Spanish Ab initio IB1
The vocabulary lists have been divided into IB1 and IB2 subthemes, but the order can be swapped according to individual needs.
Ms. Bacheca has a relaxed but firm approach. Her classes are fun and interesting, covering so many different topics in one lesson. My French marks have improved and I feel a lot more comfortable and confident especially with speaking!

Nellyne - Grade 10Kenya
Classes with Ms. Bacheca have helped me not only improve my Spanish, but also feel more comfortable and confident to speak and write in Spanish. Before her lessons I was always stressed whenever I had Spanish summatives, but she has helped me feel more prepared for my exams -especially the individual oral for Spanish. She also prepares these amazing Quizlets that I always refer back to when preparing for any assignments. Even though the classes are online, I can always concentrate easily and access the material needed.

Sarim - Grade 11Pakistan / United States
Madame Bacheca is truly one of the best teachers I have ever had. She is supportive, kind and understanding. Without Madame Bacheca´s unwavering encouragement and commitment (even when trying to pronounce the vowels in French), my proficiency in French would be at a significantly lower level.

Sra. Bacheca has led me to enjoy learning Spanish and to overcome the intimidation I have always been faced with when learning Spanish. She has helped me to gain confidence, and to have the courage to make mistakes in order to learn from them. In order to do so, she has provided me with several learning strategies, countless Spanish learning resources and several lessons catered to help turn my weaknesses into strengths. She is an extremely patient, kind and devoted educator who has shown me that learning Spanish can be fun, rather than daunting. I am very fortunate to have Sra. Bacheca as my Spanish tutor.

My weekly lessons with Ms. Bacheca keep me focused on what I need to do to master IB Spanish. Ms Bacheca is incredibly organized and she has divided the IB curriculum into lessons, worksheets and quizlets. Languages are not necessarily my passion, but if I work with Ms. Bacheca there is a sense of progress which feeds my motivation. She is always encouraging and only wants the best for her students. Getting a good grade for IB languages is possible.
Max - Grade 11South Africa
Ms. Bacheca has helped me improve my Spanish majorly in a very short period of time. She is extremely kind, and considerate when it comes to learning. Along with that, she is extremely organized and provides me with all material I need. With her way of teaching, I am no longer afraid to speak out in Spanish class – where I used to stay quiet as I was scared to be wrong. My grades have definitely improved in Spanish, and I am excited to learn more from her as time comes along!
