This course aims to improve reading, listening and, especially, speaking and writing skills through a Hispanic cultural approach. It is focused on both linguistic and cultural learning to achieve a proper communication and interaction with native people. Hence, it is designed to develop the intercultural competence in order to facilitate the understanding and the respect of different ways of living and thinking. Throughout the semester, we will explore the politics, social structures, traditions, artistic movements and historic periods of Latin America and, in particular, of Peru.
