Course Overview

Online Spanish Levels 3&4 is an Elementary Spanish course for students who have already studied some Spanish. This is an intensive Spanish course allowing you to take two Spanish levels in 10 weeks and progress more quickly. Online Spanish Levels 3&4 requires that you have previously studied Spanish Level 2 or a course of at least 24 class hours. If you’re unsure of your level, then take our language test here, or check our level chart.

Our Online Spanish language classes take place via Zoom with a qualified, experienced teacher and fellow students. The interactive lessons emulate our face-to-face classes, and via teacher screen-sharing, students are able to experience a live classroom environment. From vocabulary activities and covering grammar points on the white board, to listening exercises, file sharing and ‘break-out rooms’ to practise speaking with classmates, students can learn without leaving the comfort of their homes. Take a look at an example of one of our online classes in this video.
