Renai Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I would want lots of opportunity to both hear and speak Spanish. Reading and writing can be studied as homework quite easily without anyone else around if need be (though the student does need to see and hear words together, too, to make the right connections between spoken and written), but learning to hear and speak it in return requires live practice (not just repeating back what recordings say). Students need to learn how to understand the words in regular use, spoken by a variety of people, often not using the perfect grammar and diction of the materials studied. No matter how the class is organized, it won't teach the students much if they can't practice hearing and speaking in actual conversation and dialog. I really got into a show called El Internado de la Laguna Negra (if I haven't forgotten something in the name), basically the Black Lagoon Boarding School. It's a show out of Spain that I came across on Netflix. They had English subtitles so I could really enjoy the story, but hearing the Spanish (Castilian, I think) spoken over and over was starting to give me a clue -- I thought I was actually starting to pick up some of the phrasing near the end. Ordinarily I would have trouble picking individual words apart because I was unused to the syllabication, but I was starting to get the hang of it despite their rapid speech. Watching shows like this can really help someone who is struggling with the hearing part get in more practice. I personally think we can't learn to effectively speak a language without learning how to hear the language, and the hearing at times has to be a little ahead of the speaking. This is a lot how I run my conversation class, but it's topical. Each week, I've posted different videos (according to topic) from basic vocabulary to more advanced listening with and without subtitles, and maybe some grammar points. I expect them to watch before class, but many don't. The class is for listening and speaking practice. I have so many that have not ever taken a class, or are currently in their first class, that few speak up though. I start out with me talking about the topic in Spanish. I've learned to speak slower... Then I turn the floor over to them. They'll usually ask questions first in chat (which really clues me in on who watched videos and who didn't) for some vocabulary or "how do you say" stuff, then begin talking more to one another in Spanish. Lately, I've just been listening and correcting vocabulary or grammar, writing on the whiteboard different points. I'll also ask different questions if the conversation stalls, and give a short spiel as an example answer. This is a free online class I do, so I would expect that someone would expect more if they're paying. I learned Spanish in college watching Destinos one year. The next year, I met dh and didn't understand him (much). I watched this novela with him every day, and I picked up a lot within context. Since he couldn't translate to English, he had to give me the kindergarten level word for the adult-level word I didn't understand. It was the best way to learn for me. I don't know how others learn, but I want a level of immersion in my classes, because I imagine that is what many homeschoolers are missing in language studies at home.

Ellie Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 So, the teacher of my current hula class has asked me to take it. That would be two classes: a beginner class and a more experienced class. It would begin in January.

