I thoroughly enjoyed this class as it was geared to our specific needs with vocabulary and practicing conversations related to my teaching position.

This class was incredibly helpful. The course provided me with specific vocabulary needed to communicate behaviors and academics with parents. I was able to apply new vocabulary and grammar in parent teacher conferences, and it gave me greater confidence in my ability to communicate and connect with parents. Leslie is a wonderful and energetic instructor. She is passionate about teaching Spanish and is incredibly supportive. She took extra time to teach me vocabulary specific to my class and grade level. This course is definitely worth taking!
