Required Level: Intermediate
Duration: 2-4 weeks

Course Details:

60 hours of instruction: 40 hours Fundamentals of Spanish small group sessions and 20 hours customized private Spanish for Business classes.

The group classes emphasize Spanish fundamentals to learn, review and enhance the student's abilities for general conversation, thus making business lessons far more effective. You'll take four hours of small group fundamentals classes daily followed by a private Spanish for Business class.

Classes use a combination of written grammar exercises, listening activities, conversation, debates, songs, games and plenty of chances to speak, speak, speak (and, of course, laugh!!) Your individual classes will focus on your particular area of business, and your professor will tailor them to cover specifically what you tell us you want to learn in your pre-trip evaluation.

Prepare to have fun, learn more Spanish than you think you can, make new friends, see amazing sights, and open your mind to a whole new way of living life and doing business!
