Spanish Classes with Local Tutors in Valley Cottage, NY

Spanish is a unique language; it’s one of the easiest to be introduced to, yet remains a great challenge for anyone wishing to grow their linguistic repertoire. Through learning another language, you get to learn more ways on how to express yourself and to see how similarities between cultures exist, plus a plethora of other wonderful possibilities, like, for example, traveling to other countries and places that speak the language. Learning is always fun, and whenever challenging it can help you to grow.

With these sessions, I will cover, in depth, the vocabulary, grammar, and other linguistic features of Spanish.

I teach in a way that is as focused on the grammar as you want to be. I prefer conversational classes, but for many in traditional classes it is the grammar that they are not understanding.

I can teach you beginner's Spanish- speaking, reading, writing through fun interactive games, music and conversational exercises. I have lived in Chile and Spain, studied Spanish in college, and taught Spanish to kids, teenagers and adults.

I am a native English speaker living in Chicago, Illinois.

I have tutored middle school, high school, college students and adult learners around the world. Sign up for a lesson so we can get to know each other and discuss your goals! :)

Students can expect to learn Spanish with a native speaker so I can help students to understand the language and manners.

Spanish is my very first foreign language that I've been studying off-and-on since 1995. My specialty is grammar but I also can go over vocabulary, pronunciation, and other topics. My Hispanic friends call me "Pablo" or "Pablito" and some people have even told me I speak Spanish better than I do English (whatever that's supposed to mean). I have both a BA and MA in Spanish and wrote my Master's thesis on Miguel de Cervantes' "Don Quijote de la Mancha."
