With more than 33 million Spanish speakers in the USA alone, Hispanic culture is increasingly significant. This course enhances your ability to appreciate the complexity of Hispanic culture across two continents. The course is about learning to speak, read and write Spanish by using the medium of culture. Vocabulary and grammatical structures are presented in the context of culturally relevant topics. Topics may include: language and communication, belief systems, and the environment.

The language of instruction is Spanish. We are the first university in Australia using the innovative online coaching program which offers you a unique opportunity to work outside of class with a personal, native-speaker language coach in a real time, online learning environment. We hope that this unique personal experience will be truly enjoyable and will motivate you to continue learning Spanish.
