These are my responses to commonly asked questions. Feel free to talk with me personally about any these or any other question you or your parents might have.
When do you allow make up quizzes and exams?
Make up tests are given each Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday at 7:15 am. If you missed a quiz, but will be taking the Exam, you may take the quiz in class after completing the exam. All exams must be made up outside classtime, because we are involved in learning activities every day.Back to Top

Will I be fluent at the end of the course?
Fluency is build over a long period of time, and best developed when you are completely "immersed" in the language and culture. Your are communicating with others in their language constantly and do not have an English community with which to dialogue. This type of environment is difficult to replicate in the classroom where everyone are still in the language learnering stage.You can help your comprension ability by listening to Spanish TVbroadcasts, music, and seeking every opportunity to be exposed to the language outside the classroom setting. Attempt to use it a Mexican restaurants or to help out a Spanish speaker having difficulty in a store, for example. Don't be shy about using yourSpanish!!Back to Top
