World Language Initiative- MT

This class is an intermediate Spanish class for students with significant previous experience with Spanish language. From the instructor: "This course is designed for people who feel very confident communicating in basic Spanish and would like to increase their vocabulary and achieve a higher level of fluency. In this course, you will have the opportunity to build confidence and competence by accessing your previous knowledge, sharing your experiences, and discussing cross-cultural topics."

Our classes are designed around the dynamic, research-based communicative language teaching approach, which allows you to learn language through exposure to and use of language in a relaxed, authentic environment. This is in contrast to more traditional models, which focus more heavily on grammar and vocabulary lists. As a student in our classes, be prepared to listen, speak, read, write, interact, and practice using the language as you build your skills and grow confidence.

• Classes are held in our classroom at the Emerson Center for the Ars (suite 204).

Makeup Class Policy: If a scheduled class must be canceled due to a coach's absence or other unforeseen circumstances, a makeup class will be provided. The makeup class will be scheduled at a time that best accommodates the majority of students, typically by adding a class at the end of the session. Please note that if you are unable to attend the makeup class, we will not be able to offer a refund for the missed class. In case of emergencies, please contact the program coordinator for our appeal document to be eligible for a discount on a future class.
