Whenever I take on a new student who has previous knowledge of the language, I give them the 24 sentences below, with the following instructions:
"See how many of these sentences you can say in Spanish, off-the-top-of-your-head, without using a translator. We will discuss these during our first lesson, so I will know where to begin teaching you."
If you use a translator, I will not have a truly authentic indicator of where to start my lessons with you.
So, don't do that. Lol...
