FREE WEBINAR: SPANISH PHRASES


FREE SPANISH WEBINAR




Hello everyone:
My name is Nibaldo Calvo Buides, a Spanish teacher from Cuba. I live in Louisville, Kentucky.
I am reaching out to everybody to offer this FREE Spanish webinar.
A false friend  is a word in a language that bears a deceptive resemblance to a word in another language but in fact has a different meaning.
Spanish and English share words with Latin roots. Some words with the same origin take a different way in each language.
In this webinar I will teach you "false friends" Spanish-English words.
For example:  The Spanish word ÉXITO means success, hit (not EXIT).
As the best way to learn Spanish is in context because it helps lock Spanish words in the long term memory, in the webinar I will place the Spanish words in short expressions.
With this method you will learn fast because you will be giving meaning to your new vocabulary.
This webinar is open for all ages and levels.
It will be on August 22, from 6:00 p.m. to 6: 30 p.m. (Eastern Time Zone).
Registration in this link: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/free-webinar--spanish/register

Thanks very much and I look forward to see you there.
