Spanish Language and Culture Review

Catalog description

This course is designed to reinforce and refine students’ written and oral proficiency in Spanish as preparation for advanced coursework. Emphasizing a communicative approach, we focus on grammar review, stylistic accuracy, and appropriate linguistic register. Through active participation and engagement with a variety of cultural texts and short stories from the Spanish-speaking world, students will deepen their cultural understanding while developing more advanced speaking and writing skills. Students engage critically with issues such as cultural identity, domestic violence, and migration, as they are invited to question assumptions, biases, and worldviews that influence how we perceive and represent others .
