About the Spanish 2 course

Do you already have a basic knowledge of Spanish and want to communicate with more confidence? In this course, you’ll further expand your vocabulary and conversational skills through practical topics such as family, daily routines, food, and your surroundings. You’ll practice with everyday situations like ordering something, asking for directions, and talking about your day. This way, you’ll learn Spanish that you can use right away in daily life, while traveling, or at work.

In 9 Spanish lessons:

  • you talk about what you do and don’t like and state your preferences;
  • you talk about family and relationships;
  • ask what time it is and describe your daily schedule;
  • order food and drinks at a restaurant or café;
  • ask for directions and understand simple instructions;
  • you talk about events from the past.

In this course, you will work toward language level A1. By the end, you will speak Spanish with greater confidence in everyday situations, understand simple conversations better, and feel more comfortable responding. After completing this course, you can continue with Spanish Course 3 (A1-A2).

DELE Exam
Do you want to live, work, or study in Spain? After completing Spanish Course 2 or 3, you can take the DELE exam at the A1 level, depending on your language proficiency. The DELE exam is an official, internationally recognized certificate issued by the Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture, and Sport. You take the exam itself at an accredited testing center. Our teachers can advise you on your language level, how to prepare, and which institute to register with.

Excluding course materials

A language course is an investment in yourself. In your self-confidence. In your future in the Netherlands or beyond. That’s why we at Babel work with you to figure out the costs. You don’t always have to pay for a course yourself. Sometimes DUO helps out. Sometimes your employer does. And sometimes you get a discount. Find out what’s possible for you.

Approach

You work alternately in pairs, small groups and classrooms. The language of instruction is Spanish, so you will quickly become familiar with the language and become more confident in conversations. Of course, the teacher can also give instructions and answer questions in Dutch.

You will work with the book Aula Internacional 1, a widely used method for learning Spanish. During the course, the book will be supplemented with additional assignments and exercises. For self-study you will receive teaching materials and assignments, which will be discussed during the meetings. Before the start of the course we will inform you how you can easily order the teaching materials so that you can start your lessons well prepared.

Teachers

You will be taught by an experienced teacher who will guide you step by step. You will receive targeted feedback on pronunciation, word usage and communication. The teacher provides a safe and stimulating learning environment in which you dare to practice and make visible progress.

Certificate of Participation

Frequently asked questions

How do I know which Spanish language level suits me?

To make sure you enrol at the right level, you can take our free placement test. This test will help you assess your current level of Spanish. Once you’ve completed it, the test will be marked by one of our experienced teachers, who will provide you with personalised feedback. That way, you’ll know exactly which level suits you best.

Can I make up a missed Spanish class?

Unfortunately, in group courses it is not possible to make up a missed lesson, because the lessons take place at fixed times for the whole group. Through the lesson materials, homework and lesson plan in MyBabel, you can work through the missed material independently so that you can continue to follow the course well.

Can I pay for my Spanish course in installments?

You pay the course fee in a single payment. You can do this upon registration via iDEAL, credit card, or by having your employer pay the invoice.

Can I take the DELE exam?

Do you want to live, work or study in Spain? After the Spanish 2 or 3 course, you can take the DELE exam at A1 level, depending on your language level. The DELE exam is an official, internationally recognized diploma from the Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport. You will take the exam itself at a recognized exam institute. Our teachers can advise you about your language level, how to prepare and at which institute to register.

What are the advantages of a group language course?

A group language course offers the opportunity to learn and practice with others. You benefit from interactive lessons, learn from the questions and experiences of fellow students, and have plenty of opportunity to use the language actively. In addition, the group dynamic often provides extra motivation and a pleasant learning environment.

What is a virtual classroom?

A virtual classroom is a live online language course in which you take lessons together with a teacher and other students. You participate via Zoom or Teams, for example, and actively practice during the lesson. This combines the interaction of a group lesson with the convenience of online learning. Many students choose this form because of its flexibility.
