Are you already able to express yourself well in Spanish and do you enjoy the language so much that you want to learn more? Then this Spanish course at the University of Groningen Language Centre is the right course for you. In this course at an intermediate level, you will learn to speak better Spanish and you will build on your existing knowledge of grammar. The teacher will also tell you about the culture of the Spanish-speaking world.
Who is this course for?

This course is for participants at a pre-intermediate level of Spanish at CEFR level A2. During the course, we work towards level A2/B1. 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.

If you are unsure whether this level is right for you, you can test yourself online using the placement test! Alternatively, make an appointment for the online consultation to get personal advice from our teacher.

What will you learn in this course?

The course consists of 12 lessons of two hours each, during which the following topics will be covered:

  • More vocabulary
  • The conditional tense
  • The imperative
  • The past tenses: pretérito perfecto, indefinido, imperfecto, and pluscuamperfecto
How many hours of independent study are required?

You should expect to spend a total of 30 hours on independent study in order to stay on track with the course. This involves, for example, completing assignments from the book and on the digital platform Campus Difusión. You will also receive additional material, such as news articles, podcasts, videos, and websites to read, listen to, or watch. All four skills – reading, speaking, writing, and listening – will be covered in your self-study.

What will you be able to do after the course?
  • Accept or decline an invitation
  • Describe and recommend places
  • Give your opinion about films and television
  • Talk about what you did last week
  • Hold a conversation about your physical fitness and health.

After successfully completing this course, you will be ready for the follow-up course Spanish A2/B1>B1.

Course material

During this course, we use the following materials. You will need to purchase these materials yourself:

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.

Would you prefer to work with a paper workbook? The paper version of the workbook can still be ordered via Bol and Libris: Gente hoy 2 - Libro de trabajo - Original version (ISBN: 9788415640387).

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!
