In this session, we will review a list of phrases in Spanish Teachers could use at work when talking with patients.

In this example, we used the word “maestra” to refer to a female teacher. To use this phrase with a male teacher you would have to change the letter “a” at the end of the word “maestra” for the letter “o” so the word becomes the masculine noun which is “maestro.” So, for a male teacher, the phrase would sound like this: * Hola, soy Robert, Yo voy a ser su maestro. * Hi, my name is Robert, I’ll be your teacher. * Hola, soy Robert, Yo voy a ser su maestro.   Phrase 2 * Hola, soy la Señorita Smith * Hi, I’m Miss Smith * Hola, soy la Señorita Smith   Phrase 3 * ¿Cómo estás? * How are you? * ¿Cómo estás? There are a few common answers to a question like this one, and to make things easier for yourself and the person with whom you’re talking you could follow your question with a few possible answers such as these: Bien – good  Mal – bad Mejor – Better Peor – Worse So, using some of these words,  the question could sound like this: ¿Cómo estás? ¿Bien? How are you? ¿Doing okay? ¿Cómo estás? ¿Bien?   Phrase 4 To ask one of your students about homework you could say: * ¿Has tenido algún problema con la tarea? * Did you have any problems with your homework? * ¿Has tenido algún problema con la tarea?   Phrase 5 * ¿Abran sus libros en la página doscientos treinta y cuatro * Open your books on page 234 * Abran sus libros en la página doscientos treinta y cuatro You can find the full list pf Phrases in the Podcast Upgrade Bonus: Get access to these free bonus materials by signing up for a Free Membership: * Downloadable PDF Guide with sentence by sentence article transcriptions * Video with sentence by sentence transcript and pronunciation voice over * Download link for MP3 Audio file of this session Additionally, you can choose to receive useful Spanish learning materials by email as well as get notified when new Podcast episodes become available, You can access these Members-Only bonus materials by clicking on “signup now” to register over here (or just sign in if you already registered): Click Here to Get Your Bonus Materials Got any questions?

Phrase 1 * Hola, mi nombre es Jessica, Yo voy a ser su enfermera hoy. * Hi, my name is Jessica, I’ll be your nurse today. * Hola, mi nombre es Jessica, Yo voy a ser su enfermera hoy. In this example, we used the word “enfermera” to refer to a female nurse. To use this phrase with a male nurse you would have to change the letter “a” at the end of the word “enfermera” for the letter “o” so the word becomes the masculine noun which is “enfermero.” So, for a male nurse, the phrase would sound like this: * Hola, soy Robert, Yo voy a ser su enfermero hoy. * Hi, my name is Robert, I’ll be your nurse today. * Hola, soy Robert, Yo voy a ser su enfermero hoy.   Phrase 2 * ¿Cómo está hoy? * How are you today? * ¿Cómo está hoy? There are a few common answers to a question like this one, and to make things easier for yourself and the person with whom you’re talking you could follow your question with a few possible answers such as these: * Bien – good * Mal – bad * Mejor – Better * Peor – Worst So, using some of those words,  the question could sound like this: * ¿Cómo está hoy? ¿Bien o mal? * How are you today? ¿Well or not well? * ¿Cómo está hoy? ¿Bien o mal? Another option could be * ¿Cómo está hoy? ¿Mejor o peor? * How are you today? ¿Better or worse? * ¿Cómo está hoy? ¿Mejor o peor? Another way to ask a similar question could be: * ¿Cómo se siente hoy? ¿Mejor o peor? * How are you feeling today? ¿Better or worse? * ¿Cómo se siente hoy? ¿Mejor o peor?   Phrase 3 * Gracias por esperar. Estaba ayudando a otro paciente. * Thank you for waiting. I was helping another patient. * Gracias por esperar. Estaba ayudando a otro paciente.   Phrase 4 * ¿Cómo puedo ayudarle? * How may I help you? * ¿Cómo puedo ayudarle?
