    • About Spanish tutoring

    Spanish tutoring on TutorA is live and 1:1 for Grades 6-8 following the International curriculum, held in 45-min sessions, 1–2x/week. Sessions build toward everyday conversation and vocabulary; core grammar: verbs, tenses and agreement; listening and speaking practice from day one. Every tutor is reviewed by TutorA's team before being matched, and sessions are paced to where a student is actually starting from rather than a fixed group syllabus.

    What this covers

    • gendered nouns and adjective agreement
    • ser vs. estar distinction
    • present-tense conjugation across verb groups
    • false cognates and irregular verbs

    Middle-school Spanish (Grades 6-8) usually starts with the basics that trip up English speakers specifically: gendered nouns and adjective agreement (el libro rojo vs. la mesa roja), the distinction between ser and estar (both mean "to be," but ser is for permanent traits and estar is for states or location — a common early confusion), and regular present-tense conjugation across the three verb groups (-ar, -er, -ir).

    A TutorA Spanish tutor paces this to your child's actual class or goal — if they're following a specific school curriculum, sessions can reinforce what's being taught in class rather than a separate track; if it's general conversational Spanish, sessions lean more toward speaking and listening from the first lesson instead of grammar-first. Common early sticking points include false cognates (words that look similar to English but mean something different — "embarazada" means pregnant, not embarrassed) and irregular verbs that don't follow the standard patterns, like ser, ir, and tener.

    Sessions run 45 minutes, typically 1-2x a week, live and 1:1 — your tutor adjusts pace for a middle-schooler rather than material written for adult learners.
