La Tutoría (tutorials)
Spanish classes were not given a tutorial day this year . Students need to see me if they need extra help. In process of high school Spanish Honor Society students to come and tutor for free
Tips for success in Spanish:• ***Complete homework***
Student’s homework is reinforcement over the lesson covered in class that day • Review a little each day rather than
cramming before a quiz or test
