Level 1 (Beginner) requires no prior language experience but getting used to new sounds and spellings can take practice. After an introduction, this level covers nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs, conjunctions, prepositions, present/preterite/imperfect/progressive tenses, and formal commands. Students may want to take some time with the introduction until they are comfortable with the sounds of the language, then proceed to the actual lessons.
