My 12yo and I have been going over conjugation ala “Spanish for Children” and Galore Park’s “So You Really Want To Learn Spanish” and this will be a great reinforcement. Thanks so much. We’ve done all the videos in order so far, using them as a break from the textbook stuff and giving a different voice to the materials. thanks so much!

Hola Senor Jordan!
I’ve learned how to say what I do in Spanish:
Yo canto
Yo bailo
yo patino
(I do more but I’m not going to list it allLOL!)

I can’t exactly pronounce everything I think yo patino is yuh-paul-tee-nuh and yo canto is yuh-cahn-tuh and yo bailo is yuh-baul-uh
is that right? if not can you help me out?
Thanks!
Licia
