Pros

  • Presents the information in several different formats, which allows for some flexibility of instruction
  • The linked conjugation exercise is great for basic practice in any Spanish verb tense or mood and includes regular and irregular verbs

Cons

  • While teaching the conjugation separately narrows the focus, this does take it a bit out of context; supplement the resource with instruction on when to use the subjunctive
  • No instructional steps are listed, but the information and other resources are a good starting point for a lesson or can be useful in a flipped classroom
