DESCRIPTION
This course is designed for students who wish to achieve a basic level of Spanish. The structure of the course focuses particularly on basic strategies and structures for communicating on daily situations. By carrying out specific tasks you will develop and improve different skills necessary for communication. In class you are required to use Spanish in order to solve activities that demand communicative exchanges. These individual or group-based tasks will offer you contexts for exploring and synthesizing vocabulary, grammar structures or language functions necessary for accomplishing the activity.
The course reveals the close link between language and culture. By completing different types of tasks such as field studies or onsite research, you will explore and contrast cultural aspects which define Spanish society. By the end of the course, you are expected to master vocabulary and grammar structures in order to be able to: understand and use familiar everyday expressions and very basic phrases aimed at the satisfaction of needs of a concrete type; introduce yourself and others; ask and answer questions about personal details such as where you live, people you know and things you have; interact in a simple way provided the other person speaks slowly and clearly and is prepared to help.
This course is taught in a virtual format by one of CEA's onsite instructors from across our 8 study center locations.
