Next month’s ‘Charla’ (online conversation class)
Charla, Thursday October 1, 6.30pm:
Why talk about olives and olive oil? Hate the stuff?
Olives are in the background of Spanish society from trees marking out the landscape to olives as tapas and foods. We’re in harvesting time, a perfect time to think about the humble olive, because from international trade to land use, from field to fork, there’s a lot to talk about!
Book in advance and I’ll ensure that you receive the lovely content I have planned for this month
From online Bingo to help learners dominate numbers to discussions about tapas and olive groves, Classes with Claire brings you the opportunities to experience Spanish in more ways than simply a classroom.

Thursday September 3, 6.30pm - 45 mins
You can’t go many places without paying - which offers us the perfect chance to go shopping, virtually!
Try out your Spanish as you negotiate the shops and markets of Spain, in Spanish! Whether you’re a shopaholic or just grab the basics and run, this class will help you feel confident about finding the bread in aisle three, asking what that weird vegetable in the market is, or finding the designer bargain of the year in the smart streets of Madrid or Barcelona.
The topic gives us a theme to work with. Classes with Claire brings the (fun) structure.
You just make yourself comfortable and turn up. Spend virtual millions or keep a tight clasp on your wallet - either way knowing how and what to pay is easier when you know how.

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!Item description

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!
