Spanish Lessons Online for Kindergarten: Give Your Child a Head Start

As your child gets ready for school, the thought of language classes may have crossed your mind. With so much talk about the benefits of teaching your child a second language as young as possible, you may be feeling the pressure to expose your kindergartener to a language like Spanish. 

If you don’t speak the language, how do you do it? Where do you start? With a simple Google search for Spanish resources for kids, you’ll find hundreds of activities, resources, and class ideas. 

Before you dive down into that rabbit hole, let us take some of the pressure off. While Spanish learning resources can be a great tool, there is an even better option: Spanish lessons online. 

Spanish Lessons Online vs. Other Resources

Are you’re thinking that your kindergartener is too young for Spanish lessons online? Think again. In fact, numerous companies and organizations specifically cater digital classes to the youngest learners. 

So, why are Spanish lessons online better than other resources? Check out these six amazing reasons.

Spanish Lessons Online

1. Real-life Exposure to the Language

Spanish apps, worksheets, and games are all fantastic ways to practice the language. However, that’s all they are—practice. These resources alone aren’t designed to teach your child a second language. Instead, they serve as resources to supplement the classes.

Instead of hearing an app repeating Spanish phrases or stumbling through a Spanish vocab list, give your child the opportunity to hear native Spanish with a live teacher in online classes. 

This way, your child won’t need to try and memorize random lists of words. Instead, they will hear and repeat practical sentences and simple conversations. 

Exposing your child to real-life Spanish conversation helps them develop fluency faster than passive learning methods like apps and worksheets. Just as they naturally picked up English from hearing you and others speak it, they will learn Spanish through exposure.

2. Personalized Teaching

One of the most important benefits of Spanish lessons online is personalized teaching. There’s no need for you to come up with extravagant Spanish lessons using the online games and worksheets you found. Leave it up to the professionals, and they will design a class structure that’s ideal for your little one. 

Not only do online teachers have an extensive curriculum for kindergarteners, but they can also adapt it to fit your child’s specific needs. You definitely won’t find that with apps, worksheets, or activity sites!

3. Face-to-Face Interaction

Learning a new language can be a daunting task, full of questions about pronunciation, sentence structure, and vocabulary. 

When your child starts asking you questions like “Why is it buenos días and not buenas días?”, who do you turn to for help?

With Spanish lessons online, you can ask the teacher any question you have. Not only are the instructors certified language teachers, but they are usually also native Spanish speakers. Their knowledge of the language is extensive, and they can answer any question you or your little learner may have.

While digital classes aren’t completely face-to-face learning experience since everything happens through a screen, it is still much more personalized than online Spanish games or applications. Your child can connect with the teacher and form a bond that makes them excited about learning Spanish. The personal interaction brings the language to life. 

4. Conversation Practice

When you have a young student learning Spanish, the main goal is for them to gain listening comprehension and basic conversational skills. However, most online Spanish resources do not focus on conversation and often don’t even have listening components. 

By scheduling Spanish classes online with a live teacher, your child will get first-hand conversation practice and begin speaking the language much quicker than with online resources.

5. Parent Involvement

Another added plus of having Spanish classes online is that you can get involved in the learning process. You can tell the teacher what your language-learning goals are, sit in on the class, and even learn some Spanish along with your kindergartener!

6. Safe Environment

One of the biggest arguments against Spanish classes online is safety. You don’t want to put your child in any type of compromising situation or have other unwanted guests on the video call. 

However, with most credible Spanish lessons online, the companies take extra precautionary steps to ensure your child is in the safest environment possible. 

Spanish Lessons Online with Homeschool Spanish Academy

One of the most prominent companies that offer Spanish lessons online is Homeschool Spanish Academy.

We offer Spanish classes for everyone from preschool students to adults, and all of our teachers are native Spanish-speaking teachers from Guatemala. Every instructor is certified to teach your kindergartener and has an extensive knowledge of the Spanish language that they can share with you and your child. 

When you sign your kindergartener up for Spanish lessons online with us, our teachers will cater the classes to your child using our detailed curriculum for little learners. Every activity and vocabulary section is designed for your kindergartener. 

With only a light focus on grammar, the main learning point is Spanish conversation. Our teachers will engage your child in games, conversation, and interactive activities to make learning Spanish fun and applicable to their lives. 

Not only will they get plenty of authentic exposure to the Spanish language, but all of our teachers speak English, as well. If your child has a question, or if you want to talk to the teacher about class goals, both of you can do so in English.   

Support Your Child with their Spanish Lessons Online

The greatest thing about enrolling your child in Spanish lessons online with Homeschool Spanish Academy is that you can supplement their learning with resources outside of the class. We have several guides on how to continue the learning outside of the class. 

You can try your hand at continuing the lessons yourself, reading to your child in Spanish, and teaching them to read in both languages. It’s important for your child to continue practicing Spanish outside of their formal classes, and we have plenty of resources to help you do just that.
