Spanish (and Italian) Tutor for Spanish 1 and Spanish 2

Daniel S.

I grew up as an American living in Italy from age 2 to age 18. I attended Italian public school taught in Italian and I am 100% fluent in Italian.

In high school I attended a language focused high school where I studied English as a foreign language (which I already was fluent in from my parents and time spent in the USA) and I also studied Spanish and German. German I did not retain much of, just some phrases and random vocabulary. Spanish on the other hand I picked up, practiced a lot during my travels and became fluent in.

In college I returned to the United States and I continued using my Spanish with Central and South American friends and while traveling. I also minored in Teaching English as a Foreign Language with a professor who spoke fluent Spanish, continuing my practice and love for this language.

I currently teach Spanish 1 and Spanish 2 for high school students at a private home school co-op. Here we focus on vocabulary, conversation and pronunciation, as well as reading, writing and grammar. Grammar ranges from sentence structure, to verb tenses and special rules.

I also keep up with my Italian when talking with family and high school friends. Honestly, however, after 16 of my formative years spent there, I don't believe I could lose this if I tried!

As for computer skills, I've always had a knack for it. I am especially proficient in the Microsoft Suite, Apple software, Google suite, Mailchimp and Constant Contact and other general computers. I sometimes help elderly clients with small computer tasks. Happy to help!
