This Spanish Course is designed for expats being a non-intesive spanish course of 4 classes per week. Once your Spanish level is determined you can book for your course on your suitable level and schedule.

Goals and contents: The goals of the extensive spanish course are the same ones as for the general intensive courses (101, 103). However, the residential conditions of the participants determines the activities in the classroom to be more focused on practicing grammar, vocabulary and structured communication, always in function of the communicative living in Granada student’s needs. The reduced number of participants per class (maximum 6) enhances an accustomed programming of these goals.

Language Level and Learning Process: we offer progressive programs of 16 hours monthly and 6 language levels according to the official MCER (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, C1, C2). On the attached illustration where learning rhythms can be verified, in 48 classes of the extensive course are studied the contents of 4 weeks of the intensive courses (80 classes), deducing the residential condition of the participants on the extensive course.
