About the Spanish curriculum

The Spanish curriculum is a complete, self-paced course in languages, organised into 3 progressive levels and 9 modules. It opens with Foundations of Pronunciation & stress and Core methods in Gender & articles, moves through Applying Present-tense verbs and finishes with expert-level work on Leading practice in Writing short texts and Mastering Hispanic cultures.

Across the whole path you work through 27 individual topics — from Pronunciation & stress and Putting pronunciation & stress to work at the start to Hands-on: hispanic cultures and Common pitfalls in hispanic cultures by the end. The levels are estimated at 6 weeks · about 24 hours, 8 weeks · about 32 hours and 10 weeks · about 40 hours. Each level assumes the one before it, so you can work straight through from Intermediate to Expert, or start at the level that matches what you already know.

It is designed for learners who want usable fluency and clear explanation, not phrase-book memorisation. Practice is cumulative: each module adds structures you immediately reuse, with models, errors to avoid and short production tasks.

Every module pairs a written summary with a worked example, a short quiz to check the idea landed, and a project brief drawn from real practice. You are never asked to take a concept on trust: the reasoning, the common mistakes and the situations where the approach stops working are all laid out, so you finish a module able to explain the idea rather than only recognise it.

By the end of the Spanish path you should be able to work confidently with:

Pronunciation & stress

Putting pronunciation & stress to work

Checking your understanding of pronunciation & stress

Intermediate Spanish

Start with Pronunciation & stress, Gender & articles and Present-tense verbs. Each module explains the idea, shows a worked example and ends with a short project, so Spanish becomes something you can do rather than something you have only read about.

Modules: Foundations of Pronunciation & stress · Core methods in Gender & articles · Applying Present-tense verbs

  • Pronunciation & stress: This module treats Pronunciation & stress as a tool: the question it answers, what it assumes, and what a correct use of it looks like in Spanish.
  • Putting pronunciation & stress to work: Pronunciation & stress is introduced from first principles, with the few terms you actually need and an example that shows how the idea behaves in practice.
  • Checking your understanding of pronunciation & stress: This module treats Pronunciation & stress as a tool: the question it answers, what it assumes, and what a correct use of it looks like in Spanish.

Project: Write a one-page explanation of Pronunciation & stress in your own words, with an example you chose yourself, and test it against the module checklist.

Advanced 8 weeks · about 32 hours 3 modules 9 topics

Advanced Spanish

Build on the intermediate level through Past tenses, Conversation practice and Thematic vocabulary. The emphasis shifts from knowing the ideas to choosing between them — trade-offs, failure modes and the reasoning behind each decision.

Modules: In depth Past tenses · Patterns and trade-offs in Conversation practice · Scaling Thematic vocabulary

  • Past tenses: Past tenses is pushed past the textbook case: competing approaches, their trade-offs and the situations where each one breaks down.
  • Putting past tenses to work: The module examines Past tenses closely, including the assumptions beneath it and what changes when those assumptions stop holding.
  • Common pitfalls in past tenses: Past tenses is pushed past the textbook case: competing approaches, their trade-offs and the situations where each one breaks down.

Project: Produce a short case analysis in which Past tenses drives the recommendation, including the alternatives you rejected and why.

Expert 10 weeks · about 40 hours 3 modules 9 topics

Expert Spanish

Work at the edge of Spanish through Reading practice, Writing short texts and Hispanic cultures. The modules assume fluency and ask for judgement: designing, critiquing and defending work at a professional standard.

Modules: Frontiers of Reading practice · Leading practice in Writing short texts · Mastering Hispanic cultures

  • Reading practice: At expert level Reading practice is treated as a field of judgement: current practice, contested positions and the evidence behind each.
  • Hands-on: reading practice: Reading practice is examined at the frontier, with an emphasis on open problems, rigorous argument and decisions you can defend.
  • Common pitfalls in reading practice: At expert level Reading practice is treated as a field of judgement: current practice, contested positions and the evidence behind each.
