Spring teaching
This module is for students who can already communicate with some independence in Spanish.
Building on existing levels of proficiency at level A2+-B1 of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR), the module aims to:
- enable you to understand key information and to communicate effectively in Spanish, sometimes spontaneously, in less routine situations at a standard level
- provide opportunities across a variety of topics to practice understanding and communicating in Spanish using the four language skills of listening, reading, speaking and writing, at a standard level
- consolidate and develop the range of key elements of the structures, vocabulary, syntax and pronunciation of Spanish, to allow continued progression
- present the background culture and society of the Spanish-speaking world through contextualised activities and materials in a range of media, eg text, audio, audiovisual, and digital.
Successfully completing of the module is equivalent to level B1 of the CEFR for Languages.

Contact hours and workload
This module is approximately 150 hours of work. This breaks down into about 33 hours of contact time and about 117 hours of independent study. The University may make minor variations to the contact hours for operational reasons, including timetabling requirements.
We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2026/27. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.
We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
