Spanish Language (Proficiency)

Module code: SP3010

Language study will be based on an integrated communicative approach and will be placed in a context that relates to contemporary life, society and culture in Spain and the broader Spanish-speaking world. There are three contact hours per week dedicated to developing all of the main language skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking).

A wide range of teaching and learning methods, materials and resources is used throughout the course to support different learning styles. Preparation and independent study tasks set by the tutor will form an essential part of the learning process. Small-group teaching and the use of virtual learning environments will optimise your progress and bring you up to C1 level of the common European Framework for languages (CEFR).
