You are a fantastic group of educators that truly cares about the population you serve. It was super evident in your participation in the Spanish for Parent/Teacher conferences crash course.
It really was a crash course! In less than a week we went through at least 3 hours of super relevant and applicable vocabulary that you used right away. And because you contributed and there was so much interest in continuing, I have some next steps to tell you about. So, if you’ve been asking.. ” But, now what? ” Hit play and listen to my personal invitation.

You’ve got to hear how learning Spanish has helped this incredible 2nd grade teacher build a deeper connection with her students & families.
Listen to what Katie has to say about the impact of learning Spanish, her limiting beliefs that might have delayed her progress and her next steps…
“Learning Spanish has allowed me to have deeper relationships with my Spanish-speaking families. It’s opened up a dialogue that I normally would not have and it’s made me build those relationships where otherwise there would be a bit of a wall as I would have to rely on someone else to translate the information for me.”
“With my students, knowing Spanish has added another layer to the relationship.”
“Starting the first day of school when parents are walking their students up to class and I can greet them in Spanish, there is a sense of ease and comfort that comes across them. It let’s parents know that I’m not just invested in teaching their kids, but I’m invested in their child and family as a whole because I’m trying to communicate with them in their home language. “
When I asked Katie for her advice for other teachers that might be hesitant about learning Spanish for fear of making mistakes or not saying things perfectly, here is what she had to say to YOU…
“You just have to go for it! The families and students appreciate your effort so much.”
“Making mistakes is far less of a problem. Trying to communicate in their home language far outweighs the mistakes you may make.”
Just go for it like Katie did! Register for this Spanish 4 Teachers Masterclass TODAY!

FAQ’s–>Common Questions about this Masterclass
Time is one of the most valuable resources we have! I’m a teacher, mom, small business owner as well – I get it! Here are some answers to the questions that might be popping up for you…
Why does this cost $197? Excellent question…
- Well, because I can’t work for free:) I too am a teacher and have to make a living! I give a ton of lessons, templates, vocabulary and general content away for free. But my time is valuable, just like your time. And things that are super high value, resource rich and transformative have a price. I guarantee you will walk away with an arsenal of Spanish to use in the classroom and with parents. But not just walk away- you are going to apply it right away! And you have my full support and I’m committed to your success!
- Let me ask you this…what do you charge for small group tutoring in an academic area? The going rate for private tutoring is between $50 and $60 an hour. Although this is not private tutoring- I’m going to be teaching you around 15 hours of Spanish and I guarantee you it will be the most relevant, applicable Spanish course you will take.
- I know for myself, if I’m paying for something and have skin in the game, I’m am going to make MOST out of it. You will too!
