7 Things You’ll Learn in a 4-Week Online Spanish Course

Did you know there are over 430 million Spanish speakers worldwide? If you’re traveling to a Spanish-speaking country this summer, learning the language (or brushing up on what you already know) can help you communicate clearly and have an authentic experience abroad.

But, isn’t learning a new language difficult and time-consuming? It doesn’t have to be. Our VIVA LA LENGUA™ online course teaches students how to speak confidently, clearly, and effectively in Spanish — all in 4 weeks and from the comfort of your home.

If you’re ready to have an authentic travel experience in Spain, Mexico, Cuba, or other Spanish-speaking countries this summer, here are 7 things you can expect to learn in this online Spanish course:

The Basics

We’ll start with the basics. Whether you’re a complete beginner or speak Spanish occasionally with relatives, having a solid foundation about basic grammar will ensure a successful Spanish learning experience. Our basic grammar review is a workbook provided to every student, and covers everything from articles to verb tenses.

Navigate Day-to-Day Life Activities in Spanish

Building on the basics, we’ll review how to articulate your daily routines in Spanish. You’ll learn  how to navigate everyday activities like going to the bank or ordering the perfect cup of coffee.

Communicate While Traveling

An effective Spanish course will teach you how to communicate abroad and at home. With  VIVA LA LENGUA™, you’ll learn how to ask for directions, flight details, and other travel-related essentials.

Authentic Conversation

There’s more to learning a language than vocabulary. Knowing how to engage in conversational small talk is also essential. That’s why VIVA LA LENGUA™ teaches idioms and idiosyncrasies for different Spanish-speaking areas, including Central America, South America, Spain, and the Caribbean. No matter where your travels or work takes you, you’ll be able to communicate conversationally.

Tell Your Story

You may find yourself in conversation that goes beyond casual chit chat. So how do you tell your new Spanish-speaking friends more about you? What do you do at home? Why do you love to travel? VIVA LA LENGUA™ will teach you how to tell your story and share opinions confidently so you can build meaningful relationships around the globe.

Read, Watch,  Listen

While speaking Spanish is essential to an authentic travel experience in Spanish-speaking countries, so is knowing how to read, watch, and listen. VIVA LA LENGUA™ will teach you how to consume Spanish-language resources and media with purpose and interpret it like a local.

Networking in your industry

Learning Spanish can be just as useful at home as it is abroad. According to an MIT study, you can expect to make around 2% more money just by knowing how to speak Spanish. That may not sound like much, but if your annual salary is $40,000, that totals to an extra $800 per year, and an extra $4,000 over 5 years!

Authentic travel experiences and a few extra bucks at work? That sounds like a worthwhile investment!
