This is NWR but I'm desperate ... please bare with me! I am sorry ... SPANISH SPEAKING LADIES ...

First of all, thank you for potentially helping me break down a language barrier to help my students!!


Tomorrow I have parent teacher conferences ... can you help me translate a few things???

I can read spanish pretty well ...

I would like to say:

Hi, my name is Ms Lucas. Thank you for taking the time to come tonight. Regretfully, I don't speak Spanish but I wanted to make an effort to communicate with you in your language.

*You can change whatever you need to ... or if you have anything to add that would be great.*

Also how do I say ...

Your child missed _____ homework assignments. Homework is an important part of my class and I'd like to see an imporovement in this area. I could use your help. Your son/daughter records their homework in their agenda each day. You may want to check it on a nightly basis to make sure its being done. If we work together I think we can help your son/daughter's grades improve in the future.


WOW if anyone does this I would be so thankful. I also have a list of positive things that I can say but feel free to add anything.

THANK YOU
THANK YOU
THANK YOU

I am going to give this to my principal so spelling and grammar are important. I will of course give you credit.

I can't vouch for how accurate this is, but I love Google Translator...

Tu niño faltó asignaciones de la preparación del _____. La preparación es una parte importante de mi clase y quisiera ver un imporovement en esta área. Podría utilizar tu ayuda. Tu hijo/hija registra su preparación en su agenda cada día. Puedes desear comprobarlo sobre cada noche una base para cerciorarse de su que es hecho. Si me trabajamos juntos pensar que podemos ayudar a tus grados del hijo/de la hija para mejorar en el futuro

ETA- I just read the last line of your post... i hope this can still help a bit!

OK, if grammar etc is important, do NOT use this translation. This is why I get so upset with online translators I'm a native spanish speaker, so here's some help:


Hola, mi nombre es Señora Lucas. Gracias por venir esta noche. Aunque no hablo español, quiero hacer un esfuerzo de comunicar con usted en español.

Su hijo/hija no entregó ____ tareas. Las tareas son una parte muy importante de mi clase y quisiera ver un mejoramiento en esta área. Podría usar su ayuda - Su hijo/hija anota las tareas en su agenda cada día. Me gustaría que usted revise la agenda cada noche para verificar que las tareas están hechas. Si trabajamos juntos, pienso que podemos ayudar a mejorar los grados de su hijo/hija en el futuro.

I was just about to say the same thing. Glad to see you got more of an accurate translation.

Perfect! Use MrsQ-in2007's translation! the free translater is good if you need help translating a word....not a whole sentence or paragraph.

good luck!
