What Advanced (C1+) Spanish means

At C1+ Spanish, learners can express complex ideas precisely, understand nuance and adapt their language to different contexts.

  • Qualify an argument

    Si bien el argumento resulta convincente en términos generales, pasa por alto varias consecuencias imprevistas.

    While the argument is broadly convincing, it overlooks several unintended consequences.

  • Convey nuance

    No me opongo a la propuesta en sí; lo que cuestiono es la forma precipitada de aplicarla.

    I do not oppose the proposal itself; what I question is the rushed way it is being implemented.

  • Adapt your register

    Le agradecería que reconsiderara la decisión a la luz de la información adicional adjunta.

    I would be grateful if you would reconsider the decision in light of the additional information attached.

These are general examples of language use at this level, not a description of any individual course syllabus.

About this course

The course refreshes previously studied Spanish through authentic material on current affairs, society and culture, alongside revision of complex grammar structures. A diagnostic session using conversation, reading and listening comprehension helps shape the programme around the group’s needs. Teaching prioritises spoken interaction and communication, with pair work, group activities, role plays and games. Learners also practise reading newspaper articles and short stories, understanding audio and video, and taking part in discussions and debates. Written homework is recommended to reinforce classroom work.

What you'll learn

  • Express yourself more accurately in Spanish
  • Read newspaper articles and short stories
  • Understand authentic audio and video materials
  • Take part in discussions and debates about Spanish-speaking culture
