Welcome to Spanish 232 Topics

Spanish 232 Special Topics Courses allow students the flexibility to pursue an alternative to the traditional 232 courses offered in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures while still meeting the LSA foreign language requirement. 

While all the courses differ thematically, the main goal is to provide the students with ample cultural experience to satisfactorily reach the desired level of proficiency in the Spanish Language.

Resources

The website of the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures (RLL) is a space where you can explore options such as majors and minors in Spanish, study abroad opportunities, tutors and other language learning resources, and scholarships. 

You can also make an appointment to meet with an RLL advisor to discuss your interests.

The Language Resource Center (LRC) is located in the basement in North Quad. You may be using the facilities to work on web-based activities, view films, or to receive free peer tutoring with the Spanish Club. 

For your convenience, the LRC has a great collection of textbooks and other reference materials that you can use in-house. It also provides you with a database of conversation partners and tutors.

The Spanish Club is a student run organization focusing on the Spanish language and Hispanic/Latinx culture. 

The club offers resources to students such as conversation hours, and free peer tutoring. (In Fall 2020, conversation hours, and tutoring are online.)

The club also holds monthly meetings and sponsors recreational events.

Times and days for tutoring and conversation hours vary each semester. For information, visit the Spanish Club Maize Page or Facebook Page, or contact spanishclubeboard@umich.edu.

Tertulia is a great opportunity to practice speaking with students of different levels in a fun and friendly environment.

During the first weeks of class, your instructor will provide the time and other information so that you can connect with others.
