Department of Spanish and Portuguese

Prerequisite:  HISP-S 200 or appropriate placement score

Note: HISP- S251 is equivalent to HISP-S 250. This course specifically designed for Heritage Speakers, who are students that grew up speaking/hearing Spanish at home or in their communities.

This is the first class of the Spanish as a Heritage Language series. The class focuses on the practicing of Spanish across modalities with an emphasis on building confidence by discussing identity and exploring individual, social, and historical contexts. Students will deepen their knowledge of their cultural heritage and develop an appreciation for the cultural and linguistic variation present in the Spanish-speaking world.
