Sarah Breckley seems a very engaging teacher with the students. I've a feeling language retention will be high with her methods. Please keep it up Senora Breckley.

Gracias por mirar, Westwood!

I'm sure I've commented this before, but your videos are awesome and give so many ideas to try in my classroom! Plus they're often realistic (like doing "fun" things since most of us are just elective teachers) about what it's like to teach a world language. Thank you for continuing to share.

A really great and funny way to learn! You remind me a lot of my English teacher Amanda, who taught me back in 2016, I'm from Nicaragua, she was a volunteer in the peace corps.

[@Breckley]

Amanda sounds like a great teacher, LOL! Thanks for the comment, Ezekiel!

I am ready for the other 9 strategy videos 😂 loved this video!

LOVE this! You mentioned "it depends if they come prepared or not"...do you have any resources or anything you can share that you give students to help prepare? I have the SOMOS special person interview questions. Do you just provide them a list of potential questions? Also, do you have a list of your fun "talents"???

[@jeilynmorejonjimenez3481]

Hello, I love all your videos. I am almost certain that you once posted a list of some of the talents students can choose from if they don't come with a talent to present. Am I imgining this? I have looked everywhere, in your blog, in my drive and I can't find it.

[@Breckley]

¡Gracias por dejar un comentario, Gerardo! ¡Todos los acentos son bonitos!

[@user-pf2nr6lv2i]

You mentioned "they didn't come prepared." Do you assign Star of the Day in advance? Do you schedule them?

[@matthewlaffey2980]

very swag!

[@Breckley]

Your splits were what made this video. We all know.

Really nice process, but you really, really need to improve your Spanish accent to be a Spanish teacher...at least make the effort if you want your students to make the effort. 🙏 An accent is a huge part of a language. You can know all the vocabulary and grammer you want, but if you can't articulate your words properly, it's incomplete.

Incorrect. Accents are beautiful, most can’t get rid of their accents, it’s unclear who’s ‘native’ accent is ‘right’, and as long as they don’t impede communication, appreciate them. th-cam.com/video/xoOLBi8XL7I/w-d-xo.html
