01. Who is this course for?
This 5-week course will give you a taste of the language you want to learn. You will be introduced to a range of basic phrases that you will be able to use in practical situations. The emphasis will be on having fun and speaking the language through interactive activities. The 5 sessions will encourage you and give you the confidence to “have a go”. You will also discover a little about the country/countries where the language is spoken, and their people. This course is followed by a 23-week Beginners Moving on (Year 1) course, on which we recommend you to enrol at the same time if possible.

A range of basic words and phrases covering topics such as: • Exchanging greetings • Introducing yourself and others • Sharing information about yourself and others • Ordering food & drink in cafés/restaurants
