Who This Course Is For

This course is designed for adults who have completed Low Beginner Spanish or have studied Spanish before and can already hold a short conversation about familiar topics. If you can ask and answer everyday questions, describe your routine, and use common verbs in the present tense, you’re ready to build on those skills.

You’ll practice giving fuller answers, asking follow-up questions, and keeping a conversation going. With just 3–6 students, you’ll have plenty of time to speak, listen, and get feedback from your instructor.

What You’ll Learn

  • Talk about weekend activities, recent experiences, and upcoming plans.

  • Give directions, make arrangements, and handle everyday situations like ordering food or shopping.

  • Express preferences and opinions, and explain your reasons in simple Spanish.

  • Connect your ideas using words such as porque (because), pero (but), and entonces (so).

  • Listen to short, natural dialogues and practice picking out the main idea and key details.

You’ll also explore how Spanish is used in everyday life across Spanish-speaking communities, from greetings and polite requests to food and local traditions.

By the End of the Course

You’ll be able to take part in longer exchanges on familiar topics, share more detail about your life and plans, and ask for clarification when you miss something. The course builds the speaking and listening skills you’ll use at the Low Intermediate level.
