Spanish Classes for Teens
March 2010
Can anyone recommend a good program for teens for this summer to
practice conversational spanish?
Yes! A fantastic small school run by native speakers, my son did a 2
hour class 4-5 days a week for 4 weeks and not only learned to speak,
but covered an entire year of high school spanish curriculum, allowing
him to move ahead a year. Classes were small, mixed teens and adults,
or just teens (about 4-5 people/class), 2 week sessions, but they will
allow you to tailor a program to your needs. It's called the
mesoamerica institute in berkeley. http://www.mesoamerica.org/
They're just great!

I am looking for Spanish lessons/classes for a 13 year old
as an activity this summer. (It does not have to be a day
or sleep away camp/vacation at this point. Just lessons).
Or, does anyone know of anything such as College for Kids
that might offer something like this? He will be entering
8th grade. Thank you!

Centro Latino on San Pablo in Berkeley (near Dwight Way)
offers Spanish classes all year round for kids and adults.
They have a more intensive program over the summer. The
classes are small and the teachers seem to be very good. I
took a class from Teresa and she was so positive and
encouraging! I encourage you to check them out.

My son has had poor Spanish preparation in middle school
and we'd like to prepare him for Spanish 3/4 in high school
in the fall. Any suggestions on classes and/or tutors who
could help him catch up over the summer? We already plan
to cap off the classes with an immersion program in Mexico,
so I'm already aware of programs abroad (but if you have
had an exceptionally good experience with one, especially
in Oaxaca, I'd like to hear about that, too). Thanks!
