We're hosting a Mesa Turquesa session with Joshua McCarey! Thursdays 5:30-6:30pm, from January 22nd to March 26th. (Mesa=Table) How it Works: This is a Spanish class/conversation club with a twist: storytelling and connection form the heart of Joshua's Mesas. Conversations will integrate your own life stories with Spanish language and Hispanic culture. Find out more about his program at lamesaturquesa.org. This class costs $220, paid directly to Joshua (see your confirmation email for payment instructions). You will just register through our Adult Ed platform. *Keep in mind that Joshua has scholarship funding available; nobody will be turned away due to lack of funds. Once you register, you'll get more information about this in your confirmation email.* What You'll Learn: - In 10 meetings you'll learn and practice Spanish speaking, listening, and grammar - Focus on 2 main grammatical themes and various vocabulary words - Through conversation, you'll build speech and imagery through personal connection to the language - This session's theme will explore the cultural roots and flourishing of Flamenco dance! This class is open to ages 16 and up, or by permission of the director. It's helpful to have some experience with language learning, specifically verb conjugation (it doesn't have to be Spanish!). Are you a Spanish Beginner but still want to join the Mesas? Join the optional (free!) Spanish Study Group meeting before each Mesa conversation, or reach out so we can help you prepare in other ways. You can select the study group option when you submit your registration. If you have questions or are having trouble with this registration platform, please email gupham@su76.org or call 207-656-6262. If you think transportation will be an issue, let us know and we can look into a carpooling arrangement.
