Courses and Teachers : Spanish
Q:
What do you like the most about teaching Spanish?
A:

To be able to share my passion about learning/teaching a foreign language and my culture, since it is so much more than that! Moreover, when I am teaching, I am also learning from my students. And when I see in their eyes or their reactions that they are having fun and enjoying the process, that’s even better ☺️


 
Q:
When did you start teaching Spanish?
A:

I actually started while I still was in university, so… more than 20 years ago. Time runs so fast


 
Q:
In your experience, what are the most common reasons for wanting to learn Spanish?
A:

It really depends on the student.

While very often students learning English they do for professional reasons, students choose Spanish for so many different reasons: because they want to travel to Latin America/Spain, or they already did and want to learn more, maybe they have another passion or leisure related to Hispanic culture (salsa, tango, food, cinema, etc.), of course for future access to different career paths, etc.


 
Q:
How difficult is it to learn Spanish, compared to other languages?
A:

It will depend on the student: their mother tongue, if they already have learned any other foreign language or even if they have several mother tongues.

I ,myself having learned several foreign languages, have found that each language has its own “easy access” points and “struggle a bit” points. It depends ☺️
