Spanish lessons with a UCES tutor focused on conversation, culture, and personal growth

The Tutor and Student reviewed Spanish grammar, focusing on the correct usage of past tenses and expanding vocabulary related to traffic and accidents. They practiced transforming sentences into the past tense and discussed new terms for road signs, vehicles, and driving actions, with plans to continue vocabulary acquisition in future sessions.

Student and Tutor continued their work on Spanish family vocabulary and introduced possessive adjectives. They practiced identifying family members and applied new grammatical concepts through a descriptive narrative and interactive questions. The next session will focus on descriptive vocabulary using verbs.

The Student and Tutor thoroughly reviewed the usage of Spanish *Preterito Indefinido* and *Imperfecto* tenses through a story-writing exercise. They practiced applying these tenses, with a focus on distinguishing consecutive actions from descriptions and simultaneous events, and clarified the use of various pronouns and prepositions. The plan is to complete the story exercise and introduce new vocabulary in the next session.

Student and Tutor introduced and practiced using Spanish relative pronouns: "que," "quien/quienes," and "donde." They reviewed the specific rules for each, focusing on when to use them for people, things, or places, and completed exercises involving dialogue analysis, sentence correction, and filling in blanks in a text. The next class will continue practicing sentence combination with these pronouns.

The Student and Tutor reviewed the Spanish preterite and imperfect tenses, focusing on irregular verbs like 'dar' and 'ver', and their application in describing past scenes versus recounting completed actions. They practiced forming questions and describing a party using these tenses, with a plan to learn new uses of these tenses in the next session.

The tutor and student reviewed Spanish vocabulary for family members and relationships, practicing sentence construction with possessives and prepositions. They completed an exercise filling in a family tree based on an audio recording and discussed future topics like possessive adjectives and adjective placement.
