Lessons will run face-to-face in Crosby.
What have you done today? Have you eaten a nice meal or had a dip in the pool? This course focuses on the present perfect tense using typical holiday situations. Get ready to share your favourite travel memories!
This course is suitable for people who are familiar with the present and future tenses and are ready to start learning to use verbs in the past. By the end of the course you will be able to:
• use the present perfect “I have been, I have done” to talk about your experiences
• Use object pronouns to say things like “I told her”, “I bought it”
• Be confident using verbs like “gustar”, “encantar”
There are no exams and there is no compulsory homework for this course. We focus on communication, not perfection! We aim to build people’s confidence with speaking and listening in Spanish.
The course will start on Thursday 16th January 2025 and run for 9 more weeks with a break for half term (20th February). The course costs £165 for 10x 75 min lessons. Please pay a deposit of £50 to reserve your place. I kindly ask that full fees are paid before the first class.
I am passionate about languages and studied French and Spanish at Cambridge University. I am now a qualified Modern Foreign Languages teacher at secondary level and have experience of teaching primary level languages all the way up to A level.
I love visiting new places and have spent time travelling around and volunteering in South America. Whenever I go to a new place I always try to have a go at the local language and can often be found clutching my phrase book with a look of polite terror as the person I am talking to replies to my question at top speed! As a result I am able to empathise with learners who feel nervous about speaking in front of others or who have had similar experiences with languages on holiday.
Whether you are starting from scratch, dusting off your high school French and Spanish or perfecting your language skills, Language for Fun classes provide a supportive and relaxed environment to learn and have fun. I hope you will join us!
