HMLS Joel: Intermediate Spanish Podcast

Welcome to Help Me Learn Spanish, Joel. This is an intermediate Spanish and high beginner Spanish podcast. Thank you for considering listening to this podcast to help you learn Spanish, improve your Spanish and help you reach your ultimate goal to speak Spanish. This is a podcast for those of you who are high beginners and intermediate learners of Spanish. In this podcast, you can learn how we speak Spanish in everyday language and how we talk about simple and ordinary tasks in life and learn grammar in context. You will hear conversations between two native speakers, and we will have different guests from different countries so that you can improve your listening and comprehension skill. My name is Joel Zárate. I speak five languages, I hold two masters’ degrees, and my area of specialization is Second Language Acquisition, how we learn languages. I do my best to apply my knowledge when I designed the episodes so that you can get the best quality in learning materials.

A Little Bit About Myself

I am Joel Zárate, and I am the host and producer of this podcast. I was born in Mexico, but I moved to California after finishing High School many years ago. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Spanish, and I have two master’s degrees: a master’s degree in Spanish and a master’s degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages from the California State University, Sonoma Campus. In both graduate degrees, I directed my studies to Second Language Acquisition, and I have taught English and Spanish to many students. I speak Spanish, English, French, Italian and Portuguese, and I am learning how to say a few things in other languages like Japanese, German, Chinese, Russian and Other Languages. I love learning languages, and I love teaching languages, and I hope that with this podcast, I can contribute to your journey to learn Spanish, improve your Spanish and reach your goal to speak Spanish.
