Hola!!!!
I'm back, just a quick update, after a day being sick, you know the ups and downs of being a self employed, if you get sick no body else do the work...
Anyways, here we are. Day two of our first week in which we are suppose to cover the first unit.
We were talking about famous people from the Spanish speaking world.
And let me ask you, as I ask to my students. ¿Conoces personajes famosos del mundo hispano?
The answers are always very similar: Salma Hayek, Penelope Cruz, Shakira, Chicharito, Diego Rivera y Frida Kahlo, etc.
And then I ask them: ¿A qué se dedica "..."? to start learning professions and as a complement the next question ¿De dónde es "..." ? So we start learning nationalities.
We practice with other famous characters, their nationalities and professions, have fun, gossip a bit about them and in between some grammar.
Today we spend some time during the lesson practicing a bit with some pronuntiation exercises, I believe that it is very important to get the right pronuntiation at the very beginning so you can have a solid development of your learning with this you will make things much more easier for you afterwards.
I hope you have enjoyed this, that I wanted to share with you, and I'll see you tomorrow!
Ah! and for todays lesson, my student had to do as a homework an exercise to practice nationalities that we will use tomorrow to revisit different rules about the gender of nouns!
And please remember that If you are interested in having Spanish lessons with me just send me an email and we can have a first trial lesson, and you too can try and see if this is for you!
Looking forward to hearing from you
