Schedule

This course is designed as a continuation of the Beginner Level 1 programme and so is ideal for students who have completed the level 1 course, or have some existing basic knowledge of Spanish.  We’ll focus on developing your conversation skills through a mixture of role plays, games and dialogues – and will help you to improve your listening, reading and writing abilities in a fun and relaxed setting.  

Syllabus:

You will learn how to talk to others about your daily life, including what you do for work and what your habits and hobbies are. You’ll learn how to ask someone for their opinion and to give yours in return, how to tell the time, and how to read Spanish recipes and newspaper articles.  We’ll also start to introduce the past tense, so you can speak about your day and what you did in the past.

This course is ideal if you have already completed the beginner level programmes 1 to 3, or have a good working knowledge of Spanish.  You will start to progress from speaking basic Spanish to having more in depth conversations through fun, interactive group work sessions, role plays and themed lessons.  We will also start to look at how tone of voice can be used in Spanish to portray different meanings.

Syllabus:

Together with your classmates you’ll learn how to provide more in depth information about yourself and others.  For example how to talk about likes and dislikes, your ideal home, members of your family and what’s in fashion.  We will start to use possessive pronouns (e.g. mine, yours, hers, theirs) and look at how simply changing your tone of voice can express different meanings such as irony and sincerity.
