homework assignments.

How can I obtain a tutor?
Your counselor can provide you with a list of students who have signed up to
act as 'peer tutors'. Simply tell your counselor what hour you have study
hall, and he/she can arrange for you to meet with a peer tutor once a week,
twice a week, or even just once or twice to practice. These peer tutors are
free of charge.

How many years of Spanish do I need to graduate?
You do not need world language credit to graduate from L-W. However, most
colleges and universities request that you have AT LEAST two years. This
may vary on your school of choice, and what major you decide on. In any
case, the more the better! (Besides, it's FUN!)

I'm a parent with a child in Spanish. How can I help him/her study?
Your child should have an English-Spanish list of their current vocabulary
in their notebook. (If they don't they failed to complete one of the most
important homework assignments all chapter!) Simply read the English word
to your child and have them respond in Spanish. Their knowledge and
pronunciation will impress you!
