This course is intended for those students whose first language is Spanish, but who have had little or no formal instruction in the language. The course is appropriate for those who lack the necessary skills to read and/or write Spanish at the level required to be considered literate in the language. If you speak Spanish at home or with your friends, but find that you cannot communicate as well in it as you can in English, and feel more comfortable expressing yourself in the latter, this course is for you. The course is conducted in Spanish.
