Welcome to the very last part of MyTeacherDave’s Spanish Alphabet page.

ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT SPELLING
To ask about how to spell something, we say:
“¿CÓMO SE ESCRIBE…?” = “HOW DO YOU SPELL…?”
Example Q & A
Question => “¿Cómo se escribe tu nombre?“.
Answer => “Se escribe mi nombre D-A-V-E“.
Your Mission
Using the information about how to ask and answer questions about spelling, make questions and answers for the following:
1) Your name (“mi nombre”)
2) Your surname (“mi apellido”)
3) Your email address (“mi correo electrónico”)
4) Your school (“mi instituto”)
5) Your favourite animal (“mi animal favorito”)
BY THE WAY…
@ = “arroba” . = “punto” “space” = “espacio”

HANNAH SHARKEY – TRALEE
Leaving Cert. 2021- 6 Months (H2)
“Teacher Dave is great because the classes are tailored to the student and you can concentrate on what you need most. I have learnt so much in a few short weeks. Furthermore, I have gained so much confidence in speaking Spanish that I never had before. This is because we chat in Spanish in an easy and relaxed manner. Dave gives so much time to your improvement and is really invested in your progress”.
HOLLY CAMPION – WICKLOW

“I have been attending Dave’s weekly Spanish class since last year and it has no doubt been the best decision. Dave is by far one of the best teachers I’ve ever had he is very thorough with explaining each topic and has brilliant, colourful notes which I find very helpful. Thank you Dave for all the time and effort you have put into all my classes, it has made a huge difference to my school work…”
DAVEY GANNON – DUBLIN

“Teacher Dave has taught me to have a positive mindset towards Spanish and I have enjoyed every single one of my classes. His patience and support are unmatched and even the toughest parts of the language are broken down with the easy-to-follow lessons. We always crack a few jokes and have fun while learning, which gives the classes their real uniqueness”.

I am a Doctor (PhD) of Linguistics with Spanish and English and a qualified teacher (Cambridge) now, but I actually started Spanish as a hobby 18 years ago with zero idea of the language! I made all the mistakes, worked really hard, became an expert (a Doctor!) and developed the best ways to learn properly and retain what I learned.
As a teacher, I dedicate everything I do to show you how to improve, love the language and know what it’s like to be successful with it.
As one of my past students said:
“Dave gives so much time to your improvement and is really invested in your progress”. – Hannah Sharky.
YES.
All of my students report an improvement in their very first class.
This is because all materials and activities are designed to make you get better immediately.
NO.
This is a complimentary Spanish class with absolutely no commitment.
I hope you really enjoy the class and learn a lot with me.
However, if you don’t want other classes, that is completely OK!
