For many children and teenagers arriving in Barcelona, school is where they first encounter Catalan. They may hear it in class, see it in learning materials or need it to make friends and join activities. My lessons help them understand their surroundings and develop their language skills without unnecessary pressure.<\/p>

Content is adapted to the student’s level, from A1 to C2, and to the tasks they face. The priority might be understanding explanations, expanding vocabulary, speaking, reading with confidence or improving writing.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Learning a language at school involves much more than memorising words. Students need to follow instructions, identify important information, ask questions and explain when something isn’t clear. We’ll work on these skills using examples relevant to each student’s situation.<\/p>

Classes can also support reading comprehension or preparation for activities where Catalan is needed. The goal is to strengthen their language skills, not replace work done in individual subjects.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

I use stories, games, pictures, conversations, reading and short projects to give students meaningful reasons to use Catalan. Topics can relate to their interests, encouraging participation and helping them stay engaged.<\/p>

  • Listen and identify relevant information.<\/li>
  • Speak with support and gradually expand answers.<\/li>
  • Read level-appropriate texts and infer meanings.<\/li>
  • Write with increasingly clear structure.<\/li>
  • Distinguish words or structures easily confused with Spanish.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
