Spanish Beginners, Level 1

This interactive course provides an opportunity for those with little to no knowledge of this romance language to develop conversational skills in a relaxed, non-competitive atmosphere. By the end of this level, you will have some elementary vocabulary and be able to understand, ask and answer questions using simple sentences. This course will cover greeting and farewells, making phone calls, ordering in restaurants, talking about you and your family and other simple topics. You will learn the alphabet and Spanish sounds, numbers, days and months, colours, telling time, adjectives, possession and some verbs in the present tense.
