Find Spanish Classes
Reach out to Varsity Tutors if you are interested in improving your Spanish by taking an Omaha Spanish course. If you are a high school student at one of Omaha's high schools, such as Central High School or Millard North High School, and are studying Spanish in order to fulfill your general education requirements, taking a Spanish course can help you keep up with material you are learning in class. Alternatively, if you are an adult learner studying Spanish, you can also benefit from a Spanish course.
Spanish is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world. It is the official language in around 20 countries, such as Spain, Mexico, Ecuador, and Argentina. There are more than 430 million native speakers around the world. If you ever travel to places such as Mexico or Spain, knowing Spanish can come in handy.
However, Spanish is not just useful for when you travel. In the United States alone, it is estimated that 45 million people speak Spanish. In fact, it is the second most spoken language in the United States. If you can speak and understand Spanish, you will be able to communicate with new people, make new friends and acquaintances, and absorb new cultures. Studying Spanish can also be useful if you do business with Spanish-speaking people in the United States or other countries. Indeed, many business professionals can benefit from studying Spanish.
If you are an adult learner who is looking to challenge themselves by learning one or more languages, Spanish is a great place to start. The grammar and sentence structure found in Spanish, while being different than English, is often thought to be simpler. Thus, it is considered an easy language for native English speakers to learn. Spanish is also a Romance language. This means that it can be a great gateway to learning other Romance languages, such as French, Italian, German, and Russian, in the future.
If you are a student who studied Spanish during high school and are now applying to universities in the Omaha area, such as the University of Nebraska at Omaha, Creighton University, or any other university, taking an online Spanish course is a great way to review the material that you have learned in the past. Alternatively, if you will be signing up for your first language course, Varsity Tutors can provide you with tools and resources to reach for your language learning goals. You may encounter other students at your university who are native Spanish speakers, and you having the ability to speak and understand Spanish can help you connect with them.
What skills might I learn in an Omaha Spanish course?
Spanish, as mentioned, has grammar rules that are often regarded as simpler than the ones found in English. However, they are very different as well. Learning new grammar rules can be confusing to those who have never learned a foreign language, but your Omaha Spanish course instructor can help.
Some topics that your class instructor might cover include Spanish vocabulary, pluralization, written accents, and verb conjugation. Another area that your instructor might focus on is noun-adjective pairing. In Spanish, nouns are gendered. It is important to know how to determine the gender of a noun. In addition, it is crucial to know how adjectives in a sentence might change based on the gender of the noun being used.
Another area where you can benefit from taking an Omaha Spanish class is pronunciation. Getting the pronunciation of Spanish words correctly can be difficult for native English speakers who are first-time students of the language. Your class instructor can help students learn how to read written Spanish with the correct pronunciation, as well as how to speak words with the right accent.
While some students might have the opportunity to practice their Spanish with relatives, friends, and neighbors, many others do not. Taking a Spanish class can provide you with a chance to practice your Spanish. Speaking and hearing the language you are studying on a regular basis is important for improving fluency. Without practice, it can take students longer to develop the ability to recall correct words, phrases, and grammar structure when holding a conversation.
How will an Omaha Spanish course work?
Enrolling in an Omaha Spanish class is easy. New sections start each month so you won't have to wait long to start practicing your Spanish. The classes take place over the internet in an interactive, virtual classroom. You will be able to see your instructor and the other students in the class. All of you will interact in real time, just as you would in a physical classroom. This gives you all of the benefits of studying in a traditional class setting without some of the disadvantages. Put another way, you will be able to enjoy an interactive class experience from your own home and avoid the hassle of commuting to a classroom. If you do not own a car, traveling to a class that takes place in a specific location can be time-consuming and stressful since you might have to walk, take public transportation, or pay for taxis.
Not only are Varsity Tutor classes convenient, but they are flexible as well. Some students enjoy studying in the morning, while others might only have time after work, after school, during their lunch break, or on the weekends. Whichever you prefer, we can help you find a class that fits your schedule.
You can also request private time with your class instructor if you feel as though you need some one-on-one time to go over the pronunciation of certain words or course topics you find difficult.
What's the best way to get started with an Omaha Spanish course?
Reach out to Varsity Tutors if you are interested in finding out more information about an Omaha Spanish class. Whether you are about to begin your language learning journey, need to review what you learned in previous classes, or desire an opportunity to practice speaking the language with other students, we can help you find a class that works for you. Give us a call today.

I also enjoy teaching Spanish; as a native speaker of the language, I understand how to move past the vocabulary memorization.
