Welcome!
How can I help my child study? I don’t know Spanish! 1. Provide
positive support. Encourage your
child to do the best he or she can in every class. Knowing that parents support them yet
still expect them to try hard can be a powerful motivator. Don’t let them give up just because
something is difficult. 2. Study
vocabulary with your child. One
of the hardest things for students to do is learn vocabulary. We will learn over 1200 words just in
Spanish I and students are expected to retain those words while adding new
ones through the end of Spanish II.
Make flashcards and study every night. Focus on definition as well as
spelling. The hard work will be
worth it in the end. (You can’t
speak a foreign language if you don’t know the words in the language!) 3. Encourage
your child to come to tutoring.
Currently, tutoring is held on Mondays and Tuesdays from 2:45 until
~3:30. If your child is getting
frustrated or if you know he or she just does better with one-on-one
instruction, provide a way for him or her to be here. I’m here to help!
