The course will develop further Spanish language skills, both receptive and productive. Classes on grammatical

skills. In addition students will complete a structured self learning programme

Classes on grammatical and linguistic analysis will contribute to the development of both sets of skills. In addition students will complete a structured self learning programme of aural study and grammatical reinforcement study.
