This course follows on from the Spanish Beginners A course. The Beginners B course is for those who are not complete beginners. The main aim is to help you to ‘get by’ in a Spanish speaking environment. This may be a good place for those “Rusty” beginners who have learned very little Spanish but have also got the confidence to work at a slightly faster pace than the Spanish Beginners A course.
You will become more confident in spoken Spanish in a range of everyday situations covering topics relevant to both home and work life including:

• relationships

• daily routine

• food

• transport and holidays

You will build on the introduction to basic grammar covered in the previous course and deepen your ability to understand and apply a range of grammatical concepts including tenses and word order. You will also be looking at and picking out the main points from short texts on contemporary subjects.

Please note there will be no class on 17/02/2026.In order to avoid disappointment, it is advisable to enrol at least 2 ½ weeks prior to the course starting. We will confirm course information two weeks prior to the start date.

There are vending machines available where hot/cold drinks and snacks can be purchased, and watercoolers on site making it easy to refill your water bottle. Please report to Reception on arrival. A photo-id will be issued, for you to wear when you attend classes.

Spanish - Beginners Level C
Entry criteria
There are no formal entry requirements for this course. The standard approximates to the Common European Framework Level A1. It is strongly recommended however for those who are new to the language that you have completed the Spanish Beginners A course. If you are a “rusty” beginner, it is recommended that you speak to one of our tutors who will be able to assess the appropriate level of course for you.
Fee information
A textbook is used to accompany the course, but it is optional to buy this (average cost £20 - £25). The textbook will support your learning for at least 1 year. You may also like to buy a small dictionary. Your tutor will be able to advise you at the first session.

As part of your course we may organise trips to assist you with your learning. Trips are optional, and you will not be penalised if you choose not to participate.

There are bursaries available to help you with other course costs. Call 01235 216 212 for more information.

The rules on fee reduction are complicated and we would encourage you to talk to our Admissions staff on 01235 216 400 to discuss your options. You can find more information on our Fees and Bursaries page - search "Fees and Bursaries" at the top of the page.
