"¿Cómo se va .......?" is just as correct as "¿Cómo se llega.....?"

It just depends on if you want to say "How does one go" or "How does one arrive"

You just need to make up some directions as an answer for each question of the homework that you should do.

So, how does "¿Cómo se va de tú escuela?" translate? The "de" sill is a matter of confusion for me. - Esteban3304, May 21, 2012
Oops, "still is a matter of confusion". Sorry for the typo. - Esteban3304, May 21, 2012
"irse" means leave, so I think it is asking how you get FROM .... TO ..... It's a good question, I just didn't understand it. - Esteban3304, May 21, 2012
Esteban, I hate to correct you, but "tú" should not have an accent here. It should be "tu," which is the possesive pronoun versus the subject pronoun (you versus your). - Jota8326, May 21, 2012
No hay problema. Gracias. - Esteban3304, May 21, 2012

None of these sentences seem to be correct in Spanish. Are the sentences trying to ask how one gets to your school, to the cafeteria, etc.? If that is the intended meaning of the sentences, then you first have to replace "se va" with "llega". That translates literally into "How does one arrive at .... " So you might want to change the sentences and then repost your question.

OK. Now that I understand what it is saying in Spanish, it is an exercise in giving directions. Use "doble a la derecha (a la izquierda)" to say "turn right or left". "SIga derecho hasta la caille ___" to say "go straight until you reach ____ Street " - Esteban3304, May 21, 2012
"Vaya ____" (in the blank goes North, South, East, West) to say "Head in a certain direction". - Esteban3304, May 21, 2012
Other useful words are: "está al lado del banco" next to the bank. "frente de la escuela" facing the school. "en frente de" means in front of something. "camine seis cuadras" is the command for "walk 6 blocks". - Esteban3304, May 21, 2012
adelante = in front of, de bajo de = in back of. "las luces" or "la intersección", "justo de la esquina" = around the corner - Esteban3304, May 21, 2012
