Spanish is spoken by over 400 million people worldwide and across a wide range of cultures. The University of Dundee Diploma in Spanish for Teachers by Distance Learning has been designed to respond to the growing need for Spanish teachers in the UK and worldwide in Primary, Secondary, Further or Adult Education.
The Diploma offers many advantages in that it allows you to study when and where you like, for as long as you like. It is designed to promote a lively, on-line learning community studying the Spanish language and hispanic culture. A high degree of support is provided by native speaker tutors.
The course is delivered via the internet and takes the form of private study and interactive tasks in discussion with tutors and fellow students. There are also regular Immersion Days at Dundee throughout the course.
