Book Overview
Approaching language details informally and with a minimum of classroom-style presentation, author and educator Harvey offers practical instruction in Spanish basics. The focus is on conversational Spanish for teachers, counselors, administrators, and other employees at schools where Spanish is the first language of many students. Two opening chapters present fundamentals of Spanish speech and word order, and familiarize readers with often-used words and phrases that relate directly to school situations. The two following chapters pertain to Spanish that is most useful for communicating with younger students (pre-school through elementary grades) and older students (middle and high school grades). Remaining chapters offer help for counseling in Spanish in issues relating to health care, career guidance, college assistance, educational administration, special-needs, and extracurricular activities. A Spanish-English and English-Spanish glossary is also provided to help educators find the right word or phrase for a variety of situations.

Spanish For Educators
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is a good textbook for the course I took, "Spanish For Educators", with a couple exceptions. I wish it had an index to locate words and concepts. Also, the glossary is incomplete and doesn't include many words from the chapters.
Essential material for educators

I found this book indispensable for those Educators working or seeking carrer in a biligual teaching environment. Very useful.
A must have for any educator of Spanish speaking students.

I found this book to be very helpful as a resource in my classroom. With several Spanish speaking students (preschool) I repeatedly returned to this book for answers. I do have some knowledge of Spanish. I can see how this book could not be as helpfull to an educator with little or no Spanish language background. It was very relevant to school situations. I have used it as a resource when dealing with students from 2 years old to 20 years old. Every school should be required to have this wonderful book available to its educators.
Very good

Most language courses give you a lot of words and phrases which are needed if you are a tourist. This one concentrates on what you need if you work in the schools. The author writes very clearly and the lessons follow a natural progression. Everything I learned here was useful. A very good investment. Get the book with the tapes. They are well worth it.
Translated educational vocabulary commonly used in schools.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This easy to use book helps even the Spanish illerate speak and converse. With easy to access vocabulary and phrases, you will be on your way to making your Spanish speaking parents and students feel welcome in your school. Everything from discipline to the clinic is covered in this book. I would like to see a copy in all of our school buildings to make easy references and translations for our parents and students.
