Spanish Lower Intermediate
This is an engaging Spanish language course in which you will learn specially how to use the different past tenses that we have in Spanish. You will also talk about leisure activities that you used to do in the past, and describe people and situations in the past tense, explaining histories as well. This means that by the end of the course, you will be able to use the Indefinido, Imperfecto and Perfecto past tenses with confidence.

The lower intermediate course is based on the communicative approach so you will learn through the context itself, by simulating real-life situations and also playing games, watching videos, reading texts and much more.

The Lower Intermediate course requires you to have some understanding of grammar, some fluency, and the ability to have simple conversations with native speakers about yourself, family, friends and situations in the past, present and future. You must have been studying Spanish for a minimum of 5 years and be above GCSE level as approximately 80 percent of the lessons are conducted in Spanish. If you are not sure about your level, please, do the level test embedded in the site.

If you are not sure about your level or have not studied Spanish in the last two years, we recommend that you complete our level test before enrolling.
