These innovative courses are for people who have studied Spanish but still find it challenging to participate in real conversations with native Spanish speakers. We focus on auhentic colloquial language, spoken at normal native-speaker speed.
Enjoy your Spanish!
Many people find listening comprehension the most difficult aspect of language learning. That’s why our courses focus on authentic speech and colloquial language.
Each course consists of engaging video-lessons based on clips from popular movies, TV programmes, documentaries, or short stories in podcast format. Each lesson comes with interesting study materials and online activities linked to the videos or podcasts. You will hear authentic Spanish at normal native-speaker speed, and you’ll learn many expressions that you can use in order to sound more natural. Our virtual teachers explain the vocabulary, the expressions and some points of grammar that come up in the lessons. They also explain the historical and cultural content, which is just as important as the linguistic content when you participate in conversation with native speakers.

This course is based on clips from a very popular Spanish movie about the unlikely romance between young Andalusian man and a young Basque woman. They have very sterotypical ideas about each other, and are so different that they could be from different planets. The movie is very funny and you will want to see the whole thing!
