Do you want to be able to speak Spanish at a basic level when visiting Spain or a Spanish speaking country?
This Beginners Modular course will help you to speak Spanish at a basic level.
You can start with either Module A or B. Module C reinforces the language covered in the other modules and therefore is not for complete beginners. You can join Module C if you have some basic previous knowledge (around 40h of study).
This is an opportunity to practise speaking Spanish and develop your language and vocabulary face to face with your tutor and other students.
Module B
By the end of the course, you will be able to
- Express greetings and personal information (Introductory Session)
- Use numbers (to learn the time)
- Ask for/use direction and traveling information
- Shop for items around the place you visit/live
- Basic grammar will be studied. You will learn to use expressions and forms appropriate to the language using verbs at present tense, gender, prepositions and adjectives.
You may be given homework (1 hr max) each week to reinforce classroom learning.
Who is the tutor?
About the Tutor: Hilary Jenkins-Baldock
How will I be taught?
The focus will be on speaking and listening. Some reading and writing will also be included. Pronunciation and Hispanic culture are an integral part of the course. The course will be conducted mainly in the foreign language. Learners will work through different activities individually, in pairs and in small groups, using a variety of learning methods and resources (role-play and games etc). Homework set will provide an opportunity for self-study.
Initial assessment will be carried out at the beginning of the course to assess individual skill level. Each student' starting point will be recorded on an Individual Learning Plan (ILP) to set targets. This will be revisited regularly during the course to monitor and record your progress. Tutors will give written or verbal feedback.
What do I need to bring with me?
The course book will be discussed at the first session if appropriate. Students will need to bring a pen and paper and an A4 ring binder for handouts, although we advise students not to buy anything until after the first session.
What can I do next?
After completing this module you can continue with another available modular course.
The appropriate follow-on course after completion of at least two modules is a Beginners Plus course. The tutor will be able to advise or check www.kentadulteducation.co.uk.
What do I need to join the course
This course is for students with no previous knowledge or those with a little basic knowledge or vocabulary who want to consolidate at a Beginners’ pace. If you are unsure please carry out our self-assessment test available on www.kentadulteducation.co.uk. This provides a score to help you chose the best course for you. If still unsure, speak to us or to a Curriculum Leader.
