Foreign Language & Culture (Act 48)

Spanish for the Classroom

Rest assured that this course won't be your typical high school Spanish course. We've tossed out long vocabulary lists and complex grammar rules and replaced them with games and stories to make learning easy, painless, and even fun. In addition to basic greetings and general Spanish vocabulary, you'll master words and phrases that directly relate to the classroom, such as classroom objects, front-office receptions, action verbs and commands, study skills, registration, course names, school rules and discipline, and parent-teacher conference vocabulary. By the end of this course, you'll be well on your way to being a Spanish speaker and communicating effectively with the Spanish-speakers all around you. Vamos! (Let's go!)

Get a glimpse of what it's like to go through the ups and downs of culture shock. Learn the symptoms, stages, and strategies to cope with it.
