About SPAN 102: First Year Spanish II
Spanish 101 and 102 prepare students to achieve basic proficiency in the language and understanding of Hispanic cultures. Spanish 101 begins this process of building and developing the new language system by engaging students in learning activities that address listening, reading, writing and speaking through independent study. SPAN 102 is the continued study of pronunciation and fundamental grammatical principles through the development of skill in listening comprehension and speaking, followed by practice in reading and writing. By the end of the course, students will have acquired familiarity not only with present tense, but will have learned to use preterite and imperfect tenses to describe the past, They will be able to communicate with basic commands and give advice or directions with the subjunctive tense.
