The Spanish subjunctive is really not that bad, but it has a reputation for tripping up Spanish learners. Once you learn how and when to use it, it’s fun and your Spanish sounds more sophisticated!

In this Spanish Subjunctive Workshop you will finally understand how and when to use it AND you will implement it right away during class activities.

In Part 1: Present subjunctive, you will learn:

• Learn what it is and why it’s has such a bad stigma
• 3 necessary elements that necessitate its use
• How do you know when to use it. And how do you use it.
• Present tense subjunctive verb conjugations
• And- the most important part- you will practice using it immediately with a conversational partner as you complete activities together.

In Part 2 – Past Subjunctive, you will learn:

• Continue to learn how and when to use the Spanish subjunctive and determine in which contexts it is always,  sometimes, and never used.
• Learn 3 tips that trigger the past subjunctive
• Learn past tense subjunctive verb conjugations
• And of course, you will open your mouth and practice using it in small groups.

In part 3, you will learn:

• When to sometimes, always and never use the subjunctive
• Specific adverbial phrases to require the use of the subjunctive
• Some great acronyms to help you remember
• review present and past subjunctive verb conjugations
• And of course, you will open your mouth and practice using it in small groups.
