a public meeting room (e.g. public library, etc).
Schedules are flexible. Lessons start every week. Lessons are taught on weekdays, am, pm and evenings (depending on time availability).
Please contact me for more information and let me know what time and day(s) work best for your lessons.
Muchas Gracias!

Guess what the big news was this week in Latin America? in Spanish ;-)
PARIS HILTON SALE DE PRISIÓN
Also, there was another important news in Latin America. This time it was about the creation of a big bank for the people of the South! A bank where profit is not the driving force! Can you believe this! A bank that wil help to clean the mess created by the IMF and the World Bank in Latin America.
The creation of the new bank - Banco del ALBA - is just a small part of a growing trend of integration and solidarity among the peoples in the Americas. You can read the entire news (in Spanish) in this TELESUR link http://telesurtv.net/secciones/noticias/nota/index.php?ckl=12776
