Communication involves listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
You will improve your Spanish by listening to the instructor speak Spanish, by producing Spanish in small groups and with the whole class, by reading and writing in Spanish and by seeking opportunities to use Spanish outside the classroom. Among other things, you should learn to describe yourself and your surroundings, discuss future plans, talk about the present tense and talk a little about the past. This course requires active in-class participation on your part. It also requires a significant amount of work outside of class . You should come to class each day with the homework assignments completed.
