This is a continuation course which started in September but learners with the right level are welcome to join. Please contact the centre if you need more information.

This course is designed for learners who have already completed 1 year of part time study before joining the class or who can get by in everyday situations (ordering food, shopping, providing personal information, asking for and giving directions, etc.).  

The aim is to develop your confidence in talking in Spanish on a variety of topics as well as to expand your knowledge of the culture of the Spanish speaking countries. The emphasis will be on listening and speaking but will also include some grammar and written work.
