Spanish

Course summary

Spanish is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world and the study of this and any other foreign language is considered to be one of the most rigorously academic subjects you can choose to study. Universities and employers look very favourably on people who have studied languages to an advanced level as this shows that they are good communicators, hardworking, resilient, risk takers with open minds and the ability to memorise and multi-task – all very sought-after attributes in our modern working world. Spanish at A- Level will build on your GCSE knowledge and understanding of the language and take you to the highest level of understanding and communicating with Spanish speakers. You will not just develop your language skills, but you will learn lots about the culture and traditions of many Spanish speaking countries. Just think of all the amazing possibilities that will be open to you as a Spanish speaker: travelling or living and working abroad and being able to interact with people on all levels. Furthermore, once you have learnt “how to learn” Spanish, learning more languages is far easier for you. The world is your oyster!
