About Classes

This is more than just a class;

it is a language-learning community!

Carolyn works with two different levels of Spanish. Level One is for beginners and people who aren’t quite ready to have a general conversation. By the end of the semester, students can speak about several popular themes in the Language. Some can generate questions on their own.
Level Two is for those who have had more experience with the language and want to speak more in the past tense (or tell their stories).

Classes are two hours long with the first hour focused on everyday conversations and numbers, and the second hour is reading in a daily reader. Rather than memorizing lists and working worksheets, acquisition occurs gradually with in-person experiences with other students.

Carolyn has acquired a license to teach Spanish from the University of Northern Colorado. How- ever, she considers her success with the language due to listening and understanding native speakers, experience in the community, and a continued commitment to practice when possible.

The classes are fun and engaging. They start with a story each semester to introduce the most common verbs in the language. Every daily conversation and reading experience builds using basic high-frequency verbs.

Student Comment

This is an amazing class. I have learned so much of the language, but I have also learned about Spanish-speaking cultures. The class is fun with no pressure. I recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn Spanish for the first time or to refresh high-school Spanish skills.
