those who have already learned a few tenses and who will appreciate a bit more practise in them before moving on to a couple more towards the end of the unit.
The tenses my current learners have already done are:
Now it is time to tackle the subjunctive! The module we will be covering does just that…but in a fun way! Señor Subjunctivo is a detective who will be solving a crime as we go through the lessons. There will be lots of new vocabulary and expressions too.
If you ever did an A Level in the past without going on to study Spanish at university and feel that you have forgotten a bit (but not too much), this is a good level to come back in at.
Since my first of many twinning exchange trips to the Loire Valley in France and to the Ruhr Valley in Germany in my teens, I have always loved foreign languages, cultures and people (and of course the food and drink too). As part of my university studies, I spent eight months in Lorraine on the border with Belgium and Luxembourg, four months in Nordrhein-Westfalen on the border with the Netherlands and four months in the city of Lyon. Having only started learning Spanish as an adult, I have not spent extensive amounts of time in Spain but I have holidayed there as well as in Peru. Before becoming a licencee with Language for Fun, I taught for twelve years in secondary schools, including one in Zambia near the border with French-speaking Congo. I have had many adventures in many Francophone, Germanophone and Hispanophone countries where my language 'skills' have both saved the day AND got me into a bit of hot water! Let me use MY cringeworthy past experiences of making hilarious mistakes save YOU from doing the same.
When I am not teaching or learning languages (I speak some Dutch and Italian now too), I enjoy swimming, reading and walking but I am particularly passionate about the performing arts; I think you will be able to tell this when you meet me! I look forward to meeting YOU!
