Academic Support Bilingüe

Bilingual Academic Support for schoolwork in English and Spanish

A student opens a science assignment and gets stuck on the first question. They recognize the topic from class, but the wording in English makes it hard to know what they’re being asked to do. Once they talk through the question in Spanish, they can explain the concept. Now they have a starting point for writing their own answer in English.

That’s what Bilingual Academic Support at Creciendo con Ka can look like. We work one-on-one with students in English and Spanish to review school subjects, work through assignments and projects, and prepare for tests. We use either language, or both, depending on what the student is learning and what helps them understand it.

What happens in a session?

We start with a conversation about which subjects need attention and which language the student uses in class. From there, we work with material they’re already studying. That might mean breaking a project into manageable steps, reviewing vocabulary before a test, or working through an example together before the student tries a similar problem independently.

As we go, we check what the student can explain or do on their own and where they still need practice. That helps us adjust the next session and gives the student a clearer idea of how to approach the next assignment.

If your child could use support with schoolwork in English or Spanish, get in touch to talk about what they’re working on and where we can start.
