Fridays 9:00-10:25 am

Class Description: This advanced Spanish 5 course is aimed at furthering the development of students’ grammar, oral, and listening skills through the discussion of topics presented by a carefully selected series in Netflix in Spanish, and a book. The instructor will conduct classroom sessions entirely in Spanish based on a series on Netflix or a book  that inspires discussion and analysis of the topics. 

Instruction: The instructor will conduct the class in Spanish. Often, grammatical and usage points come up during discussions, and the instructor may from time to time incorporate brief grammatical explanations in English into the conversation, but this is not a grammar class, and the focus will be on refining verbal-communication skills in Spanish.

Prerequisite: Spanish 4 or equivalant
