Basic Spanish for Beginners

SPAN 101

Welcome to SLANG Global’s Online Spanish and Cultures Pilot Cohort, a 4-week virtual learning experience designed for students who want to begin learning Spanish while also exploring culture, history, and identity across Latin America and the African diaspora.

This course is not just about vocabulary and grammar. It is also about connection. Students will be introduced to very basic Spanish through a live online class led by a teacher with a Hispanic background who will also share personal experiences, cultural knowledge, and reflections on life in Latin America. The course will also highlight connections between Latin America, the African diaspora, and West Africa, making this a unique learning experience rooted in language, culture, and global understanding.

Each class is designed to be light, welcoming, and accessible. Students can expect beginner-level Spanish instruction, cultural conversation, simple assignments, and selected readings or videos that support what is discussed in class.

  • learn beginner Spanish words, phrases, and simple conversation basics
