DESCRIPTION
This course is designed for students who wish to achieve a basic level of Spanish. The structure of the course focuses particularly on basic strategies and structures for communicating on daily situations. By carrying out specific tasks you will develop and improve different skills necessary for communication. In class students are required to use Spanish in order to solve activities that demand communicative exchanges. These individual or group-based tasks will offer students context for exploring and synthesizing vocabulary, grammar structures or language functions necessary for accomplishing the activity.
