  • Is this course for you?

    The course is for the complete beginner who would like to learn Spanish for their holidays and have a desire to learn Spanish and have fun whilst doing so.

    You should have:

    • Commitment to the learning
    • A love of Spain and its cultural aspects
    • A willingness to participate in class activities with peers and to complete homework tasks
    • Confidence to speak aloud in class in Spanish
    • A willingness to embrace grammar aspects

  • What skills will I develop?

    You will learn essential language skills for holidays. The course is topic based, using situations relevant to holidays.

    You will learn greetings, numbers and currency, dates and times, booking tickets, making hotel reservations, shopping and ordering a meal. As well as listening, reading and speaking, a little writing will be necessary, although the emphasis is upon oral communication.

    Digital: learners will be able to use tablets, if they wish, to access the core course resource (BBC Talk Spanish 1). Various websites will be used to enhance the learning and learners will watch video and YouTube clips and access online language games. Emails will be exchanged between tutor and learners for updates and queries.

    A Smartboard will be used in class and learners will use the Internet for research of topics as well as Google Classroom for tutor/learner, learner/tutor and learner/learner communication.
