Event Description

Morning Everyone,

I'm going to do it. Spanish classes will start the 2nd week in Aug.on Monday 10th. Classes will be 1 hour 3 times a week: M, W, Th. from 9:30-10:30 a.m. or from 7-8 p.m. They will run through the 2nd week in Dec. Class cost is $120/mo and $60 in Dec. There will be an initial $5 charge in Aug. for supplies. Classes will start up again the 2nd week in January. Classes will be recorded digitally for the RARE occasion that a class is missed.

You will need a Spanish dictionary (any size) clipboard and pencil. I need to find an overhead projector. I teach with art, song, GeoMundo (National Geographic in Spanish) and grammar.

All levels of Spanish will start together. Foundation is everything!

Learning a second language works the brain muscle and opens up new channels in the right side of the brain. It is known that stimulating the brain in this way greatly reduces memory loss, Alzheimer and loneliness (you'll be with US!). The right side of the brain is the intuitive creative side and that's what a GREAT psychologist (ok, me) teaches to through art, song, and game playing (you create the games in Spanish).

For homeschoolers let me know what the requirements are and we will meet them. For high school students, I can most likely set up a credentialed Spanish teacher (I was one) to review your work. This will cost extra for his/her participation. Find out if you can test out of the classes! College students can.

Enrollment must be made by Friday July 24. Enrollments consists of August's payment. Limit 20 students (about 10 each class).

Start planning a trip to Peru !



Gracias,
Valeria Solheim

I can only speak to my own experience. For most of my life I took the lead from my father and his cohorts in developing my worldview. When he died (a personal catastrophe), I took a few years to examine every aspect of my life -- including my values…

Hi Paul, Sorry for the delayed response. Life got way too busy in December. I'm out of town right now but will be back by January 1st. I'll call you to discuss what we did at the library and to see what we all can cultivate for 2010 in Colorado :)