Junie Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Those are fighting words where I live, too. Cuando sus vecinos con pistolas dicen son luminarias, son luminarias. Si es una gringa estupida como yo...puedo decir luminaries. Por eso la gente en Nuevo Mexico no les gusta la gente de Texas. Y no eres estupida. No mas, recuerdas que cuando vienes a visitarme, dice farolitos. Creo que entiendo, mas o menos. (I don't think that phrase is exactly right, but Renai promised she wouldn't laugh at me... My reading comprehension is much better than my speaking/listening ability.) So, I'm considering teaching a (or more) Spanish course(s) from home next year. I don't know how to teach Spanish to those that don't know it. The closest I've come is this year doing a conversation course with mostly high school students, in which I'm mostly facilitating. I don't know anything about learn-Spanish curriculum or how to teach grammar. My current class we are learning the grammar and vocabulary through the various topics they have chosen. Basically, I know how to teach Spanish to Spanish speakers (prek through adult) because that's what Ive done the past few years. So why even consider it? I'm thinking a literature-based class, and learning through books. Of course, that would be a higher-level course. Or, even a CLEP-prep course, as I may be doing that with dd16 this upcoming semester. I can also do a conversation class to run alongside the class(es) I do. The company says they are looking for Spanish teachers for all ages though, so I'm not sure how that idea would work. I can do lower-level stuff too, but nothing grammar-based. I just don't know it that well. I'd have to study. Who has time for that??? If ya'll could choose a live online Spanish class, what would you want to see in it? There are a lot of grammar-based options out there, so perhaps something different is needed. If you'd like grammar however, say so as well. I'm teaching Spanish 1 to ds15 and dd13. I recently took the practice CLEP test and earned a high enough score to pass 4 semesters of Spanish at our local cc. (I was surprised that I remembered that much from high school.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lots of little ducklings Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I've seen several. I've been diagnosed with over 10 different things, most of which I don't have any symptoms for. The closest match was autism, but while the symptoms matched the explanation was wrong. Once a doctor started explaining how autism worked I knew it wasn't right. I've been diagnosed with schizophrenia and borderline personality disorder despite the fact that my only symptoms are an inability to hear or see properly. Eta: And I'm very awkward. Dr. Quack diagnosed you. Remember? So now you know. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your mom....well, nothing positive to say there. Worst.story.ever. She sucks. They would, but I don't want their hands on her, nor do I want to have to pay for it. They are expensive, however, everything is done out front (except bathing) so you can see what is being done to the dogs. I think that is a good deal. One of the bball parents runs a dog grooming shop so I could probably have her help me, but I'm lazy and that lady is a non stop talker so I cannot abide by it. :lol: Kroger has a store brand organic pn butter that is no stir. That's what we eat. For cookies, I buy cheap stuff, though. Life's too short to spend it stirring pn butter. I love Lost! I used to groom the maltese myself. I got some decent clippers on amazon.com. I would sometimes groom new Humane Society dogs. I did okay-ish. They looked better when I was done. :) I'm cheap, too. Wow.

They'll usually ask questions first in chat (which really clues me in on who watched videos and who didn't) for some vocabulary or "how do you say" stuff, then begin talking more to one another in Spanish. Lately, I've just been listening and correcting vocabulary or grammar, writing on the whiteboard different points. I'll also ask different questions if the conversation stalls, and give a short spiel as an example answer. This is a free online class I do, so I would expect that someone would expect more if they're paying. I learned Spanish in college watching Destinos one year. The next year, I met dh and didn't understand him (much). I watched this novela with him every day, and I picked up a lot within context. Since he couldn't translate to English, he had to give me the kindergarten level word for the adult-level word I didn't understand. It was the best way to learn for me. I don't know how others learn, but I want a level of immersion in my classes, because I imagine that is what many homeschoolers are missing in language studies at home. You are right, many homeschoolers do miss the immersion. So do many brick & mortar school kids. Many of the classes in schools, especially grades earlier than high school, teach Spanish or another foreign language one period a week. My kids went through years of this (grade school Spanish), and while they know the words for certain nouns, colors, and verbs they can't formulate any sentences on their own. They can often figure out what a sentence given in Spanish means if it's written down or someone speaks it slower than usual talking speed, but they can't compose the proper grammar to write or speak without faltering. (They do enjoy correcting my pronunciation of the words they know, though!) High school language classes do go far past this, but by that age many of the kids have missed their brain-development window in which learning languages comes easily. I think this is why some kids who reach high school with a poor education in their own native language continue to struggle more than expected when they do get into a class that will teach them what they are missing, so think how hard it can be to learn a different language altogether. They are at an age where they still need lots of hand-holding while they learn new and strange (to them) stuff, but they also wish to be more independent and don't want to have to rely on authority (some to the point they resist just to assert themselves). Teens often need more than a requirement for certain types of credit or grades to get them to apply themselves in a language class -- they need an interest, a personal reason for actually trying to learn the subject. If you can manage it getting a student who is personable yet better versed in the language could help get the other teens going. Basically this student would be a plant, a secret employee working the class. They can say they are there to gain more practice, which the other students should buy readily, but they can step forward -- in the role of fellow student -- and start discussions when the other students are hesitating. They can be the chum the others feel they can ask when they don't want to ask the teacher. By the way, this also works with adults. Sometimes we just need someone not in authority to give us a boost and get us started. The teacher has authority, and we adults, just like teens, can be a bit self-conscious about displaying our perceived inadequacies. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
