Help for a fellow homeschooler.

Posted in School

Rebecca, of One pea in a pod has asked about teaching Spanish to her son, Josiah.  Here's her question:

 

So my husband and I think it is very important that Josiah learn Spanish.  We think it will be very beneficial for him to learn.  Marco Josiah grandpa is from South America.  My question is how do we go about teaching him Spanish? There are so many different curriculum's out there that I am not sure what would really work and what is not worth paying for.  Money is tight so getting something that works is really important to us.    Does anyone have any great suggestions?  Something that has worked in your family?  When should you start teaching a foreign language? 

I would ask my father in law to teach him but with his condition he is unable to teach him.

 

I have asked about foreign language curriculum before, without much feedback.  If you have advice or recommendations about Foreign Language instruction, Spanish in particular, please hop on over to her blog and let her know your thoughts!

Thank you so much for posting my question on your blog that was so nice of you. I really appreciate you doing that for me. I am hoping one of the veteran homeschoolers will have an answer. Maybe if we are lucky they will do an article in The Old Schoolhouse magazine about teaching foreign languages. That would be great. Thanks again for your help.

I like it because it teaches you how to actually SPEAK the language, and can be used by all ages, from preschoolers through adults. It's expensive, but since it can be used by everyone in the family, and has a very high resale value, it is really a good investment. When we were selling curriculum on the road at state conventions yet, this was our top seller for foreign languages. Please let your friend know this is top notch and easy to use, and fun, too :-)
