This class will focus on basic grammar and will have teach you to say things and ask questions in the present tense and more. No homework, or tests. Just sit back, listen, and participate with your classmates as we do exercises and speak in Spanish to each other. It’s an easy way to learn how to speak the second most spoken language in America. Learning a foreign language has also been shown to delay or reduce the onset of dementia.
