The Spanish Conversation course is very informal: we chat about whatever topics come along – avoiding religion and politics. The coordinator will lead the conversation, with stops for grammar or vocabulary questions, as needed. If you have at least a little fluency this course will improve your Spanish. We also welcome participants who only want to listen and would rather not speak, at least at first... The coordinator promises a relaxed, pleasant, and informative few hours of practicing Spanish.

Format: There are no formal assignments, but the coordinator may ask you to prepare a short (one minute or less) topic to get a conversation started. Class members will participate whenever they wish during every session. I may ask participants questions about themselves, to get conversations started. The meetings are very informal, so people can speak, ask each other questions, etc., all designed to increase fluency.

Resources/Expenses: No expenses anticipated. No text required, but participants can explore the Internet for any number of places to learn Spanish and may share what they find with the group.
