What material will a Jacksonville Spanish course cover?

Spanish is a Romance language - a set of languages based on Latin. Other examples of Romance languages include French, Italian, Portuguese, and Romanian. It is also a gender-based language, which means nouns are assigned specific genders based on certain rules. For example, if a noun ends in "a," it is usually a feminine noun. Some examples are señora (lady), guitarra (guitar), and gata (female cat). If the noun ends with "o," it is usually masculine. Some examples are señor (gentleman), zapato (shoe), and gato (male cat). As you continue with your studies in Spanish, you will learn exceptions to the rule and you just need to take note of those nouns.

You will also cover verb conjugation in Spanish. This is important because it will allow you to describe situations and events. Some of the verb forms in Spanish:

• regular - follows regular conjugation rules
• irregular - doesn't follow most normal ending patterns
• stem-changing - changes depending on how you use it in a sentence
• spelling-changing - has consonant-spelling variations in some forms to follow pronunciation rules
• reflexive - reflects the action back on the subject of the sentence

There is also adjective-noun pairing, which refers to how adjectives change depending on the number and gender of the noun they are modifying. Other important topics that you will learn in your Jacksonville Spanish class include pluralization, pronunciation, and written accents.

How will a Jacksonville Spanish course help me learn?

Varsity Tutors offers Spanish classes online, which makes it convenient for many students to start learning the language. With an online class, you don't need to think about how you can go to school or worry about how long it takes to get there. All you need is to log-on your computer and join your instructor and other students in our virtual classroom. The lessons will still be live and interactive - you can ask questions to the instructor and have the chance to practice speaking in your target language with your classmates. Our Spanish course lets you learn in a collaborative and supportive online classroom no matter what level you are in your language studies.

Though studying with a group can allow some students to learn concepts faster, there may be times when you may want to have more personalized attention from your instructor in order to ask more details about a problematic area in your study. If this happens, you can ask a one-on-one session with your instructor so that you can immediately address the topic that you cannot understand. This is actually a very helpful feature of the course because personalized attention may not be easily available in traditional language courses.

Learning a foreign language can be made easier and more effective if you are doing it with a trained and highly qualified teacher. All instructors who handle the language courses go through a rigorous interviewing and vetting process so that only those who really know how to teach the target language would be able to conduct classes. Language instructors for our courses are very passionate about what they do and excited to teach students not just the technical aspects of the language but also the nuances when it comes to certain ways of expressing thoughts and ideas in Spanish compared to English.
