Learning objectives

Course objectives:
- To update participants' knowledge of Spanish and improve their linguistic competence in Spanish.
- To offer a space for resolving linguistic doubts and to deepen the knowledge of problematic aspects of Spanish.
- To broaden and update socio-cultural knowledge of Spanish history and the Arab heritage in Granada/Andalusia.
- To update the knowledge of the reality of today's Spain.

Methodology & assessment

Methodology:
Our Intensive 20 course is focused on the development of linguistic competence. A special focus is placed on linguistic questions and doubts. In addition, participants will be able to expand their knowledge of the most problematic grammatical aspects. The course will focus on mainly practical tasks and activities, encouraging linguistic immersion and reflection on the learning process.

For native Spanish teachers we replace the Intensive 20 course with a private programme on practical methodology in the classroom (2 private lessons of 45 minutes per day from Monday to Friday).
