This article offers an alternative to the two approaches to teaching Spanish to adolescent and college level bilingual native speakers interested in developing their Spanish abilities. The argument is made that both the “limited normative” and the ‘comprehensive” approaches to Spanish for native speakers (SM) strongly reflect synthetic and banking education curricular perspectives Consequently, students are denied a voice in a curriculum that ignores social, historical and individual matters of concern. An alternative approach to SNS is identified and discussed This approach draws heavily from Paulo Freire’s problem-posing procedure for critical dialogue and Lev Vigotsky’s theory of social learning. The Freirian perspective gives primacy to critical action and action, with language development as a by-product of authentic purposeful social interaction among students and between the teacher and the students about topics that matter to students The Vigotskian perspective shows why social interaction leads to individual laming and language development. Together , the two perspectives offer a viable alternative to extant approaches to teaching Spanish to native bilingual speaker
