On-line Spanish Courses
Offered in Conjunction with Web Spanish Tutor (WST)

Elementary Spanish | Intermediate Spanish | Advanced Spanish |
Medical Spanish | Register

We are partnering with Web Spanish Tutor (WST) to offer you the opportunity to learn the Spanish language from the convenience of your home.

If you want to learn the language or master it, or the courses that you take in your school/university are just not enough, you must take these Spanish classes. These lessons are unique. They offer explanatory insight into the structure of the language. You gain mastery of the language rather than a mere memorizing of phrases and mimicking patterns.

Registrants have the option of signing up for either Elementary Spanish, Intermediate Spanish,or Advanced Spanish. These are noncredit certification classes--registrants will receive a certificate upon successful completion.
