Basic 1 is a relatively relaxed course designed for those beginning in their study of the Spanish language. We welcome students interested in Spanish-speaking societies and cultures, who wish to engage in multilingual education including Spanish, as well as those aspiring to broaden their career options through the acquisition of this language. The Spanish courses at SFC is not divided into the traditional "grammar" and "communication" modules, and emphasises the importance of integrating both aspects through active learning approach. This requires participation of students in classes. Although this is a "Basic" course, we will still proceed at a relatively high speed, and students are expected to secure sufficient amount of self-study time outside classes to assure the thorough understanding of newly-learned expressions and vocabularies. Spanish Basic 1, together with Basic 2, corresponds to the level A1 in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). We are experimenting with multi-language teaching, and are happy to accept GIGA students with developing knowledge of Japanese.
