I'd like to learn spanish - does anybody know of any courses/tutors in Sheffield? Cheers.

I would like to learn Spanish too especially as I'm planning on moving to Tenerife in the near(ish) future!

Try to pm carla she was teaching spanish classes.
Its on another thread somewhere.

Would love to do it myself just far too lazy at the moment need to give myself a good kick.:D

Just done a search.she doesn't seem to have posted in ages:sad:

The Institute for Lifelong Learning at the university does a few courses, including Spanish, although from the looks of their site they tend to run them from September (although I could be mistaken - just took a quick glance), so I don't know how useful they would be for you.

they run the same turn times as uni. Spanish goes quickly though (I tried to get on a course last year)

Firth Park and Castle College used to have basic travellers Spanish for about £130 unless you were on benefits.

Sheffield University are running intensive language courses in June.
Prices: University students £75, University staff £125 and members of the public £155. Applications by 27 May.

King Edwards school does evening classes

unfortunately the IT department is useless and they have no website

their number will be on the net somewhere

I've just checked out the Sheffield Uni. Dates for this are Monday 6th - Friday 10th June, Monday 20th - Friday 24th June (either 10am - 1pm or 2pm - 5pm). Sounds good, but unfortunately I am at work during the week so they aren't any good for me. I'm going to check the course at King Edwards.
Cheers for replying to this!:thumbsup:

You can do Spanish/French courses through Learndirect. These are partially funded and are home study on CD Rom together with some interaction with your tutor. You can start anytime. Go to www.learndirect.co.uk and choose centres, followed by your postcode and it will give the nearest centre. Not all centres run the courses, my centre on Sharrowvale Road does.

I Know somebody who is experienced in teaching spanish at all levels - basic to degree. I don't know what the cost would be off the top of my head but could find out. She also happens to be a Uni. lecturer in Hispanic lit.....just in case you're worrying about credentials.
If you're interested let me know.

apparently I need to have had 5 posts before replying to any messages so here is my 4th

and here is my 5th....hopefully I'm now able to access the messaging service!!

I didn't know that. I replied to your pm but it's not showing up in my sent items maybe I need a couple more posts as I don't think that I have posted 5 times.

One more post for good luck!

Joe, I pm'ed you earlier with some details, let me know if you have received them. Thanks
Jayne

Thanks to everyone who has posted and pm'ed me about this. I have now found a Tutor to teach me Spanish (through SF) and take my first lesson this week. Adios:wave:
