ELEMENTARY SPANISH I

This course is part of a proficiency-based language program designed to provide maximum opportunities for students to develop functional listening, speaking, reading and writing skills in beginning Spanish. This goal will be realized through maximum exposure to authentic target language input (oral and visual), active oral and written practice of real-life language tasks or functions (conversing with an exchange student, completing forms, etc.) and exploration of cultural subtleties conveyed by language, thought and customs. This course is intended for students with little or no fluency in Spanish.
