Using a helpful textbook, specially curated YouTube videos, and classroom instruction and conversation, Mr. Kaplan teaches Spanish in a fun, interactive, and very effective way.
The class will begin with basic Spanish words and phrases that you can use right away with Spanish speakers. Next, the focus will be on basic grammar and sentence structure, and making and saying sentences in the present tense. Helpful videos will enable you to hear and understand native speakers.
Next, we will learn the past, future, and conditional tenses and commands, and the subjunctive.
This is a multi-semester course, each class continuing where the prior class left off. There is no homework or tests. Just sit back and listen as we do grammar exercises, watch Spanish language videos, and speak in Spanish to each other. It’s an easy way to learn how to speak the second most spoken language in America. Learning a foreign language has also been shown to delay or reduce the onset of dementia.
