This is a unique programme that combines both general and academic Spanish. This programme is of great value to those planning to study at university or who intend to work in a Spanish-speaking country. Our programme is tailored to students who have not yet entered college or are taking a year off.
It combines a unifying international focus with a multidisciplinary approach, using the foreign language as the sole means of communication thus maximizing classroom time and enabling students to develop their language skills with confidence in the least amount of time.
Students will get a competitive edge through our innovative programme, bringing clarity to their future study, career ambitions and long-term learning goals.
This proven programme has helped many CSL students to reach their Spanish language goals for exam preparation, academics and daily communication.
Students do not require any prior knowledge of Spanish to start.
On successful completion of the programme, students will be able to move on to study for the Certificate in Proficiency in Spanish for International Communication at Mastery levels.
STUDY ABROAD OPPORTUNITIES
Students at the CEFR B2 level will have the option to spend several days away from home at a partner institution abroad and may have the opportunity to work as a language assistant or undertake a work (or volunteering) placement, for a complete and enjoyable educational experience.
