Trident Learning

This course reviews and builds upon language structure and grammatical skills previously acquired to ensure a good foundation before undertaking the more specialised aspects of the Business Communication modules. The emphasis is placed on task-based language learning to develop written proficiency in areas of personal interest and in familiar contexts relevant both to countries of the target language and the Caribbean.

This introductory language course provides students with the language skills and the social and cultural awareness needed to develop oral proficiency at the beginners' level. The course will enable students to use Spanish to function in social and business contexts common to the office. It will focus primarily on the oral-aural registers but also provides reading comprehension and limited writing exposure.

This course is designed to give the students confidence in communicating with Spanish-speaking guests in situations occurring mainly in the Hospitality Industry in a Caribbean setting and to develop fluency in the use of simple language required for giving information pertinent to a guest's stay in the island. The course addresses oral competency and aural comprehension of a limited range in the target language in common hotel situations and contexts.
