Spanish for Communication I

As the first in a seven-level language series, Level I is aimed at total beginners. In a highly interactive, lively classroom environment, students learn to perform simple tasks in the present tense, such as making greetings and introductions, describing basic characteristics, asking questions, telling time, and using numbers. Participants actively engage in role playing, share information with each other, and write simple compositions using the Spanish language. Correct pronunciation and use of basic, common phrases are emphasized as learners gain cultural insights into the Spanish-speaking world. Textbook chapters 1, 2 and half of chapter 3 are covered.

Note: Requirement for the Professional Certificate in Spanish Language.
