Language courses

Language courses at the elementary and intermediate levels in Spanish are offered on an intensive basis and are taught with an eclectic, functional five-skills approach. This integrated approach simultaneously develops all the fundamental skills: speaking, comprehension, reading, writing and cultural awareness. In language courses, classroom practice in speaking is supplemented by work in the language laboratory.

Our language courses offer students an opportunity to acquire communication skills while developing an awareness and appreciation of Hispanic culture. These courses are designed for students in any field or major that benefits from the ability to communicate in Spanish and knowledge of Hispanic culture and civilization.
