Bienvenido/a
to the
Spanish Class!
Did you know that Spanish is the second most spoken language in the world after Mandarin Chinese and the second most spoken language in the United States?
This is going to be an introductory course. During these classes, you can expect to learn a lot about Spanish lenguage and his culture. You are going to learn through stories and we like to tell stories too. In addition, we are going to learn a little Spanish vocabulary and grammar.
The Spanish language is inextricably linked to its speakers and their cultures. Using comprehension-based methods of language teaching and an orientation toward proficiency, The Somos Curriculum teaches language and culture simultaneously, allowing Spanish students the opportunity to develop cultural understanding at a depth rarely achieved in beginning language courses.
Example topics:
Cumbia and the cultural diversity of Latin America
Bullfighting in Spain: culture or torture?
Foods and flavors in Latin American cuisine
