It has been easy to retain the words. The voice with the words is the most helpful. Starting the way the course is designed is the best way for starting out in small steps towards real sentences.The pace is directed by me so it should be easy to stay relaxed and focused. The games and flashcards make me feel confident at the end of the lessons. This my first online course and it has met all my expectations Thanks, and keep in touch.
I am enjoying this class. I have been extremely busy with my teaching and will donate more time in the summer. That is my only regret---Is have been busy with work!
I am using the Spanish as a second grade teacher who is obtaining a masters degree as an English Language Acquisition teacher. I use it by talking to younger children in the pasillo (hallway). I was glad when I get the email reminding me that I hadn't used the site in a couple of weeks. It kept my task in front of me.
I work in a District with many Spanish speakers. It is imperative that I can understand parents, and that they can understand me. As I continue taking this course my confidence builds and I use what I have learned more and more.
I am learning medical Spanish for my job and to possibly help as a nurse in a third world country during a working "vacation". I love the word of the day. This is just what I was looking for, a course that helps me right away at work.
