Details about this class
Students are highly recommended to take SPA 101 and SPA 111C simultaneously.
SPA 111C is a one-credit conversation course that meets twice a week for 25 minutes (50 min/week). For this particular SPA 101 (CRN 11680), your recommended 111C is CRN 12003, Mondays and Wednesdays from 9:00am to 9:25am. This conversation class meets right before your 101, and it’s taught by the same instructor.
Why should I take SPA 111C? In the conversation class, you will have an opportunity to practice what you are learning in SPA 101. You will be working on your listening and speaking skills with classmates, with your instructor’s guidance and support. Students who don’t take 111C will have 10 hours less of practice of the Spanish language than the classmates who take 111C. 101 + 111C is the perfect combination to develop your communicative skills (listening and speaking), and communication is the main goal of our SPA program.
