Synopsis

A lively and popular textbook teaching Spanish to post-beginners working in a classroom setting. A diverse range of dialogues, and reading passages deliver new material which is carefully practised in a wide variety of imaginative exercises, both individually and in pair- and groupwork, and backed up by structured grammatical underpinning and exercises. A substantial self-study section offers practice material for homework and revision, and for extension purposes. All the audio is available free-to-access as MP3 files online.

Foundations Languages courses are tailor-made for undergraduates and other students on Institution-wide Languages Programmes (IWLPs), languages options and electives, ab initio and minor routes in languages, and open learning programmes at universities and in Adult Education. Foundations Spanish 2 is ideal for students with some basic GCSE or other beginner's knowledge. It can be used as a successor to Foundations Spanish 1, or following any similar beginner's course.

Foundations Spanish 2 is a lively, interactive post-beginner's Spanish course. The book follows on neatly from the end of Foundations Spanish 1 but does not presuppose any familiarity with the specific content of the first book.

• Designed specifically for IWLPs (including language options and electives, Languages for all, Open Learning Programmes and similar) so fits into the 20-24 week teaching year
• Top team of series editor and authors with wide experience of IWLPs
• A lively, creative classroom course with integrated pairwork and groupwork opportunities
• Scripted and unscripted dialogues provide a diverse range of audio material
• Contains a comprehensive self-study section for non-contact hours
• Written for the non-specialist HE/FE student – filled with relevant examples for the learner, a move away from the more tourist-based approach often found in language courses
• Focus on both Spain and Latin America
