[News Boquete] Emails from news.boquete




For a while now, people using yahoo, aol, att and some other suppliers for their email service have not been receiving the emails from news.boquete.

Over the past week we have been making changes to the configuration and we believe it is now working correctly.
An unfortunate side-effect of this is that those email systems that were not receiving the emails before think that we are sending out large volumes of spam, and you may receive the emails in your inbox with a pink message box warning that they may be spam.

If you see this, you need to click on the "It's Safe" button and for reasons we don't quite understand you will probably need to do this several or more times. Please keep clicking until you see the email without the warning.
Once you have done this you should not receive a similar warning in the future.

If you do not mark the email as safe, your email may be automatically marked as spam. This not only prevents you from receiving further emails but also negatively affects our performance score, so if you do not want to continue receiving emails from news.boquete, please do not do this, instead send an Unsubscribe email to news.boquete@gmail.com.

Thank you for your understanding, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

[News Boquete] Crash Course Spanish Class


New Crash Course Spanish Classes with Renny start on Monday

June 1 –July 10, 2026  two days a week (Mon. & Thurs.)

 It is a six-week class.

 This is a fun easy class. If there is any practice or homework, those with busy schedules will love having the option of doing them by email or Whats Ap at their convenience.

_________________________

COST: $200  

 As many people know, Renny, a degreed professional, owned a language school in David under contract with the Panamanian Government giving classes for them, and also had one in Houston. She is now offering several levels of Spanish classes in Boquete, two levels of Basic, and an Intermediate class. These are professional instructions with an easy, clear curriculum and the correct sequencing of material.

Location of the class is in Boquete

All of the Spanish Classes are called Crash Course Spanish


**** The Basic class meets Mondays and Thursdays starting at 9:30 a.m.

This Basic Class will get you speaking fast! 
It shows how the language is organized, and teaches the tricks of the language, the basics: pronunciation, some important cultural notes,
phrases, vocabulary, speaking; fluid short conversations, how to ask and answer questions. You will practice and share tips, create full sentences, and learn this trick, how to speak without conjugating verbs. Workbook is included.

 

 The Crash Course Intermediate Class

**Class meets 2 days a week in the afternoon at 1:00 p.m.

You will USE your acquired Spanish language! You will speak in class, get tips for learning to listen and respond, you will have short exchanges, pronounce the difficult, role play, learn word order, expand your vocabulary, and engage in specialized classes to gain better listening skills. You will speak every day, learn a higher use of some verbs without conjugating, create interesting sentences, listen to songs, conduct interviews, and give short speeches. Learn by doing. Each student will translate for someone. It's time to do better at understanding what Spanish speakers are saying BECAUSE… the class also engages in "Train your ear” as well as “Practicing Speaking”, all of this as you learn more and more Spanish fast; you build the confidence you need to converse with others.

Workbook is included.


Pre-requisite for the **Intermediate Class :  you MUST be at the intermediate level of speech, no exceptions

 

**Intermediate Class To enter this class the following will describe your level of speech:

You respond to simple, direct questions or requests for information, can ask a few questions concerning needs and wants, and are able to express personal meaning by relying heavily on learned or re-combined phrases, repeating, or rephrasing what you hear around you. You know short and sometimes incomplete sentences in the present tense. At times you know you state things incorrectly but gain confidence because the Spanish speaker “got” what you were trying to say. You may be hesitant or inaccurate, whereby frequent misunderstandings arise.  When called upon to handle a variety of topics and perform serious functions you operate at about a 40% to 50% success range, and can sometimes respond in intelligible sentences, but cannot sustain full sentence exchanges. You know the meanings/translations (not the conjugations) of at least 75 verbs.  

To express interest in this class, please respond to this information at the following email:   rennykranich@gmail.com
