ChiFRA

The new session of Spanish classes started on September 13th and will run until December.  There’s still room at most levels so anyone who’s interested in improving their Spanish please contact us at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .  

ChiFRA's autumn session of Spanish language classes will begin on 13 September and run for 12 weeks.  Students who were involved in the last session have already been contacted but if you are interested in attending there are currently places available at all levels. We are trying to hold the cost down to 50 euros but this will only be possible if there are enough students in each class. The venue is likley to be the classroom at the PSOE building that we’ve used for the past two sessions.

The current plan (tentative) is to have Jackie’s Level 1 on Wednesdays starting at 10:00 – one or two classes, depending on the number of students.  Flori’s Levels 2 & 3 will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10-1130 and 1145-1315 (probably one of each level on each day?) and Jose Enrique’s Level 4 class will be on Friday at 0915. (see level information below)

We will continue to update this section with the  current information regarding  cost, day/times, venue, etc.

Level One/Basic – a true “starter’s” class. You will be taught as if you have VERY LITTLE Spanish capability/experience. There was a notable demand for this level.
 
Level Two/Pre-intermediate – for the student who is not a “true starter” and has some basic experience and perhaps previous instruction. You have a basic vocabulary and understand some degree of verb categories and tenses. Taught mostly in English with some Spanish explanations, etc. included.
 
Level Three/Intermediate – for the student who is speaking Spanish, but not well. This student should be able to put together phrases with a variety of verb tenses. They have a pretty good vocabulary and are looking to start putting things together more correctly. The course will be taught mostly in Spanish, with limited English backup
 
Level Four/Advanced (?) – for the student who speaks Spanish pretty well. Speaks in full sentences with mostly correct verb usage/tenses. These students will have a very good vocabulary and WANT to be able to speak correctly using the appropriate tenses/number/gender, etc. The course will include considerable conversation and will be taught completely in Spanish.
 

ChiFRA Spanish classes are wrapping up for the 2011 spring session.  This was the third 12-week session of the classes and the second for which we made an extension of at least some of the classes.  This time we had seven different classes of varying levels from basic to advanced.  The one month extension was made for the advanced class and one of the intermediate level classes.  We have increased our teacher pool to three with the addition of Jose Enrique Vidal from Rosa do los Vientos school, who taught the advanced class.  His students have great things to say about him.

ChiFRA's third session of Spanish language classes started on Monday 7th February with levels for beginner, pre-intermediate, intermediate and advanced abilities.
There are places available at all levels so if you are interested in joining the course, please contact us at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it for details.
