Would you like to learn to speak Spanish at a high pace? At the University of Groningen Language Centre, you can follow Spanish beginners courses and become acquainted with the Spanish language and culture. We offer Spanish courses both on location in Groningen and online. Our teaching method for the Spanish beginners course focuses on speaking and understanding the Spanish language. With this method, you will quickly feel at home in this beautiful language and you will automatically expand your grammar knowledge and vocabulary.
Who is this course for?

This course is for beginners of Spanish. During the course, we work towards CEFR level A1. The course is taught in Spanish as much as possible, with explanations provided in Dutch or English depending on the group participants. It is therefore important that you have a good command of English in order to participate in the course.

What will you learn in this course?

The course comprises 12 lessons. One lesson lasts 2 hours in a course on location and 1.5 hours in an online course. During the course, you will learn, among other things:

  • The alphabet
  • Pronunciation
  • Vocabulary
  • Present tense; regular, irregular, and reflexive verbs
How many hours of independent study are required?

To properly keep up with the course, you will have to take into account a total of 30 hours of self-study for this course on location, or 36 hours of self-study for the online course. Self-study mainly comprises grammar exercises, vocabulary development, and listening exercises. You will also be asked to do a reading or writing exercise every now and again.

What will you be able to do after the course?
  • Talk about yourself: where you are from, your age, and your job or what you are studying
  • Hold a conversation about your hobbies and interests
  • Describe people
  • Order something at a bar or a restaurant
  • Ask or say how much something costs

After successfully completing this course, you will be ready for the follow-up course Spanish A1>A2!

It is important that you buy this version of the book including access to Campus Difusión, as this is where the homework assignments are given.

Rosetta Stone

A Rosetta Stone independent study account is a great tool to use alongside the course. You can also use it to keep working on your language skills even after the course has finished. Please note that a Rosetta Stone account is not compulsory for the course and will not be used by the teacher, but it can give your language learning an extra boost!
