Unimos por el amor del juego

Quiero incluir unos buenos recursos relacionados al fútbol durante la Copa Mundial 2018:

1) Vocabulario acerca del juego.

2) Los equipos, estadísticas, reportaje, etc. de FIFA.

3) Un artículo y videos (bajo las pestañas 'Multimedia' y 'Viaja') para escuchar/ver en español.

¡Espero que disfruten los partidos y aprendan algo nuevo!

¡Saludos!

I, Stephanie, hail from Denver, Colorado but have traveled & lived in various Spanish-speaking countries such as Mexico, Ecuador, Colombia, Spain & Cuba. One of my favorite cities is Portland where I enjoy exploring the urban landscape via my bike.

I hold a B.A. degree from Santa Clara University (2001) & an M.A. degree from Portland State University (2009), both in Spanish Language & Literature. I have over 15 years experience teaching all ages (in classrooms & privately) from beginning to advanced levels.

I believe that learning is best achieved in a calm, relaxed & comfortable environment where we can be ourselves & explore the intricacies of learning Spanish & how to communicate most effectively within it. A sense of humor, taking linguistic risks & intuition are all invaluable qualities that will make our lessons a success. I most enjoy working one-on-one or in small groups of motivated individuals.

Whatever your goals may be in learning Spanish, I am confident we can do it juntos!

. Services .

I prefer meeting individuals in quiet spaces such as library study rooms or low-key coffee shops. Online video via Zoom is also an option.

I am currently tutoring intermediate-advanced students only. Our sessions can be purely conversational or include activities such as puzzles, written articles, photo shares, mock interviews, film discussions, grammar, pronunciation, verb & vocabulary practice as well as card & board games.

I also work with any age/grade school or university student who needs an extra boost in their clase de español.

. References .

Some of my favorite & most used/trusted resources:

Word Reference (I find the 'Forum Discussions' especially helpful for more nuanced explanations).

Real Academia (for advanced learners to read about linguistic issues & use THE OFFICIAL Spanish dictionary).

Medical Spanish (see tabs 'Learning Resources' & 'Spanish Medical Dictionary').

Pig Quiz (I like the simplicity of these tests--verbs only).

News In Slow Spanish (great for pronunciation).

KBOO (programs 'Buscando America,' 'La voz de la comunidad' y 'Domingos para recordar').

El Resto Es Mio (a friend from Ecuador inspires me with his commentary & photography).
