Spanish

Course summary

Spanish is the second most spoken language in the world with 400 million native speakers and official status in 21 countries in South, Central and North America, as well as Africa and Europe. Its cultural richness goes hand in hand with its potential in the world of work. While Spain is still the UK’s eighth largest goods export market, the real scope for growth is in the emerging countries of Latin America: Argentina, Chile, Colombia and Mexico. This subject will help you to develop your interest and awareness of Hispanic language and culture and therefore to gain an understanding of a globalised word. With this A level, you will not only learn how to communicate at a higher level in Spanish, but you will also develop your general study skills. All students are encouraged to take risks and learn from their own mistakes, so step out of your comfort zone and experience the joy of speaking another language.
