Spanish Tutor

Learning a language other than English is an important part of a student's high school career. Many Colleges and Universities look for a progression through three or four years of a language.

Spanish is the most popular language that students take in middle and high school. When students get behind in Spanish, it is often very hard to catch up. Spanish grammar progresses, with each lesson building upon the last. When a student is fuzzy on one grammar lesson, then that student may have trouble understanding future lessons that build upon it.

Our Spanish tutors know the pitfalls, the common places where students get caught in Spanish. Some of the major ones are:

  1. Ser vs. estar
  2. The preterite past tense vs. the imperfect past tense
  3. Spelling and accent marks
  4. Irregular verbs like ir
  5. Por vs. para
  6. The subjunctive tense
  7. Formal and informal commands
  8. Direct and indirect object pronouns
  9. Putting sentences together--writing
  10. Understanding what someone says and then responding

Our Spanish tutors provide easy to understand explanations and help your student practice these concepts to perfection. They also demonstrate how students can practice when the tutor is not there, so that progress continues between sessions.
