Our Spanish for Educators course is designed specifically for teachers and staff with little to no Spanish experience. This flexible, online program teaches practical Spanish conversation skills tailored to the school setting—so educators can build rapport, express expectations clearly, and support student success.

Language barriers can hinder effective communication—whether in the classroom, during parent-teacher meetings, or at key moments when family engagement matters most.

The Tennessee Language Center understands these challenges and is here to help.

Participants will gain confidence speaking Spanish about:

  • Names and introductions
  • Daily schedules and classroom routines
  • Expectations and rules
  • Encouragement and motivation
  • Instructions and guidance
  • Constructive feedback
