I studied Spanish as my major in college, and have travelled to Spain, Venezuela, and various parts of Mexico. I currently teach high school Spanish and teach private lessons to adults who want to learn Spanish. I make no claims to speak Spanish perfectly or even really fluently, although I can speak fairly well and enjoy it. I have a grammar nerd kind of brain and love getting into the grammatical details of the language.

Jul 10	comment	How do I get a young toddler to walk holding my hand? This has seemed to be the approach that works best for us. He gets a choice, but only the 2 acceptable choices. I think giving it a little more time and practice has helped as well.

Apr 23	answered	Ideas for dealing with a 16 month old toddler who likes to climb things?
Apr 23	comment	Ideas for dealing with a 16 month old toddler who likes to climb things? I'm also afraid my son will learn to enjoy the fall if I used this method of him "falling" and catching him. He also likes throwing himself backwards in my arms for me to catch him, and flopping himself on the bed.
