Spanish language courses in Granada
|
|
 The courses run from Monday to Friday. One hour means 45 academic minutes. On national holidays there will be no classes. On regional and local holidays there will be class or extra activities.
The size of each group varies from 3 to a maximum of 8, so that each student has the opportunity for active participation. Even if the minimum number of participants is not reached, the class will take place, but the time of the class will be decreased.
In Intensive courses up to five different levels are offered at the beginning of each course, ranging from beginners to advanced.
A test taken on the first Monday of the course, together with an informal conversation, will be used to assess your ability. Your own self-assessment on the registration form, together with the result of this test will help us to determine which level is most suitable. It is usually possible to change levels during the course.
A certificate which confirms the type of course, duration, intensity and level will be awarded to those regularly attending the language course.

CONVERSATION EXCHANGE PROGRAM (Granada 1 & 2)
Our school will put you in contact with a student from Granada, who studies your language so you can both practise. It is an excellent way to improve your Spanish and meet new people. You only need to tell our office your needs.
This is a free service offered to students with previous knowledge of Spanish, who will stay in the school for a minimum of 6 weeks. For external reasons we cannot guarantee the exchange every time it is requested.
The following description is provided to assist you when choosing the suitable level. We will send you a level test with the confirmation of the course booking.
BEGINNERS (A)
This course is intended for absolute beginners offering an introduction to basic elements of the Spanish language. Explanations of the more complex grammatical structures will be provided in English. Grammar Focus: ser and estar; present, perfect and future forms of regular and irregular verbs. Communicative exercices, role-play and informal expressions are also taught to help you to use Spanish in everyday situations.
 PRE-INTERMEDIATE (B)
After some revision and consolidation of the basics, the course focuses on the forms and usage of the past tenses (imperfecto and indefinido). Authentic material such as easy newspaper articles, comics, songs and simple literature will also be used. Conversational practice will increase your confidence to take part in simple discussions.
INTERMEDIATE (C) and UPPER-INTERMEDIATE (D)
The learning of a language is closely associated with the culture, history, society and politics of the country. For this reason we will examine demanding texts and teaching material in order to create an authentic picture of modern Spain (and to some extent Latin America). Humour, songs, lifestyle, culture, history, literature, film, expressions and also suggestions from students are all part of the programme. The development of conversational skills is of particular importance. You will learn to speak more confidently in a variety of situations. The grammatical focus of level C is on the indicative tenses and an introduction to the subjuntivo. The grammatical focus of level D is on the correct usage of the subjuntivo in all tenses.
ADVANCED (E)
This level is intended for those students who are already confident in Spanish and would like to increase and perfect their language skills. The students will be able to discuss with the teachers the themes they would like to tackle. Typical grammatical problems which are made by non-native speakers, as well as the perífrasis verbales will be studied and rectified. You will therefore learn to express your ideas in a more precise manner, lending your Spanish a more authentic sound.
