Important note:
“I created this course with a special focus on Spanish native speakers because: 1) I speak this language and have a deep understanding of the challenges Hispanophones face when learning the sounds and sound patterns of English, and 2) As a therapist, I believe that learning should be individualized for each student, and so I wanted to make the course more targeted by focusing on Spanish speakers.
If you speak another language as your first language and are not sure if this course could be helpful to you, please send me a message and I will be happy to answer any questions and direct to you to parts of the course that would be of most interest to you.”
