What your child learns
We follow engaging monthly themes related to real-life holidays and seasons that truly compel students to use Spanish in a meaningful way that relates to their daily life.
Level 3 is for early elementary students who have some experience with Spanish and are ready to start talking and reading together. If your child is not yet reading, Level 1 or Level 2 is the better fit, and if you are not sure, just ask us.
- Have interactive activities every single week
- Practice reading, at whatever stage your child is at
- Use body movement to connect to the meaning of new words
- Follow a new seasonal theme each month, tied to the holidays and weather your family is actually living through
- Have a sharing time, bringing a toy or stuffed animal to show your teacher and learning how to say it in Spanish
- Use lots of repetition
- Use multiple learning methods, because no two children learn the same way
- Learn sentence structures that build confidence and independence
What a session looks like
Forty minutes, nine steps, the same every week. Predictability is what lets a child spend their attention on the Spanish instead of on wondering what happens next.

What parents ask about Level 3
Will my child get the same Spanish teacher every time?
They can! Choose the recurring appointment option when you book to keep the same teacher, day, and time each week. You can also book with different available teachers when needed.
Can siblings learn together?
Yes! Siblings join free when they can learn together in the same session. As a general guideline, siblings should be within about 2–3 years of each other and at reasonably similar Spanish levels. Only one learner needs to be booked. Read the siblings policy.
What do I need for class?
Just a device with Zoom, a quiet learning space, and a willingness to have fun! We also send printable worksheets weekly so your child can practice their Spanish skills between online classes.
