Spanish 1 Tutoring FAQ
Spanish 1 introduces us to the Spanish language and is taken sometime in middle school. The Spanish language is one of the most popular languages spoken with hundreds of millions of speakers in Span and north and south America. Whether your child is looking to gain a firmer command of the language or they are falling behind in their Spanish 1 course and need some extra help, Varsity Tutors can help you find a tutor to help them.
Middle school Spanish 1 tutoring helps with:
Phonology
Grammar and syntax
Dialects
Vocabulary
Morphology
Writing systems
Spanish 1 tutoring allows your child to learn the language through many different methods. Your child's tutor may use the simulated immersion method of teaching. Through this method, the tutor will do all that they can to keep you submerged in the language. They can speak to you in Spanish throughout the entire session and help you do so as well. They may also introduce you to the music and text of the language to further your exposure to it. Next, Spanish 1 tutoring can help your child learn many skills even if they aren't directly related to the language. For instance, learning any language requires listening and reading comprehension skills. These are skills that you will be able to apply to learning Spanish and to other subjects in the future.
Spanish 1 tutoring allows your child to get personalized attention that isn't always available in the classroom. Your tutor can get to know you and how you learn the best. They can write custom lesson plans that use the teaching method that they respond to the most. For example, if your child is a hands-on learner, the tutor may create games and assign projects that keep them engaged. Likewise, if they are visual learners, the tutor may create flashcards or show them videos that relate to the topic that is being taught at the time. There are many other teaching aids that tutors may use.
