8. Homework should be avoided at all costs. I mean, we all know everything there is to know about English, and that only took about 15 years. There is no reason to think that we can’t learn everything about Spanish in a 45-minute class in a year or so. In the rare occasion that you are so bored that you actually do homework, don’t worry about bringing it to class with you.

7. Don’t come to class except on Fridays and when we’re playing games. On those days when you do attend, don’t come on time.

6. Never bring anything to class that is remotely related to Spanish. If you bring them, then you won’t have room in your pocket/bag to carry your chips, soda, and phone.

5. Remember: paying attention is a waste of time. It causes you to learn stuff and that might cause a personal crisis. Especially when the song is playing, those catchy tunes and lyrics have a way popping up when you least expect them!

4. Only talk when the teacher is talking. Bonus points on the failure scale if you talk really loud after the teacher has asked you specifically to be quiet. Double bonus points if you never speak in class - even in English.

3. The one thing that would help you the most, and so therefore should be avoided whenever possible, is speaking Spanish. After all, you already learned to count on Sesame Street. You’ve learned your basic phrases with Dora the Explorer and you have perfected your pronunciation with “Yo quiero Taco Bell”. Who needs more practice than that?!

2. Never ever, ever study or review! This might cause you to remember material that you didn’t hear in class when you were daydreaming. If and when you are forced you to study, or when you are so bored that you actually look at your friend’s notes, be sure to do it only 5 minutes before you take the test.

1. And the #1 way to absolutely put you on the failure track… Avoid asking questions or getting help at all costs!! No matter how confused you get, no matter how many times your teacher asks you if you understand, don’t EVER ask questions. Who knows the kind of emergency that can create? Who knows if the teacher even knows the answer to questions that aren’t in the teacher’s text! For Pete’s sake, this is NOT the time to find out!!!
