Learning
Spanish for Adult True Beginners (Levels Three & Four) is the continuation and culmination of our introductory Spanish course for adults who are new to the language.
Students begin their Spanish learning journey by covering Level Three skills —starting with action verbs for descriptions (ser/estar), commands, and expressing one’s abilities. As the course progresses, learners are introduced to the preterite grammatical tense and gradually move towards talking about their actions in the past.
Classes are interactive and supportive. Each lesson includes guided practice, speaking practice, activities such as singing, drawing, breakout rooms, and using different language learning apps. The pace is steady and designed to support different learning styles.
By the end of the course, students will be able to understand and produce basic Spanish sentences and feel more confident in holding a simple conversation.
