Spanish III

Spanish III will continue to build on the foundational blocks of Spanish I and II. Participants will continue to develop their proficiency in speaking, listening, writing, and reading by interacting with each other and the instructor. Through practice in class and homework assignments, participants will grow their vocabulary and move forward into other verb tenses. There will be a key focus on reading and writing proficiency in Spanish as well. We’ll try to use Spanish as lingua franca of the class and enhance the learning process out side of classes limits. Bienvenidos!

Instructor: P.A. (Pan) Angelopoulos

Instructor Bio: I’m an active theater director and professor of acting, theater history, and theory of direction. I worked professionally as an actor and director of theater and television in Greece, but also in Spain where I established myself after 1993. I was involved to various initiatives connected to the University of Barcelona and with contemporary interpretations of ancient drama for high school and university students. I translated various fiction and theatrical books and I worked as an interpreter for various companies. For the last 9 years, since my arrival in the U.S., I have been an integral part of Cornell’s PMA Department, hired part-time as a senior lecturer, teaching theater, Spanish, and theater in Spanish.
