Abstract

Level B2 (global scale of the Europena Council). Fluency in communication and clear argumentation of written ideas.

Objective

The course aims a complementarity of the paradigm grammar/oral communication. A particular emphasis will be given to the use of tenses and moods. The cultural diversity in the different Spanish-speaking regions of the world will be emphasized. We will use mass media original documents, among others.

Content

We will systematically train the subordinate sentences of different types, with a special emphasis on correlation of tenses and moods. A review of ser/estar as well as prepositions will be included in the program. As far as oral communication is concerned, we will take topics from our semestral reading to focus them under a personal an contemporary perspective.

Resources

Literature

We will use material created and/or adapted by the teacher. We will also read a novel by a contemporary Latin American author. Details will be given at the beginning of semester. A small fee will be asked for photocopies.
