Let’s Speak Spanish!

Registration is now open for two late-start eight-week courses: Spanish 1 and Spanish 1S. These classes will start on October 21, 2024.

Why Spanish? There are over 400 million Spanish speakers around the world and the United States is the home of the second largest Spanish-speaking population surpassed only by Mexico. Latines are the largest minority in the States, and the majority speak Spanish. By learning Spanish for the first time or studying it formally for the first time, you’ll be able to better communicate with Spanish speakers in the States and around the world. Spanish on your resume enhances your job opportunities in many areas from the field of education, the medical field, journalism, and many more career pathways. Your language skills in Spanish enable you to gain important insights that monolinguals cannot. Also, traveling to a Spanish-speaking countries goes to another level when you know the language. Lastly, speaking more than one language keeps our memory sharp. Let's go! Speaking Spanish is a Super Skill attached to a beautiful and diverse culture that expands over four continents.

At Mt.SAC we offer Spanish for those learning it for the first time and those who grew up in a Spanish-speaking home but did not study the language formally in school. Spanish courses are a Humanities class.

If you speak Spanish at home, we invite you to register in Spanish for Spanish Speakers (Spanish 1S). If you are new to Spanish, join Spanish for Beginners (Spanish 1).
