Spanish for Educators

Deadline to enroll is May 15, 2024

Spanish for Educators
Our Spanish for Educators class is designed to bridge the gap between education workers and their Spanish speaking students. The course will help educators develop fundamental Spanish language and culture skills within the context of education. No prior Spanish experience is needed. Upon successful completion of the course, participants will receive a certificate of completion.

Class Structure
The class will be taught as an asynchronous online class. Students will be able to complete weekly work and assignments at their leisure, and will also have the option to meet with the teacher via Zoom each week to practice pronunciation or ask questions. Work will not be graded in the traditional sense, but students will receive regular feedback.

How Can Our Class Help You?
We will study the fundamentals of the Spanish language while focusing on vocabulary commonly needed in an educational setting. After covering basic greetings and essential classroom-related terms, we will develop practical Spanish skills for discussing matters related to discipline, special needs, safety, administrative tasks, and more. We will also explore the cultural norms of the Latino community and the experiences of Latino students in the US education system.
