Description
PRESENTATION
When we talk about Spain we can’t help thinking about the sea and the sun, the gentle character of its people, its fiestas and popular traditions, its territorial contrasts and of course our language and rich gastronomy.
For that reason at Syllabus and through Erasmus+, we want to share an experience that joins the best of our gastronomy and culture with a complete linguistic program for all those interested, either by professional or academic issues, in improving the nuances of their Spanish in Santander, Spain.
Our proposal consolidates the improvement of Spanish language and its culture with the discovering and tasting of Spanish cuisine in an authentic, varied and participatory way thanks to a conceptual program in which subjects are related to one another.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This course is dedicated to all the professional foreign Spanish teachers and non teachers in love with Spanish language, its culture and of course cuisine with a B2 level onwards.
