Private In-Home and Online Spanish Tutoring
Receive personally tailored Spanish lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with in-home and online tutoring that offers flexible scheduling and your choice of locations.Varsity Tutors can help you find a Raleigh-Durham Spanish tutor for you or your student. Raleigh-Durham Spanish tutoring can help students and professionals of all levels better understand the Spanish language, so it's ideal whether you are learning Spanish for the first time or you want to brush up on the skills that you already have.
How Can a Raleigh-Durham Spanish Tutor Near Me Help Me Become More Fluent?
Spanish is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world. It is the primary language of 20 countries, and it is spoken by 470 to 500 million people worldwide. It's also considered one of the easiest languages for a native English speaker to learn, and it can give you an advantage if you want to learn the other Romance languages. Still, learning a second language is always a challenge, even if it's an "easier" language such as Spanish. That is why it can be so helpful to seek out some extra help from a private instructor.
Raleigh-Durham Spanish tutors can help you or your student in many different ways. Students at Duke University or North Carolina State University who are taking Spanish courses to fulfill a graduation requirement can receive some extra one-on-one help as they study for their next exam, and business professionals can brush up on their Spanish-speaking skills before a trip overseas. Even someone who simply wants to be able to communicate better with the Spanish-speaking population in their area can benefit from studying with a Raleigh-Durham Spanish tutor. No matter what your goals may be, your instructor can work with you to develop a customized lesson plan that will allow you to work at your own pace and ask for help whenever you need it.
Naturally, Raleigh-Durham Spanish tutors can help you or your student with some of the more challenging aspects of the Spanish language. For example, Spanish is a gendered language, which means that nouns are either masculine or feminine. Most of the time, masculine nouns end on "o," while feminine nouns end in "a." The articles that you use for a noun will depend on its gender. Masculine nouns are preceded by "el," while feminine nouns are preceded by "la." This is already different from English, but it gets more confusing when you consider that there are exceptions to these rules that need to be memorized. A good Spanish instructor can help you remember these rules as well as any grammar and vocabulary that might prove difficult for you or your student.
Immersion is another important part of learning a new language, and working with a Raleigh-Durham Spanish tutor can provide you with that. While a beginning Spanish student might feel more comfortable working with an instructor who still mostly speaks English, they will eventually need to get comfortable holding conversations in Spanish. Your instructor will provide you with plenty of opportunities to converse in Spanish whether you decide to meet with them in person or online. This can be done at your own pace of course, but it is an important part of Raleigh-Durham Spanish tutoring and has been known to help almost any student progress in their studies.
How Can I Fit Raleigh-Durham Spanish Tutoring into My Schedule?
We know how difficult it is to find any kind of private instruction into a busy schedule, which is why we try to make it as flexible for you or your student as possible. We do the work to find a qualified Spanish instructor who is available to provide instruction when it is the most convenient for the student. Again, the student works at their own pace, so they should be able to work around their other commitments.
You will also have the option of either meeting with an instructor in person or online. If you decide to meet in person, you will be able to do so anywhere where you feel comfortable. Instructors can travel to the student's home for a study session, or they can meet in a library or cafe if that would be more convenient. If you decide to have your study sessions online, you will be able to make use of a Live Learning Platform that has features such as session recording, a shared document editor, a virtual whiteboard, video chat, and integrated practice problems. Naturally, you will be able to log into the Live Learning Platform from anywhere you have a reliable computer and a stable wi-fi connection. Since you won't have to worry about commuting to another location for your study sessions, you won't have to worry about missing any due to illness or traffic.
It's also worth mentioning that Varsity Tutors can also enroll students in online Spanish classes if they would rather work with other students at their level. These classes allow students to log into a virtual classroom and interact with each other as a qualified instructor leads them in lectures and learning activities. They will also be able to converse with their fellow students in Spanish for an extra level of integration. As an additional benefit, the instructor will be available for one-on-one assistance should you ever feel like you need it.

Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
The student and I read La camisa de Margarita Pareja today. She did very well with reading out loud and understanding what was happening in the story. She also used a glossary and dictionary to look up words she did not understand. For next time. we will read another short story called La noche boca arriba. We have decided to begin with short stories and then possibly move on to a longer piece of literature. This was my first session with this student.

We did our review of concepts that we have learned so far. We learned new vocabulary concentrated on family members. We practiced our new vocabulary by doing different activities. We learned the conjugation of the verb tener and we did practice activities with that as well. The lesson ended with an assignment for the students to do as homework. The lesson went really well with no issues.

We reviewed verb conjugation in the present and preterite tense. Next, we went into the kitchen and practiced conversing in Spanish. I would pretend to only understand Spanish, and the student would have to find different ways to use her vocabulary to communicate. Then, we introduced the idea of the imperfect tense and how it differs from the preterite in Spanish. We practiced using both tenses with the expression, "Iba a ___, pero ____." She has materials she can access online to practice verb conjugations before our next session.

We learned the hours, and Student K understood really quickly so we played a game to practice regular verbs. With Student J I reviewed the homework and then we moved to the hours but he wanted to play a little bit so our practice was slower. I am going to send them exercises so they can practice more.
