Love them or hate them, olives are always somewhere in the background in Spain.

The trees mark the landscape.

In meals, served as tapas, and made into some of the best olive oil in the World, we shouldn’t take for granted the humble olive and the work that goes into creating it.

And how do you tell good olive oil?

Book well in advance for this charla: a week before you’ll be emailed an information pack with information about olives and olive oil to keep the discussion lively and make this charla a learning journey that’s about so much more than a humble olive!

(In Spanish, of course)

Notes:

• Classes are via Zoom - no need to download, but check you can access camera and - more importantly - microphone on your device.

• Latecomers may join up to 10 minutes late, maximum. After this, no access will be allowed.

• If you miss a booked class we can change you to another scheduled session on a one off basis.

• For this ‘charla’, I recommend you look at the materials in advance if you have time to make the most of the conversation.

A brilliant way to get those numbers in Spanish licked - join us for our monthly game of Bingo online.

The prize is an online event of your choice - and improving your Spanish of course.

It’ll be fun, and a great way to help those numbers come back to you - eventually without even thinking about it.

It’s fabulous knowing what we know. We can ask for directions, a product, where something’s been put. And if we don’t know, there’s always Google Translate.

BUT accents and very fast talking can make understanding the answer hard for the non-native Spanish speaker. So how are we going to ask people to slow down or help us understand them better?

The topic gives us a theme for discussion. Classes with Claire brings the (fun) structure to help you ask for help without simply relying on hand gestures or hoping someone else understood what they were saying.

You just make yourself comfortable and turn up - this is the one class where you deliberately get stuck and work your way around it!
