If you're ready to take your Spanish speaking skills to the next level, Varsity Tutors is here to help get you signed up for the best Nashville Spanish lessons. Spanish is the second most spoken language in the world as well as in the United States. Considered one of the Romance languages, it derives much of its rules and grammar from Latin. About 75% of Spanish words have Latin roots. It was brought to the Americas in the 16th and 17th century and quickly spread throughout North, Central, and South America, as well as the Caribbean. It has 430 million native speakers around the world and is the official language of about 20 countries. It is also the most studied language in the United States.
There are a lot of reasons to study Spanish. If you are a student attending John Overton Comprehensive High School or McGavock High School, you might need to take several foreign language credits in order to graduate. Students at a postsecondary school such as Belmont University or Vanderbilt University may also be required to earn foreign language credits depending on the degree program they are in.
Professionals hoping to advance their careers may wish to study Spanish as well. Being able to speak Spanish fluently can help you connect to the 45 million people in the United States who speak Spanish as their native or second language. These people are all potential customers and being able to effectively communicate can make give you an edge when applying to jobs. It can also open up opportunities for international travel for work.
If you're planning to take a trip to one of the many Spanish-speaking countries in the world, learning even a little bit of Spanish can be useful. Being able to interact with the people around you in an unfamiliar area is not only useful in helping you navigate but with being able to more fully appreciate the culture of the area you are visiting.
Whether you're a student needing to learn advanced skills or a traveler wanting to learn everyday words and phrases, Varsity Tutors can set you up with the right Nashville Spanish tutor or class to help you reach for your goals.
What are the skills or topics I can learn in Nashville Spanish lessons to help me learn the language?
Spanish is a gender-based language. Nouns have a feminine or masculine designation, generally based on how the word ends. There are exceptions to this rule, which must be memorized. Verb conjugation is also a skill you can work on in Spanish lessons. Getting the hang of irregular verbs is another topic you may receive extra assistance with. Your lessons can also assist you with mastering noun-adjective agreement. You can also spend time working on conversational skills with classmates. Any of these skills can be practiced with a private tutor or in one of our online classes.
What are the benefits of taking a class for my Nashville Spanish lessons?
Taking an online, interactive class is a great option for students who enjoy the socialization and collaboration of a traditional classroom. You'll be able to attend live sessions using an online learning platform that allows you to interact directly with your instructor just like you would if you were in the same room. You'll also be able to work with your classmates on group activities or participate in discussions on the topics and skills you're learning in your class. For example, you can work on your grammar skills, spelling, and reading skills in groups or have a class discussion about common topics of conversation. You can also take time to meet with your teacher individually in order to ask questions if you need some extra support about any specific aspects of the language that you're finding difficult to grasp.
You'll be able to choose between taking a 2-week and a 4-week class section. New sections begin every month and are offered at various times throughout the day. This should make it simple to fit Spanish lessons into a busy calendar.
How is working with a private Nashville Spanish tutor different than being in a class?
Working with a private Nashville Spanish tutor is a very different experience than being in a class. In a class, teachers create lesson plans with a large number of students in mind. With private instruction, you are the teacher's only student. Lessons are created specifically with your strengths, weaknesses, and preferred method of learning in mind. You also have the luxury of moving at your own pace. This means your study sessions can be more efficient. You won't have to spend time focusing on skills you've already mastered and can instead spend time reviewing the areas of the language you've been having a hard time understanding.
You can elect to meet with your instructor either online or in person. If you choose to meet online, you'll be able to access your sessions on our unique Live Learning Platform. This gives you access to face-to-face private lessons from anywhere with a computer and high-speed internet. If you choose to meet your instructor in person, you can meet at the time and location of your choice, whether that's in your home, at a local cafe, or in the local public library. This makes private instruction easy to fit in between classes, work, family activities, or other obligations.
How can I sign up to get started with Nashville Spanish lessons?
When you're ready to get started, all you have to do is call Varsity Tutors and speak with one of our Educational Consultants. We'll talk to you to determine your instructional and scheduling requirements and help you pick the best Spanish lesson opportunity for your particular needs. Once you've decided between a 2-week class, 4-week class, or private instruction, we'll walk you through the steps to get signed up.

I am a sophomore at Vanderbilt majoring in Child Development at the Peabody College of Education! I am passionate about teaching and learning. I am originally from Baltimore, Maryland and have been tutoring since my freshman year in high school! ... One of my favorite quotations about teaching by one of my idols, George Morris, says that if someone does not understand, "you either asked the wrong question, or you asked the question wrong." Although George Morris is referring to teaching horseback riding in this quotation, it deeply resonates with me for teaching academics. I strongly believe that the way that teachers frame lessons and questions is extremely powerful. I also believe in being critical of the way I ask questions and explain things to students.
