About the group
The Intermediate Spanish group formerly known as Spanish Revision has been running successfully for over 20 years. We would normally meet every Tuesday afternoon in each others’ houses from 2pm to 4pm since April 2020 the group has met regularly via Zoom for one and a half hours. We currently start at 1pm for a one hour class which is led by a native speaker teacher. Stimulating homework tasks involving a short piece of written work based on watching and listening to video clips and colourful descriptions lead to a lively discussion and interchange of opinions. Everyone is given the chance to contribute and practice conversation skills ; new vocabulary and verb structures build up spoken confidence . The average regular attendance is eight. The hour is usually punctuated by quite a lot of laughter and then we continue for a further half an hour without the teacher to discuss a theme, tricky grammar point , short text or topical item. Continuing to see friendly faces each Tuesday has cemented our rapport and certainly developed our Spanish.
New faces with about B2 (threshold) level Spanish would be most welcome to discuss joining given its present size
Saludos cordiales
