Introduction Spanish Discussion SIG
This group is designed for Osher members who have a basic-to-intermediate knowledge of Spanish and wish to improve their conversational and listening skills. The group focuses on speaking, listening, and reading, with an emphasis on building vocabulary, sharpening knowledge of everyday usage and idioms, and improving grammatical usage, through directed conversation, readings, and grammar exercises. All members of the group take turns on a weekly basis developing lessons, relying upon the books (designated below) of readings, grammar and vocabulary exercises, and internet resources.
People registering for this group should have these books on the first day of class: — 101 Conversations in Simple Spanish: Short Natural Dialogues to Boost Your Confidence & Improve Your Spoken Spanish (Spanish Edition) by Olly Richards — is available for Kindle for $3.99 or in paperback for $14.99. — The Ultimate Spanish Review and Practice Book is available from Amazon for $20.00. It’s a good investment and will serve for many years to come as we continue this group. It’s a very helpful reference book. Questions may be directed to Harvey Kurtz at hkurtz@ameritech.net.
