Spanish Course for Professionals. Level B1/B2
The Spanish Course for Professionals (Level B1/B2): “Business Strategy and Management” is a twelve-unit language specialization program designed for executives, business administration students, and international professionals who need to operate with fluency and precision within the Spanish-speaking corporate ecosystem.
This course represents the leap from the operational phase to the executive and strategic phase of learning. At this level, students shift their focus from solely managing tasks to decision-making, resolving complex conflicts, and long-term planning within a global corporate environment.
Through a methodology based on the situational approach and the case method, the course merges the development of advanced linguistic skills (B1/B2) with the critical analysis of real business scenarios, such as digital transformation, sustainability, financial management, or strategic direction.
This methodological approach is grounded in teaching business Spanish through real-life corporate situations. Instead of presenting the language through isolated grammar rules or generic vocabulary, learning is articulated around an authentic business scenario.
The program is complemented by a sociolinguistic approach to idiomatic register, an appendix of real corporate documentation, a multilingual strategic glossary (Spanish - English, French, German), and an answer key for self-assessment.
To the Students
Welcome to the Spanish Course for Professionals Level B1/B2, “Business Strategy and Management,” a course aimed at all those who need to be able to operate effectively in international business environments.
This course will help you improve your Spanish to reach the B2 level (advanced independent user) of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). By reaching this level, you will be able to understand the main ideas of complex texts on both concrete and abstract topics, including technical discussions within your field of specialization. You will also be able to interact with native speakers with a sufficient degree of fluency and spontaneity, making regular communication effortless for everyone involved. Furthermore, you will be equipped to produce clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects, and explain a viewpoint on a topical issue by outlining the pros and cons of various options.
Furthermore, the course is designed both for classroom use—where dialogues can be role-played in pairs or groups, topics can be discussed, and answers to reading comprehension questions can be debated—and for individual, independent use, featuring vocabulary exercises and games, as well as grammar exercises and explanations.
I wish you all the best on your path toward your professional goals, and I hope you find this book useful and enriching.
Sincerely,
Rafael Roca González
