Spanish for beginners: Grammar, phonetics and pragmatics in a course accompanied by a cool teacher.
Spanish is the second most popular language in the world with 486 million speakers. Migration movements and international job offers have made Spanish one of the key requirements for achieving good communication with others. However, due to its linguistic characteristics, learning Spanish can be a bit of a difficult task. In this course I invite you to take a first approach to Spanish through specific communicative situations and personalized classes that I will adapt to your needs. As a teacher of Spanish and Latin American Literature with more than eight years of experience, I have developed the ability to understand the demands of my students and create teaching proposals that allow them to overcome their difficulties. Furthermore, as a student of other languages such as English, German and Italian, I have learned the importance of patience in second language learning situations and also how frustrating it can be at times. For this reason, I offer you a course in which I will accompany you to explore Spanish with a thorough and personalized follow-up of your learning path. Humor, didactics, grammar and literature are combined in this course so that you can acquire a new tool that is not only linguistic but also cultural and powerful for your mental health. I hope you enjoy it

"Wanderlust and Discovery: A Journey Through Diverse Destinations and Cultures Around the Globe"
This lesson focuses on how travelling and exploring new places can be engaging and educational, encouraging students to develop practical language skills while discussing an exciting, universally appealing theme. This lesson aims to build vocabulary, enhance conversational skills, and foster cultural awareness through a variety of activities. The lesson begins with a warm-up activity where students are asked to share their dream travel destinations. This quick introductory discussion not only generates excitement but also encourages students to express personal interests, setting a conversational tone for the class. Following this, the teacher introduces key travel-related vocabulary, such as "itinerary," "landmarks," "budget," and "accommodation." By matching definitions with examples, students reinforce their understanding of these terms in a travel context, providing a foundation for subsequent activities. Next, students participate in a structured group discussion, where they describe a memorable travel experience or a place they aspire to visit. This exercise allows students to apply their newly acquired vocabulary, narrate experiences, and practice descriptive language. The class then transitions to a collaborative role-play activity: students work in small groups to create a travel itinerary for a destination of their choice. Each group selects activities, accommodation types, and budgets, simulating real-life trip planning and promoting teamwork. To diversify the lesson and incorporate listening skills, an optional component involves listening to a travel blog or vlog, where students identify the speaker’s destination, key activities, and cultural highlights. This element enhances comprehension and further immerses students in authentic language use related to travel. The lesson concludes with a brief reflection, allowing students to share their thoughts on the destinations discussed. By blending vocabulary, discussion, role-play, and listening activities, this lesson provides a holistic approach to language learning, equipping students with the linguistic tools and confidence to discuss travel experiences, and cultivating a broader understanding of diverse cultures.
