F502Z Spring 2024 Intermediate Spanish Grammar and Conversation Parts 1—4

F502Z  Intermediate Spanish Grammar and Conversation Parts 1—4
Thursdays, 9:40—11:05, Mar. 28—May 16
Eight sessions
Instructor: Morris Kaplan
Using a helpful textbook and specially curated YouTube videos, Mr. Kaplan teaches Spanish in a fun, interactive, and very effective way. This class will focus on the past, future and conditional tenses and commands. No homework or tests. Just sit back and listen as we do grammar exercises, watch Spanish language videos and speak in Spanish to each other. It’s an easy way to learn how to speak the second most spoken language in America. Learning a foreign language has also been shown to delay or reduce the onset of dementia. This is a year-long course (fall through summer). Part 1 (fall) will be followed by Parts 2 (winter), 3 (spring) and 4 (summer), each continuing where the prior class left off. Required text: Advanced Spanish Step-By-Step by Barbara Bregstein (available on Amazon $12.)
