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

The Tutor and Student reviewed the Spanish past tenses, focusing on the distinction between the preterite and imperfect through conjugation, usage, and practical application exercises. The Student practiced writing a narrative using these tenses, and they planned to cover negative sentences in the next session.

The class reviewed the imperfect tense in Spanish, including its conjugation, uses, and comparison with the preterite and present tenses. The Student practiced using the imperfect tense in various contexts through examples and an interview exercise about their primary school experiences. The next session will include more practice with the imperfect tense and an introduction to negatives in Spanish.

The class reviewed a past Spanish test, correcting grammatical errors in commands, possessives, and past tenses. The student then explored vocabulary and cultural aspects related to yoga, practicing listening comprehension and speaking skills. The class will continue with more yoga-related activities, including writing and organizing a yoga class plan in Spanish.

The Student and Tutor reviewed ways to introduce oneself in Spanish, including stating name and nationality using the verb "ser." The student practiced saying their name and where they are from. Due to technical issues, the session was cut short, and the plan is to reschedule once the student's technical setup is resolved.

The session reviewed past tenses, direct object pronouns, and reflexive verbs. The Student practiced using negative words in Spanish, focusing on sentence structure and double negatives. The tutor introduced additional vocabulary related to conditionals and carnivals for future lessons, with plans to include a test on *pretérito perfecto* and *pretérito indefinido* upon completion.

The session focused on Spanish grammar and comprehension, including differentiating between preterite and imperfect tenses, using conditional tense for polite requests, and understanding the uses of 'por' and 'para'. The student practiced listening comprehension and completing exercises to reinforce these concepts, with a plan to continue next Monday.
