The Subjunctive Made Simple

Our Subjunctive Made Simple Course has already started, but if you’re interested in a modified version of the course, please reach out to us: ImmerseYourself@PuraBuenaOnda.com or call/text us at 619-916-8339

The moment you have all been waiting for has finally arrived!

PBO will once again be offering an intensive Subjunctive course!

(It has probably been 8 years since we have done it!)

When most Spanish students think about the subjunctive, they immediately feel a sense of dread and anxiety. They get so overwhelmed by this topic, that most students shy away from it.

But what if I told you that 90% of this topic is actually pretty straightforward  and not nearly as difficult as you thought?

What if I told you that after these 12 weeks you would have a really good idea  of when to use the subjunctive 90% of the time and that you would be able to determine which of the 4 subjunctive tenses to use?

Would you give yourself the chance to learn it?

This course is going to revolve around:

 subjunctive triggers
conjugations
learning how to determine which of the 4 Subjunctive Tenses to use
and mindset

 More than anything, we want you to be exposed to the 90% of the subjunctive that is straightforward and not nearly as difficult to learn as you may think.

With 12 weeks dedicated to learning & practicing that 90%,
you will be able to master this beast in no time!

After this course we also hope that you will feel excited about the Subjunctive and no longer afraid of it!

  • Each class will be one hour long, with approximately half the class dedicated to instruction, and half to practice
