19. Required Live Classes
The purpose of the Required Live Classes (RLC) is to give students access to their teachers for
lessons, Q & A and support in their Spanish classes. The RLC sessions are offered every week at a
variety of times.
After attending each session, you need to complete a brief reflective assignment including the following
items:
 When did you attend (provide date and time)?
 Who was the teacher/presenter?
 What did you cover/learn? (You should include a complete copy of your notes with at least 10
specific things discussed/covered.)
 What do you still have questions about? (You should always have questions, so do NOT put
"none.")
 What do you need to work on/improve? (This should be specific, regarding at least one thing that
was discussed in the session.)
 How do you plan to improve in the area/s listed above? (Again, be as specific as possible.)
 How can I (your teacher) help you? (Again, be as specific as possible.)

21. Sequence of Assignments
The course is set up to release the assignments of the Unit as you
complete them in a sequence. Think of Dominos falling down one after
the other. So when you first open the unit, you will probably only see
Actividades de Vocabulario or the Práctica de Vocabulario and the
Culture Lesson.
If you can't see anything else, you probably haven't completed the
Práctica de Grámatica or the Actividades de Vocabulario yet. You
must get a 70% for those you won't be able to proceed.
When you are ready open the 1st assignment, study the vocabulary and
complete the 1st assignment. When finished, you will then be able to
open the next assignment, writing assignment, test or quiz.

22. Voice Recording

the speaking assignment as a voicemail.
Just text me to tell me that you're calling
and I won't answer the phone.
My cell is: (252) 256-7082
