About this course
The course develops Spanish through structured coursebook work and communicative practice. Learners talk about family and friends, describe personalities, express likes and dislikes, discuss eating habits, and practise ordering food and getting service in bars and restaurants. Teaching takes place in Spanish throughout, with visual support and carefully managed language. Lessons include role-plays, speaking games, cultural activities and a short presentation, alongside systematic work on vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar such as possessive adjectives, gustar and direct object pronouns.
What you'll learn
- Describe family members, friends and personalities using relevant vocabulary and possessive adjectives
- Express, compare and ask about likes and dislikes using gustar and related expressions
- Order food and ask for information about dishes in Spanish
- Use common phrases and direct object pronouns in bar and restaurant situations
- Discuss eating habits and compare food and drink traditions across the Hispanic world
- Apply course vocabulary and grammar in a short presentation and extended role-play
Is this course right for you?
The course is intended for adults who have completed Spanish Level 2 or an equivalent course. It involves regular speaking and paired or group communication, with a slower pace and additional consolidation for learners who prefer more time to practise than a faster-format class provides.
- Aimed at learners aged 18 and over
Before you go
- The course uses Aula Internacional Plus 1, Libro del alumno A1, Units 5 and 7. Learners who have not completed a previous course using this book may need to purchase it.
