Literature Courses in Mexico City
De casta le viene a nuestro idioma
Teacher: Martha Garcia (Mexico City)
Speaks English, Spanish, French
Aprende por qué hay personas que dicen "vistes" en vez de "viste". A que no sabes que ese NO es un error. ¿Por qué seguimos usando la "h"? ¿Por qué tenemos acentos tan diferentes? ¿Miguel Hidalgo seseaba al hablar? ¿Qué vicisitudes enfrentó Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz por ser poco recatada?
+ MoreUtilizo la inducción en vez de la deducción; esto quiere decir que te doy un ejemplo práctico y, a partir de él tú induces la teoría general; contrario a la manera en la que suelen darse las clases. Es la manera más sencilla de aprender bien.
