COURSE OVERVIEW
Our Spanish Advanced course is for you if you have already completed at least 2 years of previous study of the language in an adult setting. The main aim of this course is to consolidate your use of basic language structures and vocabulary by for example practising talking about the past and future in Spanish. You will also learn more about Spanish culture, literature and history. We will spend a lot of time on oral work, so you will have plenty of opportunity to speak Spanish in class in a safe and friendly atmosphere.
Designed to increase your confidence in using Spanish and to develop your understanding of the language and customs, this Spanish Advanced coursewill help you to build your fluency and use the language with greater confidence in a relaxed environment.
You will revise and consolidate your prior knowledge of the language and will continue to learn to communicate effectively in everyday situations using all four language skills: speaking, writing, listening and reading. Examples of topics covered during this course:
· Talking about personal information
· Taking part in small group discussion about current topics
· Analysing literary works in Spanish
· Everyday Spanish life, customs and culture
· The main verb tenses in Spanish, including the present, the past and the future plus the subjunctive
On this 20 week part-time course you will have ample opportunity to learn to deal with authentic situations that you might realistically encounter whilst travelling in Spain or Spanish speaking countries.
