7:30-8:30 am Survival Spanish II for Intermediate Students:
This class begins where Survival Spanish I ended and will begin with a review of the lessons learned in the previous class. Students who feel comfortable with conjugation of regular “ar” verbs and students who can conduct simple conversation in Spanish are ready for this class, which will introduce common irregular verbs and will build vocabulary and conversational skills. Though the class will focus mainly on the verbs in the present tense, it will introduce some common forms of the past tense.
12-1 pm Survival Spanish I for Beginning Students:
This is an introductory Spanish class for those who have no background in Spanish or who would find value in reviewing the essential elements of beginning Spanish all over again. No previous knowledge of Spanish is required. Have you ever said the words: “I wish I could speak Spanish,” and meant them? Would you like to cover the elementary steps of Spanish again or for the first time? If so, this workshop may be your best opportunity. This class will start at square one and provide you with the following:
● A fun and relaxed approach to learning Spanish through practice:
◘ More effectively pronounce Spanish words and phrases
