Louisville Spanish Tutoring FAQ

If your goal is to improve your speaking and comprehension skills in Spanish or get some help for your student, Varsity Tutors can set you up with a great Louisville Spanish tutor. You might be studying at a school like Bellarmine University or the University of Louisville or your student might be hoping to do so one day. You might be a professional looking to seek out new clients or land a new job with a group that does a great deal of business in Spanish-speaking countries. You might be planning a vacation to Madrid. No matter what the situation, if you're looking to strengthen your Spanish, working with a private instructor can help.

What are the advantages of engaging the services of a Louisville Spanish tutor near me?

There are a number of benefits to finding a Louisville Spanish tutor. One of the biggest benefits is that you can have access to an expert in the language. If you don't have previous exposure to Romance languages, there are elements of Spanish that might seem strange. For instance, nouns are gendered, and this can be hard to get used to for those whose first language is English. There are rules related to suffixes that help determine the gender of these nouns, but as usually is the case with most rules, they come with exceptions and require a good amount of studying. It's the same with verb conjugation. Here, too, gender and pluralities matter, too. There are rules that govern spellings for -er, -ir, and -ar verbs in five relevant tenses.

If that all sounds complex, you're not wrong. This is where having an instructor on your side can be helpful. They know the language deeply. They can help break down the rules and how they interact, and if you find yourself hitting a wall, they can present them in different ways until they make sense. They can quiz you on the meanings of different words until you have them memorized. They can aid you in understanding different kinds of accent marks, why they're placed where they are, and make sure not to let you slide as you get ready for your classes, knowing your teacher won't either. This sort of one-on-one review can deepen your understanding and is often hard to get in a traditional classroom.

Learning a language isn't just about knowing how words are spelled and what the grammatical rules are, though. It's about how to use those words and rules in an actual conversation. This is another upside of working with Louisville Spanish tutors. Verbal training might be the most difficult part of learning Spanish. Much like in learning any other language, you have to take into consideration things like slang, colloquialisms, and different sorts of dialects. For instance, just like the English taught to someone in an ESL class is very different than what they might hear on television, the Spanish you learn from a textbook is likely very different from what you might hear on the streets of Spain. Improving your ability to follow and engage in spoken conversational Spanish is essential to preparing for oral exams, traveling to nations where the primary language spoken is Spanish, applying for positions where the company does a lot of business with Spanish-speaking companies, or attempting to expand your firm into Spanish-speaking nations. This is especially relevant for high school students preparing for college, where courses may be taught almost completely in Spanish and students are expected to keep up.

With Louisville Spanish tutoring, you get the chance to practice the kind of conversational Spanish skills you'll need in the future. Whether in-person or using video chat via the Live Learning Platform, you can sharpen your skills and get comfortable with real-time translation and response. During all of this, your Louisville Spanish tutor can help you course-correct in real-time, stopping bad habits from taking hold. This is hard to do in a traditional classroom, where practice with pronunciation typically takes place in an almost chorus-like setting. If you're using the Live Learning Platform, you have an opportunity to record your sessions and go back to rewatch them in order to reflect on the lessons at your own convenience. Louisville Spanish tutors can also give you assignments to complete on your own time, like watching and summarizing Spanish popular media, that help you acclimate to the pace of exchanges and get used to a variety of different accents and idioms.

Another benefit to Louisville Spanish tutoring is that the lessons can be customized to your learning preferences. Research has demonstrated that students prefer to learn in different ways, and when the instruction takes that into account, students focus more and interact with the lessons more intently, leading to better memory retention. Some students, for example, are more active learners, preferring to learn via repetition of application of an idea, while other students are more reflective, preferring to evaluate ideas in order to gain an understanding of how they work. In these cases, an active learner in Louisville Spanish tutoring might prefer to repeatedly apply the conjugation rules of -ar verbs to a a list of them, while a reflective learner might like to compare those rules to the rules governing conjugation of -er and -ir verbs, or be assessed on their ability to explain those differences. Adaptation to these learning styles might be too difficult in a classroom full of students, but with a Louisville Spanish tutor, they can zero in on learning what you prefer and making it all about your needs.

Recent Louisville Spanish Tutoring Session Notes

Spanish Tutoring review by Katherine in Louisville, KY
The student is definitely a quick learner with Spanish! His introduction was very fluent today and he was able to adapt it a bit each time to fit the flow of conversation. Today, we added more specific information about him and his girlfriend into an introduction conversation. We included information that would be relevant to a situation he may encounter and with information related to his city. We chunked it by question/ topic and at the end rehearsed the entire conversation a few times. He is making great progress! He will practice this conversation and new vocabulary learned so we can add to it in our next session.

Spanish Tutoring review by Laura in Louisville, KY
We worked on number and gender agreement and some vocabulary. We also worked on the preposition "a." The student is a beginner but understands quickly. He has a very good attitude towards the class and focuses very well. He has some extra practice -- some exercises and some vocabulary+verbs to memorize.

Spanish Tutoring review by Erin in Louisville, KY
We reviewed some of the stuff we have done before such as accentuation, ir + a + infinitive, and I asked the student about different activities, whether she liked or disliked them, practicing gustar. We reviewed time. Then we went over the days of the week and the months of the year and talked about the dates of different holidays (fechas). I introduced the structure of possessives to her. She did very well considering how theoretical the topic is. She took a lot of notes, and we are going to practice. For homework, she is going to prepare an introduction of someone where she tells me their name, where they're from, how old they are, and how they feel in Spanish.

Spanish Tutoring review by Lizeth in Louisville, KY
Today we continued practicing the numbers but this time we combined them with the question "cuanto cuesta" or how much does it cost. Both students learned it so fast that we could review some vocabulary and practice verbally, I am going to send them more exercises so they can learn more vocabulary. They didn't struggle a lot with orthography which is good, they just have some spelling mistakes that we corrected at the moment.

Spanish Tutoring review by Dylan in Louisville, KY
We drilled and studied the use of gerunds in Spanish. We also outlined new verbs to use and described the difference between este/ esta, esto/ eso, etc. Most time was spent really ensuring that the use and understanding of gerunds was strong; we left on a really good place with that.

Spanish Tutoring review by Chelsea in Louisville, KY
The student and I began the session reviewing her practice work. We reviewed conjugating verbs in the present tense and some unfamiliar vocabulary. We also worked on conjugating and uses of gustar along with a por vs. para practice sheet. The remainder of the session was spent reviewing the preterite tense verb conjugations. Practice work was assigned to continue working on this concept. We spent the last 10 minutes of the session practicing some conversational Spanish, which assisted in learning new vocabulary in addition to formulating sentences. The student was very focused and eager to cover new topics. Overall it was a very productive session.
