Course content
Spanish Semester II, (A2) is addressed to students with few previous knowledge. We work with Nuevo Español en Marcha A1-A2.
The topics that will be discussed are mainly those from everyday life.
Using a variety of texts, translations and other exercises, the students will learn to talk about the world of business.
Attention will be given in particular to the following topics:
a) Grammar:
- Past tense: "Imperfecto", "Perfect" and "Indefinido"
- Simple future
- Comparison
- Pronouns
b) Oral expression: Presentation of a Latin American country or a region from Spain. (10 minutes)
The main objective of the course is to improve the students' writing and oral language capabilities. By business- related exercises the students will extend their vocabulary.
