  • Description


    I am 68 years old and I live in Sarasota, Florida. I have lived in Spain twice, 1961-1964 and again in 1967-1969. As a result, I have always felt deeply connected to Spain and to Spanish speaking people in general. As a child, of course, I picked up Spanish quickly and could communicate well enough to function in Spanish society.

    H owever, after I left Spain, I rarely used the language again and have forgotten almost everything I learned. Over recent years though, I have tried several times to relearn Spanish but all I have managed to do is learn hundreds of disconnected words and short phases.

    Several weeks ago I also began an online language exchange with a woman in Spain. This has been very helpful as she also needs help with her English, but she is not a Spanish teacher. Her English is much better than my Spanish, so we end up speaking a lot more English than Spanish. I think my listening and comprehension level is more advanced than my speaking ability.

    A t this point I feel that I need personal guidance from an actual Spanish teacher/tutor . I am retired so my schedule is very flexible.

    Gracias y espero que tengas un gran día.

    Tom Goodson
