Whether you are looking for help with your language requirement courses at a nearby school such as Francis Lewis High School or Barnard College, or you are studying a second language to help you reach for business or personal goals, 51Թ can help by getting you enrolled in New York City Spanish lessons. Many students at area schools like Benjamin N. Cardozo High School are expected to complete a language course for their general education requirements, and Spanish is a common choice. Learning a new language can be daunting, and the classroom time and curriculum may not give you adequate practice to get comfortable with your language skills. Additional practice with a highly qualified instructor could be what you need to learn more efficiently.
Spanish is the second most commonly spoken language in the United States and in the world. It is the official language of around 20 countries and has over 430 million native speakers. Fluency in this language could potentially give you an edge in the business world, with many companies preferring bilingual applicants as international connections and technology continue to grow. Aside from the professional benefits, learning a second language could be beneficial for travel and for learning other languages in the future.
Regardless of whether you are looking to start with the basics of Spanish or you are in a more advanced language class, like the ones offered at New York University, you can find the right study option for your needs. 51Թ can get you set up with two types of Spanish lessons: group courses or private tutoring. You may even find that a combination of both is the right fit for you. Whichever you choose, you can be sure you will receive comprehensive lessons with an expert teacher.
What type of concepts will be covered in New York City Spanish lessons?
Spanish is a Romance language with strong Latin roots and Greek and Arabic influences. While it is considered one of the easiest second languages for native English speakers to learn, there are many unfamiliar grammar and structure concepts to remember. Gendered nouns will be one new skill you will face, and there will be exceptions to the gender assignment rule that must be memorized. There are also exceptions to be memorized in verb conjugation. You will want to get a strong grasp on the pronunciation and will have to learn some new written accents. There is also noun-adjective pairing, in which adjectives will change to match their nouns in both number and gender.
A lack of practice is one of the most common obstacles to learning a second language. New York City Spanish lessons held in groups give you the opportunity to participate in activities and regular discussions. This type of consistent exposure to the language can help increase your fluency. Depending on your proficiency level, your group instructor may even choose immersive language teaching and lead the entire course in Spanish. This type of lesson plan can help students that are already familiar with the basics of the language pick up new words in context and become more confident in their communication skills.
If you would prefer a more individualized approach to your learning, working with a New York City Spanish tutor could be the right option for you. When you work one-on-one with an instructor, you have the ability to spend as much time as you need on any of the more difficult concepts you face. Maybe you need a little more practice on pronunciation or you need to focus on the exceptions to the gendered nouns. You would have the opportunity to customize your lesson plans to cover what you need, without spending time on topics that you already feel comfortable in. Your tutor could also get to know your strengths and challenges and build a study session that works with your learning style in mind.
How do the different options of New York City Spanish lessons work?
Regular practice is vital to successfully learning a second language and it can be daunting to plan for the extra time and effort you will need to put in. That is why we make it easy to fit a New York City Spanish lesson into your busy schedule. There are new group class sessions that start each month, and they are held at a variety of times. Whether you are looking for an evening class, weekend class, or even one to fit into your lunch hour, you are sure to find the right one. The convenience of the virtual classroom means you do not have to try to fit an extra commute into your day either.
The group classes are fully interactive so you get the benefits of participating in conversational practice while getting immediate feedback from your experienced instructor. These group courses offer a well-rounded review of the language so you can practice your Spanish speaking, reading, and writing. If you find yourself needing a little more clarification on a certain concept, you can reserve one-on-one time with your instructor to go over things a little more in-depth.
If you feel that working with a New York City tutor would be a better fit for your needs, we can help get you set up with a qualified, independent instructor. Private tutoring is a great choice for students that are looking to focus on a few more detailed areas of concern, as you get the ability to customize the sessions to focus on your goals alone. If you choose individual sessions, you have the option of meeting your instructor online or in person. If you choose the convenient online option, you will meet your private mentor on our Live Learning Platform and use video chat and a virtual whiteboard to complete your sessions. If you would rather meet in person, you can arrange to have the sessions at your home, at a nearby library, or another favorite study spot.
How do I get started with New York City Spanish lessons?
