About the Course

This A2-level Spanish course is designed to help you take the next step toward fluency by developing a key skill: expressing yourself clearly and naturally in real-life situations. You'll learn to talk about personal stories, describe past events and express what you're doing in the moment - all while expanding your vocabulary and grammar.

With just 8 hours of content and a hands-on, intensive, approach, the course includes engaging activities, audio clips, real dialogues and progressive learning. Each unit is designed to build your communicative competence, so you can feel confident in personal, work or travel contexts.

Whether you're looking to boost your Spanish for everyday life, travel or integration into Spanish-speaking environments, this course will help you communicate with ease.

*The course is taught entirely in Spanish, so basic knowledge of the language is required to fully enjoy it.
