A-level Spanish (AQA)

If being able to speak one of the most common languages in the world and communicate in twenty countries sounds appealing to you, then you’re in the right place. There’s a reason why A-level Spanish is the most popular foreign language – it’s highly prized by employers around the world, as well as universities.

AQA A-Level Spanish – what you’ll learn

You’ll learn much more than simply how to speak Spanish; you’ll develop the ability to understand different dialects, and you’ll even examine economic, social, and cultural differences between northern and southern Spain. You’ll immerse yourself in Spanish culture, looking at attitudes towards topics such as marriage, divorce, and families. You’ll practise reading, writing, and speaking Spanish, focusing on the topics of politics, immigration, media, cultural celebrations and Hispanic communities. You’ll prepare for your A-Level Spanish exam with well-structured assignments, unlimited tutor support, and the ability to work at your own pace, developing your skills and knowledge to prepare you for your exams.
