SPANISH GOALS IN OUR SHORT FILM AT

For over 10 years Speakeasy has been helping students from around the world learn Spanish with breakthrough results using our unique CASA program.

HERE’S A CLOSER LOOK AT EACH FLOOR:Floor 6. Advanced Level You did it! Here you’ll extend your vocabulary even further as you put into practice the conversational skills and grammar you have learned.

Floor 5. High Intermediate Level You are close to the final level! At this point you have acquired a good knowledge of Spanish which you’ll improve by expressing your opinion about national and international news.

Floor 4. Intermediate Level On the fourth floor, you’ll start learning el subjuntivo a key feature of Spanish grammar. Plus you’ll also strengthen your speaking skills as you express yourself more and more.

Floor 3. Low-Intermediate Level You are halfway there! Here you’ll learn to com-municate in a wider range of social contexts as you develop your vocabulary and grammar further. Floor 2. Pre-Intermediate Level You have reached the second floor! Now you’ll learn how to express your past and future plans around a series of different topics.

Floor 1. Beginner Level Here you’ll learn the basics of everyday life. What’s the weather forecast? What should I say in a supermarket? What should I say to book a room in a hostel?

By studying with us you’ll be encouraged to listen, speak, read and write only in the language that you’re learning. This total immer-sion method creates a highly effective learning environment in which our students build their Spanish language ability floor by floor.Let’s imagine that learning Spanish is like building a house with different floors. You can’t build the next floor if the one below is not complete. That’s why our CASA program has 6 levels that help you build your Span-ish language from beginner right through to advanced.
