    Description
    This course is designed for heritage speakers of Spanish, or other linguistically qualified students, who speak Spanish and who need to improve their writing, reading, and grammar skills. Emphasis is on the mastery of written and spoken communication skills in Spanish at the intermediate level, and the study of Spanish-speaking cultures through relevant, authentic materials in context. The course includes a focus on language challenges particular to Spanish speakers, such as orthography, the inappropriate mix of English and Spanish, and contrasts between standard Spanish and regional variations. This course is conducted entirely in Spanish. Limitation on Enrollment: This course is not open to students with previous credit for Spanish 201.
